Dear All, I am facing a problem and need a solution for all you experienced folks. What do I do to increase the usage of eBooks in the onsite locations for employees who are posted/ live abroad and have no access to the library. Has anyone faced this problem of decreased/ no usage - and how did you handle it? Please advise.

FUNDERS PUNISH OPEN-ACCESS DODGERS
by Ragaavendra R 10 Apr '14

10 Apr '14

Dear Moderator pls circulate this. FUNDERS PUNISH OPEN-ACCESS DODGERS For years, two of the world's largest research funders - the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Wellcome Trust in the United Kingdom - have issued a steady stream of incentives to coax academics to abide by their open-access policies. Now they are done with just dangling carrots. Both institutions are bringing out the sticks: cautiously and discreetly cracking down on researchers who do not make their papers publicly available. Neither agency would name those who have been sanctioned. But the London-based Wellcome Trust says that it has withheld grant payments on 63 occasions in the past year because papers resulting from the funding were not open access. And the NIH, in Bethesda, Maryland, says that it has delayed some continuing grant awards since July 2013 because of non-compliance with open-access policies, although the agency does not know the exact numbers. FOR COMPLETE READ AND REFERENCE LINK:http://www.nature.com/news/funders-punish-open-access-dodgers-1.15007?… DISPATCHER NOTE: Is it possible to expect here similar kind of action from government funded researchers to make their results publicly available?.

With regards HR Mohan =================================================== Computer Society of India, Chennai Chapter IEEE Computer Society, Madras IEEE Professional Communication Society, Madras Announces One Day Workshop on Avoiding the Risks of Plagiarism in Research Publication On Saturday :: 3rd May 2014 :: 10.00 a.m. to 4.00 p.m Registration at 09.30 a.m. At Seminar Hall, CSI Education Directorate, Taramani, Chennai - 600113 This is a part of "CSI at 50 - Celebrating Golden Jubilee" Programme Series. A research publication brings immense credit to the researcher(s), their research supervisor(s) and their institution(s). However, plagiarism that creeps in publications widely now in our context, often unintentionally, presents great risks to them and damage their credibility and reputation. Plagiarism - reusing someone else's work and making it appear as their own without proper citations - is an unacceptable and unethical practice in research and other forms of writing. It may also result in copyright infringement subjecting the author to legal action. Professional institutions such as IEEE blacklist the authors who plagiarise their publications endangering their career. Moreover, it is now easier to detect plagiarism, autonomously. Therefore, it is vital for students, authors and their institutions to take specific measures to avoid plagiarism. The rise of plagiarism in this digital era is primarily due to lack of awareness of what is considered as plagiarism, how it can get into a publication, the risks it presents and methods of avoiding it. This one-day workshop is intended to create the desired awareness among the stakeholder about plagiarism and outline measures to prevent it and, thereby, to help them safeguard from the plagiarism risks. About the Program ============== The workshop comprises of two major sessions. The morning session will present an overview on plagiarism, outlines major issues and risks in plagiarism, and suggest (institutional) measures combat this seemingly growing problem facing researchers, authors, educational institutions and conference organisers. The afternoon session will discuss in detail of how to avoid plagiarism in academic writing - journal and conference publications, thesis and others - while highlighting and acknowledging findings and contributions of other authors and researchers. It will also outline proper way of quoting and citing contents from other publications. The program will consist of invited presentations, discussions and Q&A sessions. Speakers / Resource Persons ====================== Prof. C. R. Muthukrishnan, Former Deputy Director, IIT Madras Prof. San Murugesan, Editor-in-Chief, IEEE IT Professional, Adjunct Prof. , Univ. of Western Sydney, Australia Prof. L.S. Ganesh, Dept. of Management Studies, IIT Madras Prof. S. Karmalkar, Dept. of Electrical Engineering, IIT Madras Prof. Gopalaswamy Ramesh, Author and Consultant, Adjunct Prof. IIITB, Guest Faculty, IIT Madras Participants ========= This workshop is particularly intended for researchers, research degree students, research supervisors, academics, examiners, senior staff and executives of universities and colleges, and conference organisers. Participants will benefit from gaining awareness of plagiarism and how to avoid or control it. Thereby they can enhance the quality of their publications and their credibility and improve their and their institution's profile. The workshop also helps in improving our national standing in the international arena. Registration Fee ============ The fee includes service tax and covers course material, lunch, tea & certificate of participation.

Need help for IRB survey
by Sangeeta Narang 09 Apr '14

09 Apr '14

Dear Library Professionals, I under the guidance of my mentor, Charles Greenberg are conducting a survey on the involvement of librarian in protection of human research subjects. This survey is for an IFLA paper that I am writing with him. The excerpts from the abstract are: As the scope of human subject research expands beyond traditional biomedical frontiers, the ability to apply vigilance to educate, inform, and protect humans of all ages strains the capacity of many institutions to apply a thorough and rigorous standard at all times. The most widely recognized mechanism to assess human protections in a research proposal is an institutional review board (IRB), also known as an independent ethics committee (IEC) or ethical review board, which are often mandated for institutions in some countries. This paper is based on an environmental scan of current librarian involvement in protection of human research subjects as part of a proposed research paper for IFLA 2014. If you know a librarian who has contact, please pass this message to those that either serve an IRB or IEC or other form of bioethics review group that is charged with protecting human research subjects. Of course, you may be the best person to share your experience. Here is the link: http://ku.co1.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_50gv8KswvRzb6Wp A short version of the same link: http://tinyurl.com/2104irblib We are aware of the important articles by librarians and physicians on this topic and will also have a literature review of those articles in our paper to accompany the survey results. Your feedback and comments are welcome With best regards Sangeeta Narang Librarian Grade-I, NDDTC All India Institute of Medical Sciences Ansari Nagar New Delhi-110029 E-mail : narang.sangeeta(a)yahoo.co.in sangeeta.bbdl(a)gmail.com -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Plagiarism, Copyright, Publishers and Authors
by Anil Singh 09 Apr '14

09 Apr '14

Dear friends, Plagiarism is a burning topic in LIS community now-a-days. Many workshops, seminars have been organized on copyright laws and plagiarism. Everybody knows that plagiarism is unethical, but in-spite of that nothing has changed. Authors and Publishers both are still involved in this practice. On this forum, I would like to draw kind attention of all the readers on two instances of Plagiarism. My one paper "Design and Development of a Himalayan Studies Information System for India: A Proposed Model" was published in INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND LIBRARIES, Vol. 24, No. 1 (2005). This journal is being published by Library and Information Technology Association (LITA),- a division of the American Library Association (ALA). The same full paper was published as one of the chapters of the book entitled "Forests of Himalaya" by Anuraj Diwedi in 2009. This book was published by CYBER TECH PUBLICATIONS, Darya Ganj, New Delhi. Author has not given citation of my paper. Like this publisher, many publishers in India have emerged in recent years which prepare the books by cut and paste technique. In such type of books there will be no affiliation of the author. These publishers give the author's bio-data like.... Mr. Anuraj Diwedi is a seasoned teacher over three decades........he has been honoured by various scientific organizations.....A prolific writer, he has many outstanding books....etc. The other example is of one of my paper "Career in Library and Information Science" which was published in the August 2008 issue of Employment News - which is one of the most widely circulated newspapers of India. From this article, much of the portion was copied by two faculty members and one senior LIS professionals and none of them cited this paper. Now the two important questions are: 1. Is it possible that these publishers, authors, LIS professionals or teachers are unaware of copyright laws and plagiarism? 2. What is the responsibility of ISBN awarding agency, who awarded ISBN without checking the author's affiliations. Plagiarism is rising day by day in education system. We have seen many prominent persons in the field of education who have been caught in this act. The 'copy/cut and paste' tendency has increased the plagiarism. Rather than organizing seminars, workshops or training on IT tools like Turnitin, we should focus on teaching value education and ethics to authors, publishers and teachers. Feedback and comments are welcome. -- with regards, Anil Singh Assistant Director (LS) Competition Commission of India (CCI) (Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Govt. of India) 'B' Wing, HUDCO VISHALA, 14, Bhikaji Cama Place, New Delhi - 110066 -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Open Access Library
by Sandeep Bhavsar 07 Apr '14

Respected All http://www.oalib.com/ Open Access Library (www.oalib.com) is an academic search engine and publisher. You can download research papers for free and submit your paper to it. It is a shared academic database. It is a handy tool which helps researchers performing their research and helps students with their studies. In the past researchers had to spend a lot of money on purchasing papers. Google Scholar changed this situation a little bit. However most of the papers listed in the search result are not free to access. Open Access Library (OALib) has been changing it. Papers published or indexed by OALib are made freely accessible by scholars all over the world. It helped a lot to the researchers in the developing countries or those who have not enough funding to pay for reading papers. OALib has indexed over 2,000,000 open access papers till now. You can easily find and download papers you need by its advanced searching engine. It also has a very easy flow to submit a paper and make it accessible widely. Thanks to Open Access, research and studies have become easier and more fun. http://www.oalib.com/ -- *Regards * *Sandeep Bhavsar* B.com, M.Lib.I.Sc SET, M.Phil, American Library Association - FERA 2011 fellow Librarian Dr. V N Bedekar Institute of Management Studies Thane (W) 400601 Mumbai INDIA Mobile : 9987049099 www.vpmthane.org -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
