National Digital Library OR National Metadata Library OR National Union Catalogue ?
by vinod mishra 27 Sep '16

27 Sep '16

Dear All, National Digital Library (NDL) hosted by IIT Kharagpur https://ndl.iitkgp.ac.in/index.php seems to be one of the biggest and best project to provide full text educational materials for all.I just searched and find it is nothing but collection of metadata from various sources and has been dumped at one place. For example as per its link top items are: Book 715536 Article 279582 Audio lecture 206336 Thesis 95259 Chapter 49502 Journal 37726 Question paper 33888 But i don't think all are available in full text even 30/40 % and the full text which is available is either already available in open access or subscribed by the concern institutes. For example the e-books, articles etc. Further, The thesis of IIT'S/IIM'S/IISc are not at all available on this portal and you may get error message while attempting to access full text as they are on Intranet. Further, in many cases you may not get resource location information as usually provided in Union catalogue for example Springer e-books catalogue has been blindly uploaded their without full text access or location of library where full text is subscribed. So my view is as per its present shape its name should be National Metadata Library (NML) . Please suggest or give your feedback as i am too much expecting from this huge amount project. -- With Regards, Vinod Kumar Mishra, Assistant Librarian, Biju Patnaik Central Library (BPCL), NIT Rourkela, Sundergadh-769008, Odisha, India.

CNI's Clifford Lynch on the need to re-think the institutional repository -
by Subbiah Arunachalam 23 Sep '16

23 Sep '16

Friends: Here is a message posted on the GOAL list by Mr Richard Poynder, the indefatigable commentator on OA developments around the world. Seventeen years ago 25 people gathered in Santa Fe, New Mexico, to discuss ways in which the growing number of e-print servers and digital repositories could be made interoperable. As scholarly archives and repositories had begun to proliferate a number of issues had arisen. There was a concern, for instance, that archives would needlessly replicate each other’s content, and that users would have to learn multiple interfaces in order to use them. What was therefore needed was to develop tools and protocols that would allow repositories to work in concert on a distributed basis. Above all, there was a need to make distributed archives interoperable so that their content could be aggregated into a single searchable virtual archive of (eventually) all published research. The meeting led to the Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH), and to the institutional repository movement. Today there are thousands of institutional repositories around the world. Yet 17 years later the interoperability promised by OAI-PMH has not really materialised, few third-party service providers have emerged to leverage the content in repositories, and duplication has not been avoided. Moreover, to the exasperation of green OA advocates, authors have proved reluctant to take on the task of depositing their papers in these repositories. Some therefore now believe that the institutional repository faces an existential threat. At the very least, they say, it is time to rethink the role and purpose of the institutional repository. These and other matters are discussed in an interview with Clifford Lynch, director of the Washington-based Coalition for Networked Information and one of those who attended the Santa Fe meeting. The Q&A (plus introduction) can be accessed here: http://poynder.blogspot.co.uk/2016/09/q-with-cnis-clifford-l ynch-time-to-re_22.html ----- Arun http://orcid.org/0000-0002-4398-4658 http://www.researcherid.com/rid/B-9925-2009 -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Student Seminar-3
by drtc＠isibang.ac.in 21 Sep '16

21 Sep '16

INDIAN STATISTICAL INSTITUTE DOCUMENTATION RESEARCH & TRAINING CENTRE (DRTC) 8th Mile, Mysore Road, RVCE Post Bengaluru,560059. DRTC Seminar: 03 (2015-2017) Topic: Knowledge management using social network analysis. ABSTRACT Knowledge management is the process of capturing, developing, sharing and effectively using organisational knowledge for the development and growth of the organisation. The goal is to improve the organisational output by empowering the individual members to create, capture and share knowledge in a network for better decision making for the organisation. Some knowledge (especially the tacit knowledge) could be learned only through repeated experiences or being transferred verbally from one individual to the next. A network especially the informal network within or outside the organisation where the knowledge flows between people in a group or outside the group is called social network and the methods and matrices use to understand the flows of knowledge is known as Social Network Analysis (SNA). In the 1960s organisations used to perform network analysis for the creation and assess of knowledge out of the communication network among its employees by collecting data through the questionnaire, interviews, and so forth. Today with the online social network (e.g., twitter, facebook), we have a massive amount of data inflowing, and it is easy to understand that the application of those traditional approaches like questionnaire and interviews would be highly expensive and complicated. We need a different set of approaches which are scalable to the volume of data we produce in the online social networks and also would allow to model social relations, facilitate informal exchange between individuals or between inside groups or communities easily and relatively at low cost. In this seminar, we will briefly discuss knowledge management in perspective of social network and network analysis. We will also discuss some of the open source tools for instance dmi-tcat, gephi, and netviz available for capturing and analysing the social network data. SPEAKER : SHIVA SHANKAR MAHATO DATE:22/9/2016 TIME:2:00 P.M. VENUE: DRTC class room (G-21), ISI, Bengaluru. All are cordially invited.

Copyright is not a devine right - HC
by D.V. Patwardhan 19 Sep '16

19 Sep '16

Sir, This has reference to your discussion dt.18thsept, 2016 on “University copyingbooks for teaching is not copyright violation: Delhi HC (Vinod Mishra)”. Delhi HC ruling “Copyrightis not a devine right” is surprising. Copying “part of the contents” (one copyonly) from a book for educational purpose may not be violation of copyright andis was practiced since many decades by national agencies such as INSDOC andBLDSC. But, I feel that Copying full book in multiple copies is clear violationof copyright. I seek more explanation from copyright experts. D.V.Patwardhan Bengaluru
