Dear Professionals, Mrs. Ashalatha, Scientist 'F' and Head, Library and Information Centre , ISRO Head Quarters is superannuating today, 31st Oct 2014. She did MLIS from Bangalore University (Course conducted at DRTC along with my batch of 1976-77). Then she worked with Late Prof. M.A. Gopinath as Research Assistant in designing Depth Schedule for Zoology and Botany. She joined ISRO HQ as Scientific Assistant in 1978 and served for more than 37 years. She has been leading a fairly big and rich Special Library of ISRO HQ since 1998. She took lead for giving online access to good number of e-journals for ISRO Patrons. She has been responsible in developing an Institutional Repository using DSpace, giving access to >12,500 items like research articles, internal reports, lectures, newspaper clippings, etc and made it available for the benefit of all ISRO centres through SPACENET. She has provided customised team services covering both bibiographic and full texts covering topics like Moon Mission, GSLV, PSLV, Mars Mission and Space Debris. She took initiative to form ISRO Libraries Consortia, but some how it did not materialise. She has trained many young LIS professionals and developed her team to carry forward her good work, To her credit she has presented some papers in International Conferences and also few publications. I wish her a healthy, happy and fruitful life ahead. I also wish all the best for her successor at LIS, ISRO HQ, yet to be posted. Regards, - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dr. I.R.N.

Librarian is yet important!!!
by T. Shahab .TANWIR 31 Oct '14

31 Oct '14

Dear all, Librarians act like filters; they validate; they collate and repackage the information to fulfill the specific requirements of users. Certainly the profession is not dispensable. The thing really required of us professionals is that we truly read the writing on the wall to reinvent ourselves as information processors rather than continue in the dormant role of book/journal dispensers. "Google can bring you back 100,000 answers, a librarian can bring you back the right one." – Neil Gaiman With best regards, Dr. T.

by Subbiah Arunachalam 31 Oct '14

31 Oct '14

Prof. Timothy Gowers is a celebrated mathematician. A professor at the University of Cambridge, UK, he is a Fellow of the Royal Society and a Fields Medalist. In the midst of his research and teaching he finds time to make scientific research freely accessible. Not only did he, through the PolyMath project, give an opportunity for interested common citizens to take part in solving high level research questions, but he also initiated the Cost of Knowledge (aka Boycott Elsevier) movement. He is a great champion of freeing access to knowledge from the stranglehold of commercial interests. He maintains a blog. Here is an entry he contributed six months ago. <*http://gowers.wordpress.com/2014/04/24/elsevier-journals-some-facts/ <http://gowers.wordpress.com/2014/04/24/elsevier-journals-some-facts/>*> Best wishes.

Wheeling out a library for all
by Padmanabha Vyasamoorthy 28 Oct '14

28 Oct '14

News items like these go to prove that people will pay for reading books, if you render meaningful services. Near the locality where I live there is a fee based library called ARESS library. Charges for lending a title is 10% of cost of acquiring the book. This may even come Rs 120 per book per month. She has been in business for more than 10 years. See URL for images: http://www.punemirror.in/pune/civic/Wheeling-out-a-library-for-all/articles… Vyasamoorthy ================= Wheeling out a library for all Pune Mirror | Oct 28, 2014, 02.30 AM IST Library Mall (top) currently has around 500 members, and a collection of 7,000-odd books; inset: Nikam with customers (Photo by Nikhil Ghorpade) By: Suktara Ghosh Six yrs after starting a mobile library at Chinchwad, Abhijit Nikam is rolling into Pune. When 24-year-old Abhijit Nikam quit a well-paying job in an automobile spare parts manufacturing company to start a library, all hell broke loose. Neither his family nor his in-laws — he had been married only a year — wanted anything to do with the new venture. Undeterred, Nikam invested his own savings — about Rs 2.5 lakh, bought a van, 1,000 books and started a library-on-wheels at Chinchwad in May 2008. This week, he's ready to roll out a second van and is all set to enter Pune with Library Mall, as the mobile library is known. "Pune has a bigger reading market and I'll begin with rounds of Kothrud, Katraj, Viman Nagar, Kharadi and Vishrantwadi," said the now 29-year-old, who works with a four-member team. He is gearing up to buy around more 2,000 books. An ardent reader himself, propagating Marathi literature and encouraging the young generation to read are mainly what drives Nikam. "People barely read these days and very few children are aware of the richness of Marathi literature. The mobile library is a step towards enhancing knowledge," he said. Of the 7,000-odd books in Nikam's van, almost 5,000 are in Marathi and range across all genres. The rest are in English. Library Mall currently has around 500 members. "I initially spent a lot of time talking to housing society officials and obtaining permission to wait in front of buildings. Initially, only one or two people enrolled, but the numbers have increased slowly," he said. Most of the readers are between 30 and 45 years old. Hemant N Bhagwat, who runs an engineering and management institute in Chinchwad and has been a member of Library Mall for one-and-a-half years, said, "The mobile library works for people like me who can't match the timings of local libraries. Nikam or his team call me before coming in the evening. They have a good collection of Marathi books and my wife, daughter and I are regular readers." Another member, Tushar P Deshpande, feels Library Mall has helped spread the habit of reading at a minimal cost (deposit of Rs 500, registration fee of Rs 250 and a monthly rental of Rs 250 against five books at a time). "There are nearly 100 members from my society in Queenstown. They have a good collection," he gushed. However, Nikam admits he hasn't been able to make a profit yet. "Whatever money we make goes back into the library," he said, adding that he hopes expanding the business would bring in profit. "I had a tough time convincing my wife and brother to help me — they agreed only about four years ago. I knew there wouldn't be much money, but the objective is to spread knowledge," said Nikam. Ask him if he feels online reading is competition for libraries, and he disagrees. "I have set up an online portal, where people can browse. But reading on a Kindle or a tablet can be tiring. And, the physical book can never be replaced," he asserted. -- -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

INDIAN STATISTICAL INSTITUTE Documentation Research & Training Centre 8th Mile, Mysore Road, RVCE Post Bangalore-560 059 DRTC Seminar- 5, 2014 Data Literacy ABSTRACT In our increasingly data-driven society, data literacy is an important civic skill which we should be developing in our society. Data is slowly but steadily forcing their way into the societies. Data literacy may seem less technical than either Computer Science or any other fields. Still we need to envisage a wide variety of tools for accessing, converting and manipulating data. These require to understand relational databases (like MS Access), data manipulation techniques, statistical software tools (like Minitab, SPSS, STATA and MS Excel) and data representation software tools (like MS PowerPoint and MS Excel). This seminar includes an introduction to data literacy, its inter-relationship with information literacy and statistical literacy. It also includes various steps for working with data followed by short demonstration of data analysis techniques by using the software STATA11. Speaker: Jayanta Kr. Nayek Date:29.10.2014. Time: 2 p.m. Venue: DRTC, ISI Bangalore. All are cordially invited.
