Can association support to LIS community in automation?
by vinod mishra 02 Jul '15

02 Jul '15

Dear All, I am just thinking about the contributions of LIS associations for advancement of technical services in library and information science field and hardly found much. Therefore i suggest one best and effective way for the same as follows: Since Koha are very popular now a days in India and abroad also but due to some lacking features in Indian context many could not able to use its best features and their is some financial concerns also for the libraries. So is it not possible for associations to see the lacking features in Koha as per Indian scenario and sponsor some good Koha vender to make some patches/plugin and make it public. For example at present Koha is not able to handle incremental fine but it is badly needed by many libraries so they can sponsor/fund some vender to make one plugin and share it to public through association website or other means. It will have better direct effect and contribution from LIS associations for the whole world as well as the concern association will also benefit a lot in my view. The associations may also get the sponsorship for the same from lot vender/publishers etc. Kindly give your feedback. Thanking You. -- *With Regards,Vinod Kumar Mishra,Assistant Librarian,Biju Patnaik Central Library (BPCL),* *NIT Rourkela,* *Sundergadh-769008,* *Odisha,* *India.* *Mob:91+9439420860* *Website: http://mishravk.com/ <http://mishravk.com/>* -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Koha-automated gate register-sponsorship-request
by jasim s 01 Jul '15

01 Jul '15

An appeal before koha users: Majority of libraries use printed gate registers.Why cant we switch to an automated one?. Mr.Vimal Kumar of Mahatma Gandhi University Library,Kerala has suggested this in bugzilla in 2013.Read the bugzilla post - http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=10105 Somebody has to write the script for that.It is assigned as an add-on bug in bugzilla. Everytime we are "consumers" of free features,can we go for "paid consumers" option for integrating the gate register feature in Koha. Biju Varghese of SH college Thevara,Kerala and Myself is ready to become partial sponsors. Infact sponsoring for projects like Koha ILMS is not a new news.see the following link dated june 30 ,2015-thanks Giving Press release of ByWater Solutions for Bohdan Šmilauer, a librarian in Prague, for his contribution to the Professional Cataloging interface development for Koha” http://bywatersolutions.com/2015/06/30/koha-development-initiative-receives… It will not be a huge amount for sponsoring some person to write the code,libraries can share their contributions.I came to know that Indranil Das Gupta,the bug wrangler at Koha ILMS of http://koha-community.org/ is currently working for writing gate register script. Kindly let me know any libraries wish to become the part of crowd funding Regards Jasimudeen S -- Librarian St.Stephen's College Uzhavoor Kerala 9895786534 www.jasim.in -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Here is a circular from SSRN which would be relevant to all social science students and researchers and librarians supporting them. Arun ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Gregg Gordon <Admin(a)ssrn.com> Date: Sun, Jun 28, 2015 at 12:37 AM Subject: SSRN's 2015 Mid-Year President's Letter To: subbiah.arunachalam(a)gmail.com <http://hq.ssrn.com/GroupProcesses/RedirectClick.cfm?partid=1406236&corid=35…> SSRN has delivered close to 88 million full-text PDF downloads and we are pleased with our continued growth. The SSRN eLibrary <http://hq.ssrn.com/GroupProcesses/RedirectClick.cfm?partid=1406236&corid=35…> currently contains 613,000 paper abstracts from 283,000 authors and received 64,000 new full-text submissions in the past year. SSRN's CiteReader technology, built with ITX Corp., has extracted over 9 million references and over 9 million footnotes, and matched over 6 million citations from our 510,000 full-text papers. As we approach the notable milestone of delivering 100 million downloads, we know that SSRN’s most important contributions to scholarship are helping researchers innovate faster, and provide Open Access and enhanced discovery of new results for the world. Our development team has been busy this year. We recently released the ability to View a PDF in the Browser; simplifying access and opening up a host of capabilities for readers and mobile users. Over the next few months, we will release the following improvements to SSRN: 1) Advanced Search for SSRN’s eLibrary (which will allow users to filter by subject network in addition to search term, author name and paper date); 2) allow authors to upload a photo and CV to their SSRN Author Pages; 3) greatly improve the ability to find and select a co-author during the submission process; and 4) create comprehensive Organization Home Pages that present a summary of individual organizations’ activity on SSRN with easy access to their authors, papers, metrics, Research Paper Series, Conferences, and rankings. We’ve spent significant resources over the past year strengthening the reliability and scalability of our technological systems. We will continue with that work over the next year, while also releasing new user features that improve the discovery and organization of scholarly research. Our mid-year distribution break is scheduled for Monday, 29 June 2015 through Sunday, 12 July 2015. During the break, SSRN's abstracting eJournals will not be distributed so that we can expand the capacity and improve the performance of our servers. We will continue to provide support for downloads, submissions, and subscriptions but there may be short periods of time during the break when the site is unavailable. For any requests during the break, please contact customer support at SSRNSupport(a)SSRN.com <ssrnsupport(a)ssrn.com> or call toll free 877-SSRNHelp (877-777-6435). Outside of the United States, call +1 585 442 8170. We are available Monday through Friday between 8:30AM and 6:00PM, United States Eastern time.

Do we really deserve to be known as Information Manager/Librarian in Digital Era?
by DP Tripathi 27 Jun '15

27 Jun '15

Dr. S.R.Ranganathan, also known as a ‘Father of Library Science in India’ propounded the five laws of library science in 1928 which was later published in the year 1931 in the form of Book. The law says: 1. Books are for use 2. Every reader his/her book 3. Every book its reader 4. Save the time of the reader 5. The library is a growing organism Every law has its implications and as per each implication, the ‘SERVICE’ is key point for any kind of library. As per the first law ‘Books are for use’, the books available in the library are for use. In another way if we analyze then it means that books in libraries should not be kept away from the user and it has to be utilized. Then only the first law will be satisfied. There are also some related issues with the term USE such as physical location of the library, library timings, circulation policy, furniture and qualified staff. As per the second law ‘Every reader his/her book’ means ‘Books for All’. The meaning says that every reader should get the books required. As per the third law, ‘Every book its reader’, it mainly focuses on DOCUMENTS which says that each document in the library has its own reader. Now, it is up-to libraries to find out the methods to attract the readers so that each documents finds it reader. The most useful method was suggested the ‘Open Shelving’ where the readers will be free from any restrictions in order to reach any particular document. As per the fourth law ‘Save the time of the reader’, the library and its staff is mainly responsible for the recognition of excellence of library by meeting the needs of library users efficiently. In other way we can say that the library users should get their books/information quickly as per their demand. It means the staff should have strong skills for reference, technical services and also easy circulation of documents. As per the fifth law ‘The library is a growing organism’, the library should be continually changing place for growth of qualified staff, physical size and collection of library and uses of resources effectively. Due to the advent of technology the scenario of libraries have changed and many new changes have taken places in the libraries everywhere. Now, we are equipped with high end technological tools with capability to provide high end services and highly qualified staff with infrastructure. In other words, over the period of time, we have slowly shifted to digital world. But, still question remains in the mind that “Do we really deserve to be known as Information Manager/Librarian?” Are we really providing the services to our library users as per their expectations?
