As a philosophical tool it has produced unprecedented results by its peculiar analysis of many of the canonical texts. Jacques Derrida has shown the way of revealing the limits of our own understanding and of realizing the role of margins in the life-world. In any society the hegemony of ideas exists as the reigning force and the cerebral activities inevitably involve the play of hegemonic ideas.

Subject: PIL on Neglect of Library and Appointment of Library Staff all over India
by Ashok Asundi 21 Jul '21

21 Jul '21

To: Indian Library Association Considering the Historicity of Librariesand library services to the community, the ILA should file a PIL in Supreme Courtand here is a small write on the reason for such an act. As aLife Member of ILA for more than 40 years in standing and as President ofKarnataka State Library Association, I am making this proposal to ILA. As all of us know that the Library has been becoming the most neglectedinstitution under the policies of the Government both at the Central and Statelevel. It is well known that several commissions on education and others have emphasized therole of library and about 21 states of India have public library legislationand many of these Library acts have mandated to provide public library servicesto the citizens and some of them are also levying Library Cess. Most theUniversities in the country are without bare minimum qualified library staff and some of them are being managed by Only oneprofessionals wherein their earlier strength was anywhere between 20-60. IITsand Institutions of national importance, many public libraries in the countryare without staff. In the country there are nearly 200+Universities offering LIS education from Certificate to Doctorate levels,Thousands of youngsters are passing out of these valued Institutions which have a history of nearly 75 years instanding. They also are working without adequate teaching faculty and some ofthem on the threshold of closing. In comparison in the west and also in manydeveloping nations from Africa and South East Asia except India, Library andlibrary profession is regarded as one of the essential services. Despite application of ICT in Libraryoperations and services many libraries in the west are appoint specialists indifferent areas of application of ICT in libraries to make library servicesmore effective and fruitful. Considering such and all other aspects thereis a very strong case to file a Public Interest Litigation in the Supreme Court to enlighten thegovernments both Central and State to take immediate action on improving thelibrary situations all over the country as the libraries since ages are considered asinstitutions to cater to the public needs of education, learning, teaching,research and for the leisure time activity. IndianLibrary Association being a national professionalbody should consult the concerned in this regard and go for filing a PIL and also seek the Parliament to bringa WHITE PAPER on all aspects of library situationsand condition. There is a concrete example of United Kingdom which brought outa White Paper in the 1960s to reorganize entire library scenario in the country Yours Prof. A.Y.AsundiFormer Professor and Chairman of LISCell : 9980815468

Rajashekar 16th Memorial Lecture, 2021 on: Revisiting Copyright and the Republic of Science: Reframing Copyright Theories From Property to Public Good. by Professor Shalini Urs Founder Chairperson and Trustee MYRA School of Business, Mysore - 571130 & Former Founder Director and Professor International School of Information Management University of Mysore Mysore - 570006, India. The talk will be chaired by Ms Bindu Sharma, Founder & CEO, Origiin IP Solutions LLP (https://www.origiin.com/) Date & Time: Friday, 16th July 2021 @ 3.00 p.m. Microsoft Live Event Link: https://tinyurl.com/4n3wuc52 Abstract of the talk: This talk will briefly lay the foundations for revisiting the theoretical justifications for copyright by discussing the four theoretical frameworks: utilitarian theory, the labor-desert theory, the personality theory, and the social planning theory. While the utilitarian theory and the social planning theory build their theoretical explanations on the notion of maximization of social welfare through diverging on how they each define "welfare." The labor-desert theory and the personality theory form the Rights-based theories and justify copyright as a "natural right" given to the creator of copyright material. The norms of "the Republic of Science" are famously articulated by Robert Merton and compactly summarized by the mnemonic "CUDOS": Communalism, Universalism, Disinterestedness, Originality, and Skepticism. These CUDOS norms not only dovetail with Popper's ideal of Open Society but are intrinsic to the scientific enterprise. Scientific or scholarly information exhibits the two cardinal characteristics of Public Good*non-excludable and non-rivalrous. From an economic point of view, scientific products are essentially public goods, and from a sociological point of view, scientific research is a product of social collaboration, and its ownership belongs to the community. Asserting that production of scientific knowledge does not belong to the "natural right" category, and the public good is social welfare, I argue that it is time to revisit the copyright issue and turn it on its head. We need to reframe the copyright theories in the context of CUDOS norms and the principle that knowledge is a non-excludable and non-rivalrous commodity. About Dr Shalini Urs Dr Shalini R Urs is an internationally recognized academic who began her career in academia 44 years back, joining the University of Mysore as a lecturer in the Department of Library and Information Science in 1976.

Dr. T.B. Rajashekar 16th Memorial Webinar-based Online Lecture, 2021 by Professor Shalini Urs
by Francis Jayakanth 07 Jul '21

07 Jul '21

Dear All, Greetings from the NCSI-Net Foundation. We hope you are well, staying safe and healthy. NCSI-Net Foundation cordially invites you and your colleagues to Dr T.B. Rajashekar 16th Memorial Lecture, 2021 on: Revisiting Copyright and the Republic of Science: Reframing Copyright Theories From Property to Public Good. by Professor Shalini Urs Founder Chairperson and Trustee MYRA School of Business, Mysore - 571130 & Former Founder Director and Professor International School of Information Management University of Mysore Mysore - 570006, India. Date & Time: Friday, 16th July 2021 at 3.00 p.m. An online webinar link will be sent in a subsequent announcement. Abstract This talk will briefly lay the foundations for revisiting the theoretical justifications for copyright by discussing the four theoretical frameworks: utilitarian theory, the labor-desert theory, the personality theory, and the social planning theory. While the utilitarian theory and the social planning theory build their theoretical explanations on the notion of maximization of social welfare through diverging on how they each define "welfare." The labor-desert theory and the personality theory form the Rights-based theories and justify copyright as a "natural right" given to the creator of copyright material. The norms of "the Republic of Science" are famously articulated by Robert Merton and compactly summarized by the mnemonic "CUDOS": Communalism, Universalism, Disinterestedness, Originality, and Skepticism. These CUDOS norms not only dovetail with Popper's ideal of Open Society but are intrinsic to the scientific enterprise. Scientific or scholarly information exhibits the two cardinal characteristics of Public Good*non-excludable and non-rivalrous. From an economic point of view, scientific products are essentially public goods, and from a sociological point of view, scientific research is a product of social collaboration, and its ownership belongs to the community. Asserting that production of scientific knowledge does not belong to the "natural right" category, and the public good is social welfare, I argue that it is time to revisit the copyright issue and turn it on its head. We need to reframe the copyright theories in the context of CUDOS norms and the principle that knowledge is a non-excludable and non-rivalrous commodity. About the speaker: Dr Shalini R Urs is an internationally recognized academic who began her career in academia 44 years back, joining the University of Mysore as a lecturer in the Department of Library and Information Science in 1976. She is an institution builder whose brainchild is the MYRA School of Business (www.myra.ac.in<http://www.myra.ac.in/>), which she founded in 2012. She also founded the International School of Information Management (www.isim.ac.in<http://www.isim.ac.in/>) -- the first Information School in India, as an autonomous constituent unit of the University of Mysore in 2005. She is currently involved with Gooru India Foundation as a Board member (https://gooru.org/about/team) and is actively involved in the implementation of the Gooru Learning Platform in India and building the Indian Learning Collective. She has served as a UNESCO expert on several occasions and was commissioned to conduct many studies in the last twenty years. Her contributions have won her several awards. She was a Fulbright scholar and a visiting professor at the Department of Computer Science, Virginia Tech, the USA during 2000 - 2001; an adjunct faculty at the International Institute of Information Technology, Bangalore (IIITB) during 2005-2007; and a visiting professor at the Documentation Research and Training Centre, Indian Statistical Institute, Bangalore during 1998 and 1999. Passionate and dedicated to digital scholarship, she has lead many digital initiatives in India. She pioneered the Electronic Theses and Dissertations Movement in India in 2000 and won the Microsoft Grant for implementing UNICODE for Indian Languages in 2003. Adobe Leadership award in 2004. She conceptualized and developed the Vidyanidhi Digital Library and eScholarship portal (www.vidyanidhi.org.in)<file://Users/apple/Downloads/(www.vidyanidhi.org.in)> in 2000 with funding from the Government of India, which became a national initiative with a further grant from the Ford Foundation. She built an online digital library way back in 2000, much before the digital era captured the imagination in India. With decades of experience in academia and educational entrepreneurship, she initiated many innovative programmes, founded the International School of Information Management in 2005 and the MYRA School of Business in 2012. Currently, she is focused on academic research, writing and her consulting and advisory role in various organizations. We look forward to seeing you at the event.

Query regarding stock verification (Mr. Manoj Kumar)
by Dhanwantari Prakash Tripathi 19 Jun '21

19 Jun '21

Dear Mr. Manoj, If you are using koha and also the books are barcoded then your work will become quite easy to complete stock verification. I will suggest you to follow the below process to find the exact records missing and complete the verification. First - Take any laptop and attach the barcode reader with it. Second - Ask your staff on a rotation basis to scan the barcodes in excel sheets i.e. *stock verification.* Third - Once the scanning of all books is completed, you will have the list of all physical books available with you. Fourth - Now, you have to check the items issued in koha. Pull the reports of all issued books and also the list of other books with status (damaged, write off etc.) and add these accession numbers to your* stock verification excel list. * Fifth - Now you will have a complete list of verified books. *Here your actual job starts to find the missing books. * 1. First, you pull the complete accession numbers list from koha in the excel file. Ensure, your accession numbers are in *COLUMN A* 2. Secondly, copy the accession numbers from your stock verification excel sheet and paste it in the first excel sheet (pulled from koha) in *COLUMN C* to match the records and find the missing. 3. Now, you have to add the formula in the *COLUMN B. * *= vlookup(A1,C:C,1,FALSE)* 4. It will match column A to column C and show the result in *COLUMN **B*. Here, the records which are not found will show #NA. 5. Just, filter it and this is your missing list. 6. Ask the staff to search it again. If found good else* "YOUR STOCK VERIFICATION LIST is WITH YOU"* Hope it helps you to complete stock verification. If you wish, you can write me at dptripathi79(a)gmail.com (I don't suggest you upload the verified list in koha for stock verification unless / until you are comfortable with the Koha database). Thanks DP Tripathi Dear Professionals, Myself Manoj Kumar , a college Librarian from Kerala Our library has more than 33000 books, barcoded and our LMS is Koha . Which is the best method to do stock Verification considering all aspects like new technology, keeping social distancing, ease of doing with less physical labour comparingly, and need of additional hardware or software etc.. I am seeking guidance from those who successfully done Stock Verification in their libraries or planning to do so in the near future.

Fwd: an appeal to honourable Prime Minister of India for Relocation of the GOI Libraries to the New Secretariat Complex, Central Vista
by Sunita Barve 12 Jun '21

12 Jun '21

Dear all Please poll your opinion at the URL: http://bit.ly/lisprofessional (use your computer or mobile) which is an appeal to the Prime Minister of India regarding the relocation of books/records and artefacts from various libraries and museums to Central Vista. Please also circulate to every known person to you, need not be a librarian. Here is the text of an appeal for your reference. *__________________________________________________* *An Appeal to the Honourable Prime Minister of India* *Sub: Relocation of the GOI Libraries to the New Secretariat Complex, Central Vista * Sir, We understand that the Government of India is planning to construct a new secretariat complex to house the various ministries that are presently scattered in different buildings like Krishi Bhawan, Udyog Bhawan, Nirman Bhawan, Shastri Bhavan etc. All these building as well as the National Archives Annexe, IGNCA and National Museum host libraries and cultural artefacts We, the members of the Library and Information Service (LIS) profession and Indian Heritage lovers, are immensely concerned about the relocation, reorganisation and conservation/preservation of the cultural heritage and books housed in libraries of these buildings. For instance, the Central Secretariat Library (CSL) in Shastri Bhawan is the second largest government library with more than one million volumes. The National Archives (Annexe) has the largest collection of old government records. IGNCA has more than 200,000 manuscripts collected under the National Mission for Manuscripts initiated by the earlier NDA government. We earnestly appeal to you to take appropriate measures for proper relocation and upkeep of our precious heritage material. This will need suitable and accessible space for reorganising these cultural heritage for posterity. There will be a need for adoption of international standards for conservation/preservation of these materials; creation of appropriate climate controlled space for the artefacts and rare books. It is essential to have trained manpower to maintain and to provide service to the prospective users. We suggest that a task force may be constituted by the government comprising academicians, library professionals, archivists, museum curators/conservationists and Indian heritage lovers for meticulous planning and execution as we have to reckon with a task of enormous magnitude. We all hope that necessary steps will be taken by the Government of India so that we do not lose even a minuscule of our rich heritage. Yours Sincerely, Library Science Professionals & Indian heritage lovers -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Bargain Book Hut
by Padmanabha Vyasamoorthy 11 Jun '21

11 Jun '21

Bargain Book Hut - famous in Mumbai, Surat, Ahmedabad, Goa, Chandigarh Pune Bengaluru - have now started an online store at bargainbookhutonline.com bringing books at a great bargain to everyone. You might even get a 90% discount on certain titles, while 70% to 80% is common. But most of the offers have a short validity period. In fact there is a "deal of the day" section where book offers expire at the end of the day. Their efforts to promote book reading is laudable.

DSpace 7.0 to be released on August, 2021!
by Goutham 10 Jun '21

10 Jun '21

DSpace 7.0 will be released on/by Monday, August 2, 2021! This release finally brings together two user interfaces and their communities, who had previously been working in parallel. The ambition is to bring together the best of both JSPUI and XMLUI worlds, meaning that all features are re-imagined, and re-implemented on a single new user interface technology, Angular. This new UI is backed by a brand new REST API, which opens all data & features to the web, allowing DSpace to integrate or interact with external systems/services like never before. The switch to Angular also allows for more rapid innovation. Angular has the potential to attract developers with prior expertise, given the popularity and global traction of Angular across industries. What will be included in DSpace 7.0? The efforts contributed to DSpace 7 are the largest endeavour ever undertaken by the DSpace community. The DSpace 7.0 release will concentrate on the following major features: A new User Interface based on Angular (to replace XMLUI and JSPUI). This work is going on in the "main" branch of https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular An exhaustive list of all major features already in 7.0 can be found in the 7.0 Release Notes (for each Beta). A refactored/enhanced REST API (using modern REST best practices). This work is going on in the "main" branch of https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace Additionally, a new REST Contract (describing all API interactions) is being written at https://github.com/DSpace/RestContract Redesigned submissions and workflows featuring a one page submission process with a drag-and-drop interface and newly redesigned MyDSpace. A new Configurable Entities object model, which allows for the creation of new "typed" Items, and storing relationships between Items. This feature will allow for tighter integration with external identifier systems (e.g. ORCID), current research information systems (CRIS), journal publishing systems, etc. This work was completed by the DSpace 7 Entities Working Group. The full release announcement, overview, and basic training can be found in the OR2021 talks "DSpace 7.0 : Coming to a DSpace near You! (slides <https://tinyurl.com/or2021-dspace7> | video <https://t.co/UiBfOgp2lG?amp=1>) "Getting Started with DSpace 7.0: Basic Training" (slides <https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1Tz1mrInNXWiiw5jVJjAqkKXBf5NQXbB_6u_…> | video <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZXhplxdjyQ>) Goutham N.

The Mission Group of Help LIS Mission met in several meetings and has developed a portal to help the Covid-19 affected LIS Professionals and the families of the deceased professionals due to covid-19. You may please visit the Portal in the following Link: https://www.helplis-mission.org/ The committee also decided to hold a joint Webinar of all Associations to discuss the modus operandi of the mission on Sunday, 6th June 2021 at 11:00 am.

Tribute to Late M N Seetharaman
by D.V. Patwardhan 27 May '21

27 May '21

Please publish following text in LIS-Forum---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I felt sorry to read the demise of Shri M.N.Seettharaman. I worked under him at NAL Library during 1975-76 and also came in to contact with on several occasions - during ILA conference at IIT, Madras, his lecture at KALA, etc. Initially he was working in "Information & Coordination" dept of NAL. When the position of Librarian at NAL fell vacant in early 1970s, he volunteered to undergo training at INSDOC, New Delhi, and became Office-In-Charge (ICA-NAL). He was also lucky to get training in Library automation at Luxemberg. Library profession is greatly benifitted by his entry. He was a dynamic and knowledge oriented personality. With his skills in collection development, resource sharing and interaction with fellow librarians NAL became centre of professional activities. After his retirement from NAL I learnt that he became consultant to Govt. of Afghanistan for a short period and then joined IIT, Madras as Librarian. ILA annual conference was organised at IIT, Madras in 1991, during his tenure which I attended.It was a well organised event. I am greatly influenced and befitted by his dynamic personality. I owe to him for many achievements done in Library & Inf.Sc profession. May his soul attain Moksha. D.Vasudeva PatwardhanRtd.Sr.Librarian

Sri M N Seetharaman : The Legend
by Poornima Narayana 26 May '21

26 May '21

The shocking demise of Sri. M N Seetharaman, popular as MNS, has left the LIS community devoid of a dynamic n great visionary.. MNS , a personality with many accomplishments n credits to the L&IS profession built an Art of the Center Information Center @ NAL of International repute starting with 3 almirahs of documents to the 2nd biggest n exhaustive Library in the country, perhaps next only to IISc... A great visionary, he implemented IT applications in day to day service functions way back in 70s..ESA Online retrieval databases , Italy; DIALOG databases, USA, etc.. He initiated SDI based profile construction services, a highly popular one with the NAL scientists...Thanks to his rapport and camaraderie with the Management Council at NAL, he could achieve to take it to great heights @ the center... He was a voracious reader n kept himself updated in all spheres of knowledge...He was a spontaneous extempore person on any given topic at any time.. Besides his professional reputation, on the personal front he was a very lively n joyful person by nature, very active always on his toes..Seldom he used to get angry although he was a hard taskmaster.. A very pious n religious person with proficiency in Sanskrit ( he was editing articles in a Sanskrit journal), he kept himself engaged till the last day .. One can write an encyclopedia depicting all his achievements n accomplishments..Such was the personality n LEGEND Sir MNS was... I being a beneficiary of his guidance, inspiration, motivation n above all his greatness being a human offer my NAMANA n PRANAM to him... May your Aatman attain shanthi n Sadagati.. Om Shanthi 🙏🙏 Dr. Poornima Narayana , Fulbright Scholar Ex Head, Information Center (ICAST) CSIR NAL Bangalore -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Informatics can provide necessary new digital tools, technologies, and advanced interactive information retrieval techniques to conserve heritage assets and document them and the knowledge embedded in them for dissemination in society.

Informatics Studies proposes to bring out a special volume on Cultural Heritage Information System (CHIS) in October 2021. The volume will give stress on various aspects of cultural heritage information such as digitization tools and technologies, policy issues, standards and guidelines, metadata and indexing, access and management, issues and challenges, usability and sustainability, architectural designs, semantic and ontological frameworks and the best practices and case studies pertaining to CHIS. The journal Informatics Studies is in its eighth year of publication and select issues are accessible at: informaticsstudies.org. We invite papers for publication in the special volume on the Cultural Heritage Information System (CHIS) first issue (8 (4) October - December 2021).

Sad demise of M N Seetharaman, Ex Head, ICAST, NAL
by Ishwar Goudar 24 May '21

24 May '21

Dear Professionals, I am very sorry to inform you all that Mr. M. N. Seetharaman (MNS), Ex. Head, Information Centre, NAL, Bangalore around 1.00 pm yesterday, 22nd May due to Covid 19. He was 94. He was admitted to Sakra Hospital, Marathhalli Ring Road 15 days back. He was very active and bold being in the hospital too. Infact he spoke to me 6 days back from hospital and kept on sending messages. In between his covid test was negative. But again got infected including secondary infection along with low BP. MNS worked with Both Dr Neelakantan foudar Director, NAL and Dr. Valluri very closely. He played very imporyamt role in setting up of 4'X4' wind tunnel most important milestone of NAL. He took information centre to the highest level and served as its Head, since the setting up Library in 1960s till 1987. He had set up NICDROM at NAL, under NISSAT. MNS was dreamer and was person who used to put staircase to sky. Once Dr. Valluri told openly and I quote "If I were to allow MNS he would have made NAL as subsidiary of ICAST". Among many firsts to his credit he experimented in collaboration with TIFR and introduced satellite based Online Information service through European Space Agency at NAL in 1980s itself. He built exhaustive collection of Technical Reports. Most of thec ISRO, DRDO, IISc, IIT and other Aerosoace related institutes were depending upon ICAST sources and services. Leave alone LIS, he would talk hours together on any topic under the sun and even beyond. He recruited and trained many colleagues at ICAST. After retirement from NAL, he served as Special Officer at Library of IIT, Chennai. He brought ocean changes there to such an extent that IIT Senate gave him a standing ovation. He hosted 39th ILA Conference at IIT. He boosted image of Librarianship at IIT. Infact I worked under his guidance and supervision at IIT. He only recommenced my name to Prof. Narasimha, then Director, NAL who offered me the post of Head, ICAST. Then onwards he guided me to provide quality and state-of-the-art information services. Till the last hour of getting admitted to hospital he was using Internet profusely and inform us about new developments. I lost a friend, philosopher, guide and above all a great human being. Om Shanthi 💐💐🙏💐💐 -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

With deep regret I note the demise of Mr MNS of Ex ICAST and IITM with whom I had very intimate association for several years through different forums regarding online databases, tech literature and building collections.

Sad demise Veteran Library Scientist Sri M.N. Seetharaman
by Ashok Asundi 23 May '21

23 May '21

To All LIS Professionals, We feel highly painful to hear the sad demise of Sri M.N. Seetharaman, former Head NAL, Bangalore. One of the pioneering library and information scientist of our country at the formative years of the development of library and information systems in our country. I had earliest privilege of visiting the NAL Library in late 1965 as student of library science and on study tour since then I have been in contact with Mr. Seetharaman who was very courteous to and would welcome all young professionals with his fair guidance and help. After I moved to Bangalore my contact with him become closure and I would often visit NAL Library for help and guidance. Mr. Seetharaman's all achievements have been narrated by Dr. IRN Goudar in another post on this forum. But one incident I remember always is the Online Information Retrieval Service he had organised( as a Pilot Project) in 1984 as one of the participant. It was an uphill task and the most notable achievement of Mr. Seetharaman apart from his organisation and professional skills. The NAL got connected to Frescati, Rome via European Space Agency and that to at a time when the Telecommunication technology was in it infancy in India then. Myself and with my IIMB Colleagure Smt. Shailaja participated actively in the project and we could also search several databases online. It was one of the most fascinating experience to reminisce. Mr. Seetharaman was Life Member of KALA and would participate in its activities very enthusiastically and also would extend his cooperation in its professional pursuits. Even at the older age he was very active and would offer his valuable consultancies to the need. Very noble, soft spoken and above all very friendly with all. I have personally known his many achievements communicated through the NAL Newsletter to enlighten the professionals. On behalf of Governing Council, on behalf all members of KALA and on my personal behalf condole the passing away of Mr. M.N.Seetharaman, pray Al Mighty May his Soul Rest in Peace. Prof. A.Y.AsundiPresident, Karnataka State Library Association, On behalf of GC and All Members and LIS Fraternity.

Sad Demise of Mr. S.Thammaiah,
by Ashok Asundi 16 May '21

16 May '21

To All LIS Professionals, It is very sad to know that Mr. S.Thammaiah, former Director, Dept. of Public Libraries, Karnataka expired on Thursday, 13th May 2021 at his home in Nandini Layout. Though a very active professionals but in recent years he almost had lost contact with his fraternity. Mr. Thammaiah completed his B.Lib.Sc. from Karnatak University, Dharwad, in 1966. He was one of the earliest to serve the Department, as the Public Libraries Act came in being in 1966. He was one among the few from the Department who had a thorough knowledge of the Karnataka State Public Libraries Act, 1965. Mr. Thammaiah served the department in various capacities, from Technical Assistant to Director of the Department, and had also served as Chief Librarian (Now Dy Director) in Mangalore, Gulbarga and Bangalore Jayanagar City Central Library. His unique achievement in the Department was to undertake a computerised Stock Verification of 20 Lakh books the entire collection under the City Central Library Jayanagar and its Branches, then using the dBASE-IV DBMS progrmming. On behalf of Karnataka State Library Association, and on behalf of its members I offer my heartfelt condolences at the sad demise of Mr. Thammaiah. and to his bereaved family to bear the loss. Pray All mighty His Soul Rest in Peace. Prof. A.Y.AsundiPresident,Karnataka State Library Association.

Dear Friends, I am deeply saddened to hear the passing away of Mr. Dandapani, the former Librarian of the British Library, Bangalore. He was a dynamic, enterprising, and indeed a very popular librarian in Bangalore during his tenure as a Librarian. He had made the British Library almost like a "Talk of the Town". When I was working with the British Council Library, Mumbai in the 1980s, I used to meet him frequently and could notice his leadership qualities and remember his ever smiling face and caring attitude. With his demise, the LIS profession has lost one of the admired librarians. I pray God to give his family members enough strength and courage to bear this loss. May the noble soul rest in peace. Om Shanti.

MILAN invited talk 'How to get it published in reputed publications' - Summary
by Sunil M.V 04 May '21

04 May '21

Dear Professionals, Greetings from MILAN Mysore and trust this email finds you well. Mysore University Information and Library Science Alumni Network (MILAN - http://www.milan-mysore.org/ ) organized an invited talk (Virtual Mode) on "How to get it published in reputed publications" by MILANer Dr. Manju Naika, Chief Library Officer, Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT Bombay) on Saturday, May 1, 2021. *Sharing the summary of the talk for your kind information. * Dr. Manju Naika began his presentation with the role of Librarians in helping users and discussed India's current global position in terms of research publications. The speaker emphasised the need to assist users by offering training programs in best publishing practices, such as author seminars, centralized language editing, and familiarising new generations of users with current research resources and global research practices. Dr. Naika opined that it is the librarian's responsibility to create awareness about how to avoid plagiarism and publishing in predatory journals amongst their users. Sharing his experience, the speaker said the next emerging field in scholarly communication is scholarly content in multimedia format like video journals, video articles etc. Dr. Manju Naika emphasized the need to establish contact with users which is critical to librarians' success in the modern era. Data visualization, Data analytics services are in demand, and librarian's should use the opportunity to provide such assistance. The speaker opined that libraries are notorious for having diminishing budgets, but now, due to the real estate boom, there is a demand for library space from others, so unless librarians take the required measures, retaining library space would be the next obstacle. To contend with, Dr. Manju suggested that librarians should work proactively to increase library resource utilisation and user footfalls. After the presentation, a lively discussion took place with the participants, and the speaker answered all the questions raised by the users with suitable examples. Dr. Sunil MV, Executive Committee (EC) Member, MILAN, welcomed the gathering and introduced the speaker. Dr. Shalini R. Urs, President, MILAN, shared perspectives on the topic. Dr. Meera, B.M., Secretary, MILAN, presented the vote of thanks. The EC Members and MILANers were present. Regards, Dr. Sunil M.V.

by Centre for Informatics Research and Development 02 May '21

02 May '21

Readers: Informatics Studies has just published its latest issue at http://52.205.22.215/index.php/informatics. The current crisis around the Corona virus revealed the importance of Open Access and Open Science - unfettered access to scientific and scholarly information, for scientists, researchers, academicians, journalists and the public alike - for effectively dealing with such calamities. It is the efforts of Sander Dekker during the last decade to implement Open Access by legislation and involvement of European Union; that made it easy for the scientific community to place their research results on Covid-19 under Open Access to arrest the spread of the pandemic. Considering the importance of the contributions of Dekker in the efforts of humanity to sustain life on this planet; the present issue of Informatics Studies is devoted for collecting together historical documents reflecting his work, with two reviews of his career and contributions. We invite you to visit our web site, review the Table of Contents, and then to review articles and items of interest. Thanks for the continuing interest in our work, Dr. Raman Nair R Centre for Informatics Research and Development.

Fire damages historic South African library <https://nature.us17.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2c6057c528fdc6f73fa196d9d…> Forest fires raging in South Africa’s Table Mountain National Park have reached the University of Cape Town and gutted the reading room of its main library <https://nature.us17.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2c6057c528fdc6f73fa196d9d…>, which houses irreplaceable documents and records from the country’s past. “We lose that texture of everyday life and struggles with a catastrophe like this,” says historian Sarah Emily Duff. The university’s botany building was also seriously damaged. Researchers have put out a call for anyone with photos or scans <https://nature.us17.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2c6057c528fdc6f73fa196d9d…> of the library’s collections to come forward to help recover some of the lost records. The “damage is total” says Timm Hoffman, a historical ecologist.

Perception survey on Sci-Hub
by Lambodara Parabhoi 20 Apr '21

20 Apr '21

Dear Sir/Madam, The recent court case against sci-hub and Libgen by Elsevier, Wiley, and ACS (American Chemical Society) in India has triggered much academic discussion on the academic freedom and ethics on accessing scholarly resources. The Sci-Hub is a service that allows researchers to access all the scholarly papers which are behind a paywall. Alexandra Elbakyan, a young computer programmer from Kazakhstan, founded Sci-Hub to fill the gap in accessibility for quality journal articles. From its genesis, the sci-hub faces many challenges from the major publishers as the site makes a free database of all the articles which are behind a paywall that costs a lot to the publisher who generates this content. There are already court cases in the USA and many other countries. Coming to India, many Indian researchers who don't have access to scholarly content are quite dependent on the sci-hub for their research needs, the 2017 usage data of sci-hub shows, 8.7% of the request came from India which is 13 million downloads of research papers. On one side there is an ethics issue and on another side, there is an increase in the price of scholarly resources which is hindering the people who don't have access but want to contribute to scholarly research. The researcher and scholar are divided on the sci-hub issues, where those who believe that knowledge should be free to all and those affirm that there is a price for everything including knowledge. In view of this, the present survey is being conducted to know the perception of the teaching faculty/ researchers/ librarian/ scientists towards Sci-Hub vis-a-vis commodification of scholarly communications. The survey will take *five minutes to complete.* The information provided by you in the survey will be used for academic purposes only and kept confidential. Link of the survey : https://iima.au1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_bC5tdBtJZxgVTKK Thank you in advance for your honest feedback. Warm regards Raj Kishor Kampa, PhD Mallikarjun Dora Lambodara Parabhoi Thanks & regards Lambodara Parabhoi UGC NET, MLISC Professional Assistant Indian Institute of Advanced Study Rashtrapati Nivas, Shimla-171005 Himachal Pradesh Ext-226 Rsearchgate: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Lambodara_Parabhoi Google Scholar: https://scholar.google.co.in/citations?user=EvqTx88AAAAJ&hl=en ORCID:orcid.org/0000-0003-0615-8899 -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Dear Sir/Madam and fellow professionals I am incredibly sorry to hear that Prof.S. Parthasarathy, former Director, INSDOC, is no more.

Prof. S. Parthasarathy is more
by Francis Jayakanth 15 Apr '21

15 Apr '21

From: K.S. Raghavan ksragav(a)hotmail.com The members of the Boards of Trustees of the Sarada Ranganathan Endowment for Library Science and the Ranganathan Centre for Information Studies (Chennai) regret to announce the passing of Prof. S. Parthasarathy, Former Head of INSDOC (CSIR). The end came on 12th April 2021, just a few months before his 104th birthday. A direct disciple and a close associate of Dr. S. R. Ranganathan, Prof. Srirangapattanam Parthasarathy was born on 23rd August 1917. He had his higher education at the University of Madras and University of Chicago. Before joining CSIR, Prof. Parthasarathy worked in the Delhi University Library and also taught as a Lecturer in the Department of Library Science of the University of Delhi. At INSDOC he was responsible for several innovative services and programmes including the INSDOC List and the Union Catalogue of Scientific Serials. He was also closely associated with the training programme of INSDOC leading to Associateship in Documentation. Prof. Parthasarathy was one of the key persons in organizing the FID / CR 3rd International Conference on Classification Research (held at BARC, Mumbai) in January 1975. He was also instrumental in setting up the documentation subcommittee of the Indian Standards Institution (now, Bureau of Indian Standards) and served as a member of the committee for many years. Several library / documentation related standards have been prepared by the committee. Prof. Parthasarathy was also a member of the UGC Review Committee on library science education in India (The report of the committee published under the title ‘Library Science in Indian Universities’ served as a model and framework for LIS education programmes in the country for several years). He was also a member of the UGC Committee on University libraries, which suggested standards for university libraries. Prof. Parthasarathy was active in several committees of the FID. He served as a member of the FID Committee on Developing Countries and also as a FID Council Member (1970-75). He also served as an expert / consultant in Africa to international organizations including UNIDO. He was an expert member in Documentation at the Industrial Development Centre for Arab States, Cairo. Prof. Parthasarathy was also one of the members of the Advisory Committee set up by the Department of Science & Technology (DST) of the Government of India for preparing the blueprint for NISSAT. After his retirement from INSDOC. Prof. Parthasarathy served as an Honorary professor at DRTC, Indian Statistical Institute, Bangalore for some time. He moved to Chennai in 1977 and remained active till the very end. He was an active member of the Madras Library Association and was the guiding force in organizing several programmes under its banner including the All India Library Conference of ILA (1991) held in Chennai in the birth centenary year of Dr. Ranganathan of which he was the Director. He was also one of the key persons in the organization of the 2nd International ISKO Conference held in Chennai in 1992. He played an important role in the creation of the documentary on S. R. Ranganathan (brought out by the Madras Library Association in 1992 as part of the birth centenary celebrations of Dr. Ranganathan). He was one of the founder trustee of the Ranganathan Centre for Information Studies (Founded by Bharat Ratna Sri C. Subramanian in association with Prof. M. S. Swaminathan, Prof. M. Anandakrishnan, Prof. A. Neelameghan and others). Prof. Parthasarathy had also been a long-time trustee of the Sarada Ranganathan Endowment for Library Science and has been instrumental in organizing many of its activities including the ISKO International Conference held in the University of Mysore in 2012 and SRR@125: Revisiting Ranganathan: An International Conference held at the Indian Institute of Technology Madras in 2017. Prof Parthasarathy was actively involved in planning and implementing higher education programmes. He was one of the members of the Board of Management of the MOP Vaishnav College for Women, Chennai and took keen interest in planning the programmes and activities of the College. Even at age 100, he was an avid reader and would regularly visit the American Library, the British Council Library, and the Madras University Library. He was a regular at the conferences of the Indian Library Association and IASLIC. To honour this legend, a festschrift was brought out in 2009 (Library and Information Systems: From Alexandrian Heritage to Social Networking). In his passing the profession has lost a tall leader, a visionary, and a great human being. K. S.

Prof. S. Parthasarthy
by Ashok Asundi 15 Apr '21

15 Apr '21

Dear All Professionals, It is very sad news, to know that Prof.S. Parthasarthy, former Head,INSDOC is no more. Probably that was the last link connecting Dr. SRR with the entire professional chain of veterans who worked closely with the father of library science. I am fortunate of being studied at INSDOC and I had the first meeting with him in Delhi and posed me a very warm welcome. Since then he has had lasting memory about our first meeting and that was his legacy. Even with that age he was agile professionally and actively participated in the meetings which attended. Never used spects, his hearing was not much diminished and one would recall Sir MV whenever we met him. Thank you Prof.K.S.Raghavan, by giving us Prof. Parthasarthy's key achievements and prestigious positions he held in the profession. The profession is getting depleted with the loss of such personalities. Pray Almighty let Prof. SP soul rest in peace. Prof.A.Y.Asundi

Sri S Parthasarathi -- The most loved LIS professional is no more
by Mohan Hr 14 Apr '21

14 Apr '21

The Grand Old Man of Library Sciences by far the best seen in India in the last century Sri S Parthasarathi of Triplicane Chennai, aged 104 years attained his Acharyan Thiruvadi at Hydrabad this morning. Even at a 100++ age he would travel by MTS-Bus and train. He has been a role model to many LIS Professional and IT Professionals like me. He used to keep himself updated with all developments and share with his contacts. He is an excellent motivator and used to encourage people. He has supported and reviewed many library, indexing, special publication initiatives in which I was involved at The Hindu. I miss him very badly. I pray HIS ALMIGHTY to shower HIS blessings on the departed soul to rest in peace. With deep regrets -- HR Mohan -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
