by Subbiah Arunachalam 10 Jul '17

10 Jul '17

From: Julie Therizols <julie.therizols(a)openedition.org> Date: Thu, 6 Jul 2017 11:26:46 +0200 New Features, New Publishers and Growth Growth and new publishers We now have over 8000 books from over 200 publishers listed in DOAB. We are happy to say DOAB consistently features among the fastest growing OA resources in the blog post on ‘Dramatic Growth of Open Access’ <http://doabooks.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=314fa411ba5eaaee7244c95e1…> by Heather Morrison in The Imaginary Journal of Poetic Economics. This year DOAB features as number one and two in growth by percentage, with a 68% growth for books and 40% for publishers in the past year. Since the start of 2017, we have added 50 new publishers to DOAB. An important contribution to this year’s growth is thanks to our cooperation with OpenEdition <http://doabooks.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=314fa411ba5eaaee7244c95e1…>, who added the OA books of 26 new publishers, among others: Presses Sorbonne Nouvelle, Presses universitaires d'Aix-Marseille and Presses universitaires de Rennes. Other new publishers listed in DOAB in 2017 are: LIBRUM Publishers, University of North Texas Press, Edition Open Access, Carl Grossmann Verlag, Heidelberg University Publishing and through our cooperation with SciELO: Editus and Editora UEPG. New features DOAB: chapter level metadata and ONIX import DOAB is taking part in a European Horizon 2020 project (HIRMEOS), to develop a certification service for OA book publishers. As part of this project, new features are being added to DOAB. It is now possible to distinguish between chapters and books. A chapter is clearly indicated at the publication’s record. Also, funder information is now included in the metadata. Have a look at this example <http://doabooks.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=314fa411ba5eaaee7244c95e1…> of a chapter where both additions are in place. Another important new feature of DOAB is the possibility for publishers to get their publications and metadata indexed in DOAB through ONIX XML import. If you are a publisher in DOAB and would like to know more about ONIX import, please contact our technical coordinator Ronald Snijder. <r.snijder(a)oapen.org> FWF certifies DOAB sponsor De Gruyter as publisher for open access books Researchers affiliated with FWF (Austrian Science Fund) <http://doabooks.us4.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=314fa411ba5eaaee7244c95e…>, who choose to publish their research output in pure open access with DOAB publisher and sponsor De Gruyter <http://doabooks.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=314fa411ba5eaaee7244c95e1…>, can have publication costs fully covered by FWF. The program helps authors focus on their research, while paperwork and payments are processed jointly by the FWF and the publisher. The offer applies to articles, books and book chapters, provided the main/corresponding author’s Institution is affiliated with the FWF. All open access books published by De Gruyter are indexed by DOAB <http://doabooks.us4.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=314fa411ba5eaaee7244c95e…> . OAPEN deposit service and compliancy list for publishers The OAPEN Library <http://doabooks.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=314fa411ba5eaaee7244c95e1…> hosts books and chapters in open access and works with several funders to host long-text publications resulting from the research they fund. Authors and publishers can deposit relevant research publications directly in the OAPEN Library. The service is intended for books and chapters based on research funded by OAPEN’s partners: the European Research Council, <http://doabooks.us4.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=314fa411ba5eaaee7244c95e…> Wellcome <http://doabooks.us4.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=314fa411ba5eaaee7244c95e…>, and the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) <http://doabooks.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=314fa411ba5eaaee7244c95e1…> .

Resource Description and Access

*** Our apologies for cross-posting this message*** Resource Description and Access <https://librarianshipstudies.blogspot.com/2017/07/resource-description-and-…> Glossary of Library & Information Science - RESOURCE DESCRIPTION AND ACCESS (RDA) <https://librarianshipstudies.blogspot.com/2017/07/resource-description-and-…> ➨ RDA stands for “Resource Description and Access” and is the title of the standard, that is the successor to AACR2. Resource Description and Access (RDA) is a standard for descriptive cataloging providing instructions and guidelines on formulating bibliographic data. Resource Description & Access (RDA) is a set of cataloging instructions based on FRBR and FRAD, for producing the description and name and title access points representing a resource. RDA offers libraries the potential to change significantly how bibliographic data is created and used. RDA is a standard for resource description and access designed for the digital world. It provides (i) A flexible framework for describing all resources (analog and digital) that is extensible for new types of material, (ii) Data that is readily adaptable to new and emerging database structures, (iii) Data that is compatible with existing records in online library catalogs. RDA is a package of data elements, guidelines, and instructions for creating library and cultural heritage resource metadata that are well-formed according to international models for user-focused linked data applications. RDA goes beyond earlier cataloging codes in that it provides guidelines on cataloging digital resources and places a stronger emphasis on helping users find, identify, select, and obtain the information they want. RDA also supports the clustering of bibliographic records in order to show relationships between works and their creators.

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.

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.

Re: [LIS-Forum] GST implications on Library Resources (Sushanta Kumar Pathy)
by Anand Dodamani 03 Jul '17

Dear Sushant, Thanks for your mail inviting the attention of library managers towards the newly introduced GST. As per the GST, the printed books are exempted from the tax. However, there are some anomalies with regard to the children's picture books and other categories of books (including the e-books). The Federation of Educational Publishers in India (FEPI) is trying to persuade the government to keep all types of books away from the GST. Let us hope for the best.
