FW: Book/journals acquisition procedure
by Tejasvini.Ranadive＠ril.com 17 Feb '11

17 Feb '11

Dear Professionals, I would like to know the Book/journals acquisition procedure followed at corporate libraries? 1. Is purchasing of library books/journals done through direct procurement or is it routed through some other process? 2. Is any library using SAP for acquisition of library documents? 3. How many days it takes to receive a book in the library? 4. Does anyone procure articles/standards online (ones which are available for immediate download)? If yes; how do you make payments toward online purchases of articles/standards? Kindly reply. Thank you all in anticipation. Regards, Tejasvini Ranadive Reliance Industries Ltd., Central Library, Patalganga Manufacturing Division Rasayani 410220 District: Raigad MAHARASHTRA - INDIA Tel: 02192256270 tejasvini.ranadive(a)ril.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ HP "Print this mail only if absolutely necessary.

About the Speaker: Liam Wyatt is the Wikimedia Foundation's Cultural Partnerships Fellow<http://bit.ly/GLAMfellow> (a.k.a GLAM fellow), based in Sydney. He has done his bachelors in Globalisation. He had been given a one year fellowship to focus on Cultural Partnerships within the Wikiverse.

He believes that now the cultural sector has seen that working with Wikimedia can be A Good Thing(tm), that we must have reasonably professional processes in place for managing those relationships.

by Padmanabha Vyasamoorthy 15 Feb '11

15 Feb '11

SURAT: With a view to provide doorstep access to various books and magazines to senior citizens, kids and youngsters, Surat Municipal Corporation ( SMC<http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/topic/search?q=SMC>) has earmarked a fund worth Rs 10 lakh for the 'mobile library' project. * The standing committee has approved the mobile library project under state government's 'Vanche Gujarat' initiative for year 2011-12. Official sources said the mobile library will be equipped with books on various topics, newspapers, magazines etc and it will be stationed outside public gardens and parks. The mobile library project would be a huge success among senior citizens visiting public parks and gardens in the morning and evening hours. They (senior citizens) would have a great opportunity to read books as they cannot visit SMC-run Narmad Library<http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/topic/search?q=Narmad%20Library> located on Ghod Dod Road. "Specialised vehicles will be acquired for the mobile library project. The mobile library would be stationed at public gardens and parks for a couple of days at a stretch so that citizens can get its benefits," a senior civic officer said. Sources added the registration of people intending to read the books will be done at the mobile counter itself by taking their identification proofs and contact numbers. If the members don't find the books of their interest in the mobile library, then they will get it the next day from the central library. * -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
