Library and Information Science Videos <https://librarianshipstudies.blogspot.com/2017/04/library-and-information-s…> Library and Information Science Videos is an initiative of Librarianship Studies & Information Technology blog to showcase the finest LIS videos for librarians, catalogers, metadata, archives, and knowledge professionals. The videos are sourced from Librarianship Studies & Information Technology YouTube Channel. A featured video will be displayed in this blog post along with a brief summary. It will also be displayed at the bottom of the blog in a large view (recommended). It is important to note that the large view of the featured video is available only in the web version. So if you are viewing on a mobile phone or some mobile device then go to the bottom of the blog post area to locate and visit the option "View web version" to find the featured video. Contents ------------------------------ - Background - Featured Video - Videos in Librarianship Studies & Information Technology YouTube Channel BACKGROUND I always wanted to see beautiful libraries of the world like the Library of Congress of Washington D.C., the British Library of London, and the Bodleian Library of Oxford. I also wanted to view Library and Information Science tutorial videos by top-ranked library and i-schools. There are some topics which cannot be demonstrated effectively through text (as in article form), where video format is preferred. For example, if the subject is like Use of Robots In Libraries, then it would be more interesting to see a video showing robots in action in libraries. Likewise, a biography of a library and information science luminary like Dr. S. R. Ranganathan, Dr. Carla Hayden, Lois Mai Chan, or Charles Ammi Cutter should better be viewed in a video. So an idea came to my mind to create a YouTube Channel on Library and Information Science with top quality videos on the pattern of Khan Academy <http://khan%20academy/>. FEATURED VIDEO Dr. Carla Hayden: President Obama's Nominee For The Librarian Of Congress - [Watch this video on the large screen at the bottom of Librarianship Studies & Information Technology blog - Recommended] - This video is created by Obama White House Archives to introduce Dr. Carla Hayden as President Obama's Nominee For The Librarian Of Congress. See Dr. Carla Hayden in action as she speaks about her career and experience as a librarian, and tour the Library of Congress and Enoch Pratt Free Library with this incredible video. … … … … *Read full article on Librarianship Studies & Information Technology <https://librarianshipstudies.blogspot.com/>: https://librarianshipstudies.blogspot.com/2017/04/library-and-information-s… <https://librarianshipstudies.blogspot.com/2017/04/library-and-information-s…>* Salman Haider Librarian (Cataloging) -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Re: [LIS-Forum] How to justify the librarian post for the institution

---------------------------- Original Message ---------------------------- From: "Prof. N. Laxman Rao." <naglaxman(a)yahoo.com> Date: Fri, March 31, 2017 10:17 pm -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear friends We all know the status and image of librarians in this country. The image and reputation comes with the work and service we provide to users. It also gets enhanced when we publicise, mix with people, lobby and show our skills in making library a unique place in the academic institution. Unfortunately , and in spite of having skills most of us could not build the image which resulted in deterioration of the image. One of thr former DPL in Andhra Pradesh was commenting that the librarians simply give books and take back. do we need such high degree and salary for them. He further commented that his attender can do better job than librarians? It was a disgusting statement. sometime we were worried that the library management goes to ICT people. Due to several reasons and ineffective impression we created, more than 60% of univ librarians posts are vacant in the country. Most of the academic administrators feel there is no need of librarian with such high scale. we may feel bad to accept truth and blame on any one whether senior or junior, but such situations are truthful of the profession. who has to be blamed, ?LIS Educationnon maintenance of quality and lack of good teaching?Almost distribution of degrees by few univs as they want money?Lack updating the technologyLack of practical experienceTreating this profession on par with a BA holder?Lack of commitment and work Consciousness among professionals?No Capacity to work as the knowledge is minimal?Lack of Environment support? MANY MORE???? THERE IS A NEED FOR INTROSPECTION AND RECTIFY OUR LAPSES? i KNOW THE Vijayawada institution selection process , and internally what happend ( I am Â not expert). Candidates who attended the interview could not do interview well. The comment was the present Dy Librarian ( whom they recruited by that time) is many times better than the librarian candidates? Just having qualification does not give the job and status. One has to learn continuously, do hard work accept the new changes, commitment is necessary, and we must be able to impress with service rather than mere presence. What an expert out of six members of the selection committee can do. It was shameful situation to expert as the candidates could not do anything for such higher position and high salary/ Â I KNOW MY FRANK SITUATION MAY CREATE FLUTTERS IN MANY MINDS. THERE ARE PLENTY NUMBER OF PROFESSIONALS, WHO MADE the profession Â a great profession. It has to emulated by one and all.Â We all quote late Ranganathan every where, who brought the recognition to the profession and the subject at international level. He made India as one of the top countries in LIS. many people claim Late Ranganathan as father of library science and quote stories of his association. But in reality most of them used his name Â and made positions and money too. Did any one work for revision of his theories after him? Now we are forced to shelve his concepts on attick. Â Should not we feel shame of this scene. Before we celebrate Librarian's Day, is it not necessary to do something to follow and accept his ideals, thoughts, commitment and work culture? I know few cases where the senior professionals played mischief but dont think every candidate applies is Â competent and let us not blame the senior experts. BEFORE BLAMING ME, PLEASE REVIEW, RETHINK, CHANGE AND STRIVE TO GET PAST GLORY WHICH NEVER COMES WITH DEGREES AND DISTINCTIONS?

However i am not in a position to justify because as per present scenario if a library work can be done by the professionals having GP/AGP 4200/4600/4800/5400/6000/8000 than why to waste 10000 AGP on another fellow this may be the view of policy makers ! I also expect some good answers with proper justifications because IIT Bombay has already created 7600 GP post (Chief library officer) in lieu of 10000 AGP as per my knowledge and many institutes may face the same in near future. What our immediate parents have done same we are getting in return this may be one case i think !

Digital company’s market cap is better than analogue companies.

How to justify the librarian post for the institution
by Rajendra Jena 30 Mar '17

30 Mar '17

Dear Sir/Madam, Can anyone share any document in support of librarian post. One of our sister concern SPA Vijaywada advertised for the post of librarian (PB-4 with AGP 10000/-) and also conducted interview for the said post but finally made this NFS. Now our authority proposing to abolish the post. The student strength is around 600 now and in future it may reach around 1200. SPAs are institution of national importance under MHRD. Please advice me how to justify not to abolish the post. regards, -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
