Student's Seminar-5

INDIAN STATISTICAL INSTITUTE Documentation Research & Training Centre 8th Mile, Mysore Road, RVCE Post Bangalore, 560 059 DRTC Seminar05 (2014 2016) Altmetrics: New ways to Quantify Research Activities ABSTRACT Altmetrics or alternative metrics is an emerging field of new methods for measuring the use and importance of scholarly articles, particularly in sciences. Earlier, for measuring research we relied on bibliometric and scientometric approaches. But the main issues with these traditional metrics is that they need more time to analyse and yield results. Through Altmetrics we can provide real time result which is based on electronic sources of information, for instance, number of downloads and page views from a publisher, repository or online reference manager like Mendeley, or the amount of discussions generated in social media sites, such as, twitter, blogs, etc. The aim of this seminar is to provide a brief overview of Altmetrics including its tools, techniques and the various challenges it possesses. We will also discuss the new opportunities in context of library and information centres which will be followed by some case studies. Speaker : Subhranshu Bhusan Sahoo Date: 13.10.2015. Time: 3.30 P.M. Venue: DRTC Class Room, ISI Bangalore. All are cordially invited.

A One Day National Seminar “Library Consortium in Digital Age: Opportunities and Challenges” organised by Visvesvaraya Technological University, Belagavi on 20th November 2015
by bhimashi handigund 08 Oct '15

08 Oct '15

We are happy to organizing a One Day National Seminar in Bengaluru for the benefit of the Librarians, Principals and Faculty members of Affiliated Colleges to VTU and Other Library Professionals, Students and Research Scholars of various fields. Along with the Seminar in its inaugural Function it is proposed to get the “VTU-Consortium” Inaugurated and Sign the MOU with INFLIBNET shall also be Included. THEME: LIBRARY CONSORTIA IN DIGITAL AGE: OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES ABOUT THE THEME: “Library Consortium in Digital Age: Opportunities and Challenges” Today the Libraries are crowded with huge amount of print and non print information. It has become a challenge to the professionals about efficient dissemination of the information with the traditional framework of Librarianship “Right Information to Right User at Right Time”. Further, procuring the huge peer-received information is also very expensive to an individual institutional library and without exhaustively information supplied to the users will be partial and will not satisfactory. Hence, equipping every Library with exhaustive information at a less cost is need of the day. Here comes the role of Consortia which enable each libraries flooded with huge and exhaustive information. The Consortium Concept will also enable the remote individual libraries with information all the organizing and repackaging in ready to use from effectively through their gateway portals. Hence, the end user will also be individually efficient enough to access the desired information through the consortium portals or remote access facilities extended by the consortia. India stands seventh place in the world in Science and Technology publications contributing only 3.5% of the total international output and citation share is just 1.8% China stands second place contributing 15% of the total international output and its citation share is 7.3%. With this background enables us to understand the need for increasing the research output of India. For this we need to equip our Scientists and Researchers with exhaustive information about the state-of-the-Art growth in their respective subject areas. This can only be possible when all libraries are rich enough to procure all the resources or to form a Consortium to enable the Scientists and Researchers to access the information and produce quality research output in the form of articles, patents and books etc. Hence it is essential to promote the concept of forming Consortia at every regional level for every discipline. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
