11 Mar '20

Dear professionalsI have seen the request in LIS Forum inviting applications for getting felicitated by the SALIS, Pondicherry. It seems to be an unfair practice to apply and get felicitated. The SALIS should know whom to felicitate and do it accordingly. It is only my opinion. Authorities may please think and decide on it.Dr. GOPAKUMAR V.University Librarian, Goa UniversityTaleigao Plateau, Goa.

This decision acknowledges the fact that DOAB is considered as key open science infrastructure with great potential for improving the current situation regarding the visibility of open access books. Eelco Ferwerda, co-director of DOAB, said: “the support from the French Open Science Committee to the SCOSS second round funding cycle is the first public commitment in this cycle, and it is a very substantial contribution. This funding will enable DOAB to invest in community management, to support the SCOSS campaign and to engage with the open science community.” SCOSS, the Global Sustainability Coalition for Open Science Services, was formed in early 2017 with the purpose of providing a new co-ordinated cost-sharing framework for enabling the broader OA and OS community to support the non-commercial services on which it depends. SCOSS launched its second funding cycle at the end of 2019, selecting both DOAB and OAPEN ( http://oapen.org/home) , and also PKP and Open Citations. Each of these infrastructures will receive funding from the French Open Science Committee. Recruitment: DOAB Community manager The SCOSS funding from the French Open Science Committee enables DOAB to recruit a Community manager, responsible for communication and acquisition. This is a full-time position for 12 to 18 months. The primary focus for acquisition will be managing the SCOSS fundraising campaign. Further details about this new position can be found here ( https://www.doabooks.org/doab?func=loadTemplate&template=jobOfferComunityMn… ) About DOAB DOAB is an online directory and discovery service for peer-reviewed OA books and OA book publishers. The primary aims of the service are to increase discoverability of OA books so that they can reach a broader audience, and to support trust in OA book publishing. Publishers provide the metadata of their publications to DOAB to increase dissemination, visibility and impact. Aggregators can integrate this metadata into their commercial services while libraries can do the same into their online catalogues, making it easier for scholars and students to discover the works. The directory is open to all publishers of academic, peer-reviewed books that are published in open access and that meet academic standards. All publishers included in DOAB are screened for their peer review procedures and licensing policies.

She shares her inspiring journey of teaching, handling global project works and institution building. She is of the strong view that the dynamically changing global trends in library and information science need to be seen through different lenses and also maintains that LIS is a meta discipline and hence we have to become meta by rising above the disciplinary borders.

I had seen him at drtc seminars. He was a very knowledgeable person. He managed icrisat with all information management tools in running it .  I think, we have lost a great professional.

Re: [LIS-Forum] L J Haravu passed away

Dear Colleagues, When I joined UNESCO in 1974 there was intense international debate about the advisability and feasibility of introducing ICT in information centres, particularly in developing countries. From the late seventies to the late eighties Shri L.J. Haravu, then at ICRISAT, made very important contributions to international cooperation on the application of ICT through an information science approach, notably by participating in several practical UNESCO activities like consultant missions and training. He helped me personally a lot in this context: always available, convivial, wise and competent. We then lost contact but a few years ago we met electronically for a stimulating discussion on the output of his new avocation as a general audience author. I like so many of you will miss him dearly, my deepest condolences to his family.

Mr Haravu
by Subbiah Arunachalam 05 Mar '20

05 Mar '20

Friends: Mr Haravu is no more but will live long in our memories as is evident from the large number of condolence messages pouring in in this list. He was good in setting up, professionally managing, and making libraries attractive and useful to the intended audience, but that is what is expected of all of us. He did something more. For example, he joined hands with Prof. Thyaga Natarajan, his teacher at INSDOC and who did not receive proper recognition, in a great project of creating a compendium of ragas and keerthanas of Carnatic music. I am not sure if he had made it available in the public domain; if not, someone should take the initiative, talk to members of his family and bring out the compendium. I came to know him when he was a trainee at INSDOC and I was working at the Publications & Information Directorate of CSIR. My workplace and his classroom were in the same floor in our office in the Pusa campus in New Delhi. But I never once spoke to him! Long afterwards, I went to Hyderabad to cover a technology conference hosted by BHEL and I met him at the BHEL booth and we had a brief chat. Again, after a long gap, when I was visiting ICRISAT (unofficially) to collaborate with my friend Muthu Madhan, I found his address and contacted him and he invited me home. This time we had a longer conversation. I could see the sense of fulfillment when he narrated the project he had been carrying out with Prof. Natarajan. RIP. Subbiah Arunachalam
