Librarian Post In State Degree Colleges
by Naveen Mathad 04 May '15

04 May '15

Dear Colleagues, Its unfortunate that even passing through NET/KSET and Getting A valid PH.D there are very few vacancies coming out specially in Karnataka recently KPSC called Asst Prof. Posts in many subjects except Librarian even though there are lots of vacant post available. In second time notification few more subjects added because of the pressure from the candidates and associations, unfortunately having strongest association than any other subjects Library association are not even raised single point with Higher education department to fill up the librarian posts. Along with few friends we met officials of the Higher education we got the answer as " we called very essential posts now in next notifications we will call leftout subject posts" but in the second notification they again left librarians. Its wondering Degree college librarian association or state library association are not even discussed about the negligence in filling librarian posts in degree colleges. At least now act on this dear office bearers of the association because any representation from the association counts rather than individual approach. >From - Naveen CM Research Scholar Mangalore University -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

In the wake of recent proposals to amend the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, as well as constant advances in the field of knowledge creation, coalition members are calling for responsive copyright law that balances the interests of those who create information and products with those of users and innovators, providing robust exceptions as well as limitations to copyright law in order that it not limit new uses and technologies. *Read More...* <http://mediasource.actonservice.com/acton/ct/10574/s-036d-1504/Bct/l-00b3/l…> WEEKLY COLUMNS FROM THE WIRE *Intersections, Frames, and Lines | Peer to Peer Review <http://mediasource.actonservice.com/acton/ct/10574/s-036d-1504/Bct/l-00b3/l…>* *By Kevin L. Smith* [image: Kevin L. Smith]So many ideas can be sparked by coincidental juxtaposition. In the past few weeks, I have been thinking about the intersections between scholarly communications and information literacy. This was largely because I was part of a panel at the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) Conference about the task force charged with implementing the 2013 White Paper on the topic. My specific task was to discuss how the new Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education illuminated the approach we called for in the white paper. On top of these concerns came the Blurred Lines copyright case, which was all over the media in the past few weeks, and about which I have been asked my opinion repeatedly. Can these different strands be woven into a coherent idea? *Read More...* <http://mediasource.actonservice.com/acton/ct/10574/s-036d-1504/Bct/l-00b3/l…> ------------------------------ [image: AD Gale Cengage Learning 300x250] <http://mediasource.actonservice.com/acton/ct/10574/s-036d-1504/Bct/l-00b3/l…> MORE NEWS *Ex Libris Acquires oMbiel, Establishes Mobile Campus Solutions Division <http://mediasource.actonservice.com/acton/ct/10574/s-036d-1504/Bct/l-00b3/l…>* *By Matt Enis* [image: campusM Logo]Ex Libris today announced the acquisition of Wolverhampton, U.K.-based oMbiel, developer of the campusM and governmentM cloud-based mobile app solutions for universities and local government services, respectively.

Libraries Make Space For 3-D Printers; Rules Are Sure To Follow
by Mohan Hr 30 Apr '15

30 Apr '15

Dear all, It is quite interesting to note the developments. "So, where once we thought of libraries as places where we had things for people, now we really do things for people -- or do things with people," -- Sari Feldman of ALA With regards HR Mohan Former AVP(Systems), The Hindu IPP, CSI & Chair, IEEE CS & PCS The story ======= Libraries Make Space For 3-D Printers; Rules Are Sure To Follow At hundreds of libraries across the U.S., 3-D printers can sometimes be heard whirring in the background, part of an effort to encourage interest in the new technology and foster DIY "maker spaces." In some libraries, officials have begun to set restrictions on the 3-D printers amid concerns about how they'll be used. At the University City Public Library in St. Louis, Patrick Wall recently printed a green plastic sword from the game Minecraft. He runs this library and was demonstrating its new 3-D printer for a group of kids and adults. The play sword took close to 1 1/2 hours to print, Wall says. The printer is roughly the size of a microwave with an open space in the middle. A coil of filament feeds an extruder that moves back and forth inside, dabbing molten plastic into layers that harden. The 3-D printer, a 3-D scanner and filament cost about $4,500, Wall says. University City was the first of two public libraries in the St. Louis area to set up 3-D printers for public use. But, according to the American Library Association, more than 250 libraries across the country that have one. "It's actually part of a larger trend," says the ALA's Sari Feldman. 3-D printers are just the newest example of the interactive spaces that libraries are becoming for their communities, she says. "So, where once we thought of libraries as places where we had things for people, now we really do things for people -- or do things with people," Feldman says. She says libraries large and small across the U.S. are setting up so-called "maker spaces," offering increasingly sophisticated hardware and software, including studio production equipment, design software and in some cases, even laser cutters.

Open source SMS::Send driver for Unicel released for use with Koha ILS
by Indranil Das Gupta 29 Apr '15

29 Apr '15

Dear all, Good news for Koha users in India who wish to use ‪SMS‬ notifications from Koha. L2C2 Technologies has released the first ‪open-source‬ India specific SMS::Send driver that can be used with Koha if you are an ‪Unicel‬ customer. Unicel Technologies is a fast growing bulk messaging provider from India. Recently I found myself testing out their transactional SMS service (for alerts and notifications from ‪#‎Koha‬ ILS). Initially I wrote a rudimentary driver for my own use. But seeing the demand for support of SMS notifications from Koha coming from Indian users on various fora, I decided to turn it into a formal SMS::Send driver and open source it by uploading it cpan.org http://search.cpan.org/~indradg/SMS-Send-IN-Unicel-0.01/lib/SMS/Send/IN/Uni… Happy Texting! regards, -- Indranil Das Gupta L2C2 Technologies Phone : +91-98300-20971 / +91-98745-80971 Blog : http://indradg.randomink.org/blog IRC : indradg on irc://irc.freenode.net Twitter : indradg -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Please exchange editable Office documents only in ODF Format.
