Re: [LIS-Forum] LIS-Forum Digest, Vol 240, Issue 6 : Sad demise of Dr Ishwar Bhat
by Yalagouda M Patil 24 Apr '23

24 Apr '23

Extremely saddened to hear the sad demise of Dr Ishwar Bhat. We were class fellows during BLISc course at KUD during 1971-1972 and he secured 1st Rank. He served in British Council Libraries, BITS, Pilani and Presidency University as a Chief Librarian and Pro-Vice Chancellor. He established him-self as one of the leading library professionals. He always used to say KUD library science products are made of entirely different fabrics Pray God to give strength to the bereaved family and let his soul rest in peace. Y M Patil Retd Librarian, RRI, Bengaluru.

Open science in France and India
by Subbiah Arunachalam 21 Apr '23

21 Apr '23

Friends, Rob Johnson <https://twitter.com/rschrobUK> @rschrobUK <https://twitter.com/rschrobUK> says in a tweet, "The new French Open Science Monitor is a model of good #openscience <https://twitter.com/hashtag/openscience?src=hashtag_click> practice (open method, data, code, downloads available in multiple formats), as well as having lots of pretty graphs to play around with. Well worth a look! Please see https://frenchopensciencemonitor.esr.gouv.fr/?id=publishers.type-ouverture. The French Ministry of Higher Education and Research deserves to be congratulated. Let us hope DST's CHORD (NSTMIS) Division and the Department of Higher Education in the Ministry/UGC will soon come up with such reports and pleasing infographics. Or one of our enterprising LIS professionals may write a paper on the status of open science in India.
