Friends: Please see < https://www.newschallenge.org/challenge/libraries/submissions/peerlibrary-f… >. This seems to be a great way to take new knowledge to the public. What science writers and journalists are expected to do. Public (and academic) librarians can work together with like-minded academics and researchers in bringing new knowledge to the people.

What can libraries do?
by Subbiah Arunachalam 03 Oct '14

03 Oct '14

Friends: What can public libraries do? Indeed a great deal. Here is a whole list of over 600 individuals (and some teams) articulating what they would want libraries to do. Please visit: <*https://www.newschallenge.org/challenge/libraries/feedback <https://www.newschallenge.org/challenge/libraries/feedback>*>. Such crowdsourcing can be of great value. In fact, in a way, it is the idea of crowdsourcing citizen science projects have used to advance science. Look at projects like Polymath, Galaxy Zoo, Foldit, and several others. In India, we have the OSDD (Open Source Drug Discovery) project (initiated by Prof. Samir Brahmachari, former Director General of CSIR). I would like to see professional associations in India (ILA, IASLIC, SIS, SLA-India, etc.) pay attention to such activities. Masters level courses in LIS should sensitize students to such issues.

OA Policies differ in their requirements. It is hoped that the comparative data will help institutions that already have an OA policy to monitor and compare its effectiveness with other policy models and will help institutions planning to adopt and OA policy to pick the most effective model.

#Personal#: One Day National Seminar on "Enhancing Access to Library Resources: A Critical Discussion, Examination and Evaluation of Web-Scale Discovery Services" on 14th Oct 2014 @ Jain University, JC Road Campus, Bangalore.
by Nagappa B 30 Sep '14

30 Sep '14

SLA Asian Chapter in collaboration with Jain University & KALA, sponsored by ProQuest Discovery... organizing a One Day National Seminar on " Enhancing Access to Library Resources. A Critical Discussion, Examination and Evaluation of Web-Scale Discovery Services" on 14th Oct 2014 @ Jain University, JC Road Campus, Bangalore. Objectives: v The seminar is intended to be a platform for discussion, knowledge sharing and demonstration of this emerging technology by eminent panel experts, subject experts as well as information professionals from premium institutions, who are the early adopters of Discovery Services. v To discover services effectively, we need to be able to measure and compare the similarity among services. Most ontology-based and IR-based discovery techniques assume that service input/output are simple data types when calculating service similarity. However, real-world services published on the Web usually have complex data types inputs/output parameters. v Furthermore a good match of parameters does not guarantee good usability and good reliability. The relevant services must be further evaluated by users’ past experiences. v Discovery services can play a vital role in a library’s strategic infrastructure. But it’s not a one-size-fits-all arena. The needs of public and academic libraries. For example, differ enormously. Libraries can select from a variety of options to deliver the best user experience, but they must be well-equipped with data and perspective as they place their bets in this critical area. The seminar would be a rare opportunity for LIS Professionals to gain knowledge on the following constituents of existing discovery tools and evaluation criteria, which can help in selected tools that fulfil the requirements and is sustainable: ü Library supplied data ü Open access and public domain data ü Publisher metadata and full text ü WSD-licensed material ü Mutually licensed. ü Issues and Challenges of accessibility/e-discovery ü Discovering information within and outsources resources ü Research and corporate needs ü Integration and filtering ü Discovery Dilemma: Volume-to/vs-Relevance ü User needs and satisfaction Handling volumes Speakers: Eminent personalities in the LIS field will talk on the above topics… Interaction: There will be a greater interaction with all participants through Panel Discussion… Who Can Participate? Library and information science professionals and scholars, Information technology professionals, Knowledge workers, Policy makers, Educationalists and academicians, E-learning communities, Content and knowledge managers, Library managers, Library consultants/Corporate professionals.
