Article Request: Not a Professional Way to Approach through Forums
by Vasanth 20 Nov '15

20 Nov '15

Dear Sir/Madam, Approaching for request for article in forum is not at all a healthy practice. We must not encourage professionals to post request for articles in LIS Forum except in a very rare cases. Once they get the required article through somebody they continue that practice without subscribing a particular journal or becoming a member of DELNET or other similar networks. Sometime they make it a habit of sending requests for sending 10 to 15 articles even more than that. Even though some of the articles available freely on the web through central repositories/institutional repositories they won't search and find. They rely somebody for articles. We can add many things but we must ask them to find articles on their own by sending a article request for the original authors of papers or purchasing through online database vendors or becoming partners with ILL service providers. ------------------------- With best wishes Vasantha Raju N. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Moderating Conference Sessions
by Vimal Kumar V. 18 Nov '15

18 Nov '15

This informative blog post found at David Lee Kings Blog, http://www.davidleeking.com/ Here are some tips on moderating at conferences and events found: Email speakers in advance. Ask your speakers to double-check their bios or supply one. Tell them to email you with questions if they have any. Get there early. You’ll want to make sure the room is ready, the mics are on, and the projector is working. Set the mood for the day. At the start of the first session, tell attendees what’s going on in your room for the day, especially if you are moderating a whole track of sessions based on a theme (i.e., a web developer’s track). That helps people know what to expect for the day. There might also be some last minute changes that you need to share. Introduce yourself to the sound dude. Most event centers and hotels have staff who set up and run the audio for each session. Sometimes they hang out in the room the whole time; more often than not, they are busily running to each room, making sure everyone’s ok. That person can make or break the event. So introduce yourself as the moderator and find out how to contact them if you need anything. Know how to use the mic. Know how to turn it on, how to attach it if it’s a lavalier mic, etc. Check out my article on good mic technique for some more tips. Test the equipment. Make sure the speaker is comfortable with the tech they are using. If they are switching between slides and a video, make sure they practice that. Test the audio levels of the video. Remind people how to advance slides. Yes, that sounds silly … but when an inexperienced speaker is standing in front of 200 people, they can get flustered pretty easily and forget those simple things. Paraphrase the bio. Especially if it’s long. No one really wants to hear you read 600 words about the speaker. Give just enough to introduce the speaker, then get to the talk. Time the sessions. At a busy conference with lots of sessions, you have to keep a tight schedule. I set two alarms on my iPhone – one goes off when there’s 5 minutes left, and one when time’s up. Multiple speakers need equal time. If there are two or more speakers during a session, make sure to give them equal amounts of time to speak. tell each presenter how much time they have, and then stick to it. It’s never fun to have your 15-minute presentation turned into a rushed 6-minute mess (been there, done that). If it’s a panel discussion, include everyone. When moderating a panel, make sure everyone on the panel has a chance to speak. If someone’s not talking, it’s your job to draw them into the conversation. On the other hand, if someone is talking too much, it’s your job to give other panelists a chance to speak. An easy way to do that is to say something like “Thanks for that idea. What do the other panelists think?” And turn to someone else to give them a chance to speak. Repeat the question. During the Q & A time at the end, make sure to either repeat the question that was asked, or have the speaker do it. If the room is large, some people won’t hear the question, and sometimes the session is being recorded. It also helps make sure you get the question right. Move people along. This goes with timing the sessions. You might need to cut off a long-winded speaker, or end the Q & A, to move people along to the next session. Sometime during the Q & A, I usually walk to to the podium and stand by the speaker. I’ll help find people with questions. When it’s about time to end the session, I’ll say something like “we have time for one more question.” After that question is answered, I’ll make sure to thank the speaker, and tell people what’s coming next (i.e., lunch break, next session in 15 minutes, etc). -- Vimal Kumar V.

"Book talk in Library Science" at MyLISA, Mysuru
by Sunil MV 16 Nov '15

16 Nov '15

Dear Professional Friends, National Library Week 2015 is Underway! MyLISA, Mysuru wishes everyone a wonderful NLW 2015! The Mysore Librarians and Information Scientists’ Association, fondly called MyLISA, has come out with an idea of launching a monthly series called ‘Book Talk in Library Science’ as a part of ensuing National Library Week. Normally, the ‘book talk’ is offered as a service in libraries for the benefit of their users, and not intended to hep the LIS professionals. However, in this case, a professional association is taking the lead to organize the talk exclusively for LIS professionals and students. A speaker will talk about a book in library and information science for a half an hour and that will be followed by an interaction. Speakers can choose any book in LIS for the talk, but textbook-like books will be discouraged from being the subject of the talk. The language of the talk will either be in English or the local language Kannada, depending again on the preference of the speaker. The starter of the series will be held on Wednesday, the 18th November 2015 at 4 PM. Dr. N.S. Harinarayana, Associate Professor, Department of Library and Information Science, University of Mysore, Mysore will be the speaker on the book “Ramanjuan: The Man and the Mathematician” authored by Dr. S.R. Ranganathan. Dr. Muzaffar H. Assadi, Professor and Chairman, Department of Political Science, University of Mysore, Mysore, will be present on the occasion as the Chief Guest. The inaugural of the series will be held at Manasa Hall, Mysore University Building, Manasagangotri, Mysore. All are cordially invited. We welcome your suggestions and views on this initiative. With Regards, Dr. Sunil M.V. Librarian Shri Dharmasthala Manjunatheshwara Institute for Management Development (SDMIMD) No. 1, Chamundi Hill Main Road, Siddharthanagar Post, Mysore - 570 011, INDIA Mobile: 99864 39832 | Telephone: 0821-2429722 Extn: 3006 * Please consider your environmental responsibility before printing this e-mail* -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Article requests - The rule of Five
by Vasumathi Sriganesh (QMed) 14 Nov '15

14 Nov '15

I thought I should do something more, on this topic and have found the CONTU Guideline - Rule of Five https://www.copyright.com/Services/copyrightoncampus/content/ill_contu.html Important bits: 1. It applies to articles that are less than five years old 2. A library that asks - may not ask for more than five articles from one journal, in a year But - we need to read the entire contents. They also mention that these are Guidelines and not the law, but overall, we need to really follow these!
