Many librarians offer press clipping services. Do they know the value of their services? Can the put a price tag? (and recover the costs involved?). Following message gives an idea how much BMC (Bombay Municipal Corporation) is spending on acquiring information through press clippings. Vyasamoorthy ================= 16. bmc does read newspaper articles Posted by: "karmayog.org" info(a)karmayog.org Date: Thu Sep 20, 2007 10:06 pm ((PDT)) It seems that BMC gives a yearly contract of Rs. 1.5 crores to read and cut and file articles from newspapers. One would like to know how the files are circulated internally. ================= -- Dr P Vyasamoorthy, Society for Serving Seniors 30, Gruhalakshmi Colony, Secunderabad 500015 Phone 27846631 / 94908 04278 http://societyforservingseniors.satyamcsr.org -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
