Re: [LIS-Forum] LIBsys querry
by T. Shahab 14 May '08

14 May '08

Dear Majumdar The easiest way for on hand Libsys training is to visit any of the neighburhood libraries where they have implemented this integrated library package and learn sitting along with the staff . Otherwise, you can borrow from some professionals the Libsys User's manual for different modules, sit on on your PC and follow the instructions. Another alternative but a costlier one is to visit the local Libsys vendor and learn with their instructors. But please note that there are other alternatives to Libsys available in the Indian market and they are at least equally good or even better.

TALKING WEBSITE
by Shaheen, Farooque 13 May '08

13 May '08

IT major IBM India Private Limited is now working on a talking website at its India Research Laboratory. This will ensure that even the unlettered can create a website and access information from others for business transactions. Disclosing the details to Business Standard, IBM India Research Laboratory Director Guruduth Banavar said pilots of the project have been completed and were in the final stages. The highlight is that it will be a spoken website. An individual can call up the registry (agency) to create a site for him. There will be a list of services and products available, the price and time frame set for him. The clients will call up the same registry to perform a 'search'. Instead of keying it on a computer, they will spell out the requirements. The registry will throw up choices that are closest to the search criterion. Banavar said several such registries will be created for locale and product-specific talking websites. "This project is scalable and can be used across sectors,'' he said, adding that the booming mobile revolution in India was the basis for this mobile-web initiative. This also transcends language barriers. The idea is to reach out to a large section of the population and this will eventually be part of the IBM business units. http://www.business-standard.com/common/news_article.php?leftnm=8&autono=32… Thanks & Regards Farooque Shaheen Manager- Information Services Keane India Pvt Ltd. +91-80-26678388 Ext 4105 (Tel) ______________________________________________________________________ Disclaimer: This communication, along with any documents, files or attachments, is confidential, intended only for the use of the recipient(s) named above and may contain information that is legally privileged, attorney work product or otherwise exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
