January 14, 2020 is the last day Microsoft will provide security updates for Windows 7. According to Microsoft's estimates, there are 184 million commercial devices out there (as of April 2018 and excluding China) still on Windows 7. And 64 percent of those devices are more than five years old. Microsoft is advising partners to go after migration opportunities using the DaaS approach.

Here's our list of corporate innovation labs. Corporate innovation is critical for established companies looking to stay relevant in the face of disruption from up-and-coming start-ups. With industries being unbundled left and right (supermarkets, banking, cars — just to name a few) more companies are opening up in-house innovation labs every day. Sometimes corporate innovation goes wrong, and we’ve written about corporate innovation theater before. Now here’s our list of innovation labs, both newly formed and well established, working to turn new ideas into new opportunities at long-lived companies. Know these innovation labs <https://www.cbinsights.com/research/corporate-innovation-labs/> *Hit or myth? Understanding the true costs and impact of cybersecurity programs* Cybersecurity is a critical but often misunderstood aspect of companies’ technology infrastructures. Here’s how business and technology leaders can ensure that important corporate assets remain safe. Companies are using all kinds of sophisticated technologies and techniques to protect critical business assets. But the most important factor in any cybersecurity program is trust. It undergirds all the decisions executives make about tools, talent, and processes. Based on our observations, however, trust is generally lacking in many organizations’ cybersecurity initiatives—in part, because of competing agendas. Senior business leaders and the board may see cybersecurity as a priority only when an intrusion occurs, for instance, while the chief security officer and his team view security as an everyday priority, as even the most routine website transactions present potential holes to be exploited. This lack of trust gives rise to common myths about cybersecurity—for instance, about the types of threats that are most relevant, the amount of spending required to protect critical data, and even about which data sets are most at risk. Perceptions become facts, trust erodes further, and cybersecurity programs end up being less successful than they could be. If incidence of breaches has been light, for instance, business leaders may tighten the reins on the cybersecurity budget until the CIO or other cybersecurity leaders prove the need for further investment in controls—perhaps opening themselves up to attack. Conversely, if threats have been documented frequently, business leaders may reflexively decide to overspend on new technologies without understanding that there are other, nontechnical remedies to keep data and other corporate assets safe. In our experience, when there is greater transparency about companies’ cybersecurity programs, and trust among the various stakeholders, companies reap significant benefits. Businesses can make better decisions about their security priorities and response plans, as well as the training and investments required to hold attackers at bay. In this article, we explore four common myths executives tend to believe about cybersecurity, and we suggest joint actions business and IT executives can take to create more transparency and understanding company-wide about the technologies and processes that are most effective for protecting critical business information.

He graduated from the City College of New York in 1960 with a Bachelor of Chemical Engineering degree and received his Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley in 1963. Upon graduation, he joined the Research and Development Laboratory of Fairchild Semiconductor and became Assistant Director of Research and Development in 1967. In July 1968, Grove participated in the founding of Intel Corporation. In 1979 he was named President, and in 1987 Chief Executive Officer.” 1. “Success breeds complacency.

Although it’s already become a key driver in the medical and healthcare industries, the use of informatics is now also providing decision support in law firms, libraries, corporations, government agencies, and pretty much any organization able to gather and make use of data.

The Library of Congress is the largest library in the world, with millions of books, recordings, photographs, newspapers, maps and manuscripts in its collections. The Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH) provides an alphabetical listing of authorized or preferred terms established by the Library of Congress since 1898. 2. *NLM *(National Library of Medicine) NLM is the central coordinating body for clinical terminology standards within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) of the United States. The genesis of the NLM Classification is a Survey Report on the Army Medical Library, published in 1944, which recommended that the “(medical) Library be reclassified according to a modern scheme," and that the new scheme be a mixed notation (letters and numbers) resembling that of the Library of Congress. The National Library of Medicine Classification covers the field of medicine and related sciences, utilizing schedules QS-QZ and W-WZ, permanently excluded from the Library of Congress (LC) Classification schedules. 3. *RDA *(Resource Description and Access) RDA was launched in 2010 and is a new standard for resource description and access, designed for the digital world. RDA has been developed to replace the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules, 2nd Edition Revised, which were first published in 1978. Changes were made to the MARC 21 format to accommodate RDA elements. The British Library implemented RDA 1st April 2013 and coordinated implementation of RDA with national and international partners. 4. *MARC *(MAchine-Readable Cataloging) MARC standards are a set of digital formats for the description of items catalogued by libraries, such as books. Working with the Library of Congress, American computer scientist Henriette Avram developed MARC in the 1960s to create records that could be read by computers and shared among libraries. By 1971, MARC formats had become the US national standard for dissemination of bibliographic data. Two years later, they became the international standard. There are several versions of MARC in use around the world, the most predominant being MARC 21, created in 1999 as a result of the harmonization of U.S. and Canadian MARC formats, and UNIMARC, widely used in Europe. 5. *UNIMARC* The UNIMARC format was first published in 1977. The primary purpose of UNIMARC is to facilitate the international exchange of bibliographic data in machine-readable form between national bibliographic agencies. The scope of UNIMARC is to specify the content designators (tags, indicators and subfield codes) to be assigned to bibliographic records in machine-readable form and to specify the logical and physical format of the records. It covers monographs, serials, cartographic materials, music, sound recordings, graphics, projected and video materials, rare books and electronic resources. 6. *MARC 21* MARC 21 was designed to redefine the original MARC record format for the 21st century and to make it more accessible to the international community. MARC 21 has formats for the following five types of data: Bibliographic Format, Authority Format, Holdings Format, Community Format, and Classification Data Format.[2] Currently MARC 21 has been implemented successfully by The British Library, the European Institutions and the major library institutions in the United States, and Canada. 7. *MARCEdit* An open source system for manipulating and checking MARC records, created by US librarian Terry Reese in 1999 and maintained by him. 8. *KBART *(Knowledge Base and Related Tools) The KBART initiative, commissioned by NISO and UKSG, created at set of guidelines in order to help share metadata about electronic materials between publishers, link resolvers, and libraries. The result of these guidelines was KBART files, which include full title, issn, and other information about specific publications. KBART files are the industry standard file format for knowledgebase, and providing title list files in this format Link resolvers and librarians can download and use these files in order to update their records and holdings and ensure that end users have accurate information about accessible materials. 9. *DDC (23) *(Dewey Decimal Classification) The Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC), or Dewey Decimal System, is a proprietary library classification system first published in the United States by Melvil Dewey in 1876. It has been revised and expanded through 23 major editions, the latest issued in 2011, and has grown from a four-page pamphlet in 1876. It is also available in an abridged version suitable for smaller libraries. It is currently maintained by the Online Computer Library Center (OCLC), a non-profit cooperative that serves libraries. -- Dr. V.

Re: [LIS-Forum] Test mail from the moderator
by Francis Jayakanth 29 Jul '18

29 Jul '18

Dear Member, An update on the above mail. The major issue of delayed delivery of approved lis-forum mails seem to have been resolved after upgrading the LIS-Forum discussion list software. However, a few new issues have cropped up after the upgrade! One of them is, LIS-Forum has automatically unsubscribed several hundreds of registrations! Not able to figure out what could have triggering such a behaviour? A plausible cause could be the LIS-Forum's automatic bounce processing policy. Every time a lis-forum mail bounces, bounce score for that particular email id is incremented either by 0.5 or 1 depending on the reason for the bounce. When the bounce score is greater than the bounce score threshold set by the moderator, the subscription is automatically disabled. My guess is that in the older version of software, the automatic subscription disabling feature may not have been working as it should have, resulting in the accumulation of a large number of email IDs, which may have become defunct for various reasons. After the upgrade, the automatic disabling feature of the software may have purged all the defunct email ids resulting in large scale disabling of subscriptions. Every lis-forum registration, which is being automatically disabled/unsubscribed, an auto mail is being sent to that effect, The content of the auto mail is given below for your reference: > You have now been signed-off from the LIS-Forum discussion list. Thank > you for having been a member of this list. You are welcome to re-join > the list anytime by sending an e-mail to > lis-forum-request(a)ncsi.iisc.ernet.in or by visiting the URL: > http://ncsi.iisc.ernet.in/mailman/listinfo/lis-forum > - LIS-Forum Administrator To reactivate one's lis-forum subscription, either follow the link contained in the auto mail, or visit the link, http://ncsi.iisc.ernet.in/mailman/listinfo/lis-forum. Obviously, those members whose lis-forum registrations have been unsubscribed, will not be receiving this mail. So, if you get to know about your friends / colleagues who are not receiving lis-forum mails, please forward this mail to them.

Reg Depreciation value of Libray Books and Journals
by Dattatray Phadke 28 Jul '18

28 Jul '18

Dear LIS Professionald, Such questions have always been raised by bureaucrats or auditors However,if we look at central Finance rules No 99 and 116 ( OM no F23(7).11(A)/83Dt 7.02.1984/18 )books are not treated as Stores Items and If the people asking these questions refer these rule or they are told to refer it then questions of calculating successive asset value of books and journals and the depreciation value of them will not arise . We stock in library knowledge carriers and not the deadstock items. If we are able to calculate current or successive value of information contained in books and journals then certainly we can calculate the same Logically if the information in books and journals is still valuable then perhaps the value would appreciate There could be two possibilities that either it is obsolete or most valuable items . So in conclusion in aggregate it is not possible to calculate total current value of books and journals So the bureaucrats who raise question may elaborate on these facts .

Dear Members, As many of you would have observed, of late, LIS-Forum discussion list was behaving bit erratically. One of the main issues was that, the approved messages were taking more than 3-4 days to reach the members' inboxes! I have now installed a latest version of the discussion list software (Mailman) on a different computer system with better hardware configuration. Hopefully, the list should resume its normal functioning. Its quite likely that a few of the approved postings from the old system, which is now off the network, may not have been distributed. If you have made a lis-forum posting during the last week, or so, you are welcome a make a fresh posting once again.
