Ranganathan on Saturday, 12th August 2017 at Advanced Centre for Treatment, Research and Education in Cancer (ACTREC), Kharghar, Navi Mumbai. The one day event starting at 10.00am will have series of lectures by experts on a theme ‘MakerSpace’ and felicitation to superannuated members. MakerSpace is a space preferably created by and in library or managed by library where users assemble to share their knowledge and resources, work on projects, network, and build for learning new concepts to make their career. Collaborative and creative learning space with 3D printers, video screening facility for small groups, lighting, vinyl cutters with a table space, microcomputers, whiteboard wall, computers, and necessary software to support audio, video, and 3D design are the few facilities. The MakerSpace facilities differ from library to library, based on the nature and services of the institute to which the library is associated with. It is going to be a feast on how the ‘space’ in library, whether it is physical or virtual space is utilised in a best and effective way for the technology savvy users. The registration fee for this one day event is · Rs.300/- (Rupees three hundred only) for BOSLA members; · Rs.500/-(Rupees five hundred only) for Non-BOSLA members; and · Rs.250/- (Rupees two hundred and fifty only) for the presently studying BLIS & MLIS students.

Public libraries and GST
by Koteswara Rao Mamidi 06 Jul '17

06 Jul '17

Dear Friends, While the entire country embraces GST from 1st July 2017, the apprehensions expressed by some States about revenue losses cannot be taken lightly. The ‘subsuming’ of library cess along with more than 25 cesses & levies, might be detrimental to the survival of public libraries which are already in trouble. We all know that apart from the RRRLFs matching grant, library cess which is being collected by the States for the maintenance of public libraries is the only source of funding. Today, our public libraries are in a pathetic condition mainly due to shortage of funds because in many cases the library cess that is collected by the local panchayats and municipal bodies is mostly diverted to other works instead of passing on to the State's public library Directorate. The Ministry of Finance’s assurance of collecting additional cess on luxury goods for another five years to compensate the States’ revenue losses is only on paper. Even if the Central Government has agreed in principle to offer full compensation for the revenue losses in the coming five years, its implementation and outcome is yet to be ascertained. While GST may foster economic growth, both Central and State Governments should not ignore civic services like public libraries in their efforts to push economic growth. If the States do not provide alternative source of funding for public libraries, they may altogether disappear into oblivion. In the new GST, public library services are exempted; however, the funding & maintenance of public libraries will definitely be affected in the absence of library cess. I feel that public libraries are in great danger unless some alternative arrangements are put in place by the concerned Ministries. I request all my fellow library professionals and library associations to come together and express our concern and put forward an appeal to the State and Central Governments for a separate budget for the development and maintenance of public libraries.

Dear Friends, I am happy to share a video on 'Goods and Services Tax (GST)'. You may see this video at https://youtu.be/t5QgUEBm2Dk The video is prepared after browsing many websites, documents and e-contents etc. I have tried to cover the points from every angle but some of the points are still not mentioned in the video which I will mention in my next video. Trust, this video will help to understand the basics of GST. There is a slight mistake at 13:30 minutes (instead of 10%, understand 20%). Your suggestions and comments are most welcome to improve the content.

ICFL 2017- Indian Statistical Institute, Nov-15-17
by M.Krishnamurthy 04 Jul '17

04 Jul '17

International Conference on Future of Libraries: from Promises to Practices (ICFL) DRTC, Indian Statistical Institute in association with The College of Communication and Information, Florida State University, Florida USA & Library and Information Science Society for Asia and the Pacific (LISSASPAC) 15-17 November 2017 INDIAN STATISTICAL INSTITUTE Indian Statistical Institute (ISI), a unique institution devoted to the research, teaching and application of statistics, natural sciences and social sciences. Founded by Professor P.C. Mahalanobis in Kolkata on 17th December, 1931, the institute gained the status of an Institution of National Importance by an act of the Indian Parliament in 1959. The Headquarters of ISI is located in the northern fringe of the metropolis of Kolkata. Additionally, there are four centres located in Delhi, Bangalore, Chennai and Tezpur. Research in Statistics and related disciplines is the primary activity of the Institute. Teaching activities are undertaken mainly in Kolkata, Delhi and Bangalore. Offices of the Institute located in several other cities in India are primarily engaged in projects and consultancy in Statistical Quality Control and Operations Research'. Documentation Research and Traning Centre (DRTC) was established in January 1962 as a division of the Indian Statistical Institute. It developed as a result of social forces. Soon after independence, the Government of India created the Indian Standards Institution in 1947. In the same year, its Documentation (Sectional) Committee was formed with Prof.S R Ranganathan as chairman. A proposal was made to Union Ministry of Education for the establishment of a National Documentation Centre. The proposal was referred to a committee of professors which included Prof. S R Ranganathan. In 1949, the files were taken over by Dr. Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar. There was a keenly felt need for document services to support the work done in the national laboratories that were just being established. In 1950, Dr. K S Krishnan, the then Director of the National Physics Laboratory and Prof. S R Ranganathan were authorised to negotiate with UNESCO for aid in setting up a National Documentation Centre. The result was the establishment of Indian National Scientific Documentation Centre (INSDOC) in September 1951. By about 1955, some industries had been established. The research activities in the national laboratories had also begun to accelerate to a higher pitch. Specialist Libraries to support research activities were being established in some of these institutions. Thus the time appeared to be ripe for the formation of a special library association to support specialist library activity and documentation. Thus was born IASLIC. Prof. P C Mahalanobis, member of the Planning Commission and then Director of Indian Statistical Institute, had all along been engaged in perspective planning. He sensed the dependence of productivity of industries and of research in the country on prompt and pinpointed documentation services. As early as 1956, he requested Prof. Ranganathan, who was then in Zurich to come back to India and to establish a training school. Prof S R Ranganathan was imparting training in librarianship at Malleshwaram, later under the goodwill and support of Prof P C Mahalanobis, it was merged with Indian Statistical Institute. Thus, born DRTC at the Bangalore centre of Indian Statistical Institute. By leap and bounds, DRTC grown into a centre of higher learning, today it stands as advocacy centre for research and development of libraries. ABOUT THE CONFERENCE Information pervades our lives. Whether executing simple acts or making complex decisions, we depend on information to perform effectively. For better or worse, libraries are part of the fabric of society. They cannot survive and thrive as alien bodies or, to use the language of systems theory, as closed systems with impermeable boundaries. The mission and vision of academic libraries is to support research, education, and scholarship. Historically, libraries have supported this mission by organizing and providing access to information, special collections, and creating physical spaces for collaboration and scholarship. While the broad mission of academic libraries is largely unchanged, transformations in technology, media, and culture are driving fundamental changes in the production and consumption of information and the practice of scholarship. As a result, academic libraries are rethinking their strategies and services to meet the challenges of the digital world and the demands of the born digital generation. Libraries, in particular, are confronting these challenges as the nature of scientific practice is being dramatically transformed by information technologies. Promises and Challenges for Libraries The promises include the following: the potential for new scientific discoveries that are possible only through large-scale, computational analyses; a new era of transparency and replicability in scientific methods and results; and the potential for widespread democratization of scientific research, given the increasing ubiquity of open access data sources and protocols. However, hidden in these examples are several challenges for universities and their libraries. Libraries are increasingly being asked to play a leadership role in helping universities capture and organize their intellectual assets, such as faculty publications, student dissertations, project reports, and scientific data sets. To understand how libraries will change by the mid-21st century, people need to understand what function they currently serve. At their core, libraries in the information age provide a public means of accessing knowledge. The hallmark of future libraries, meanwhile, will be hyper-connectivity. They'll reflect our increasing reliance on social media, streaming content, and open-source data. The objective of the conference is to create a platform for exchange ideas of the library community related to current trends. Therefore, this conference will keep you updated and make it stimulating and enlightening experience. Call for Papers: General areas of interests include, but are not limited to, the following topics: Knowledge Management/ Information Management Metadata to Data Semantic Web and linked data Open Access and Open Science Ontology and Knowledge Organization Application of Digital Libraries Sub themes: Digitization of Science and its impact on libraries Digital Preservation/ Access Management Big data and Library Web bases library Services Application of Social Media ( Research Gate, ORI ID etc) Submission Guidelines Full papers (12 pages), must be written in English and submitted in MS word format. All Submission will be reviewed on the basis of relevance, originality, importance and clarity in a peer single blind review process. Original Papers on the theme and sub-themes are invited.
