Now, books at the doorstep of senior citizens, disabled (Chandigarh)
by Padmanabha Vyasamoorthy 19 Feb '10

19 Feb '10

Now, books at the doorstep of senior citizens, disabled TNN, Sep 8, 2009, 01.34am IST CHANDIGARH: There is cheer for senior citizens and disabled in Chandigarh who are fond of reading books and magazines. UT administration has decided to take the library to the doorsteps of senior citizens who are fond of reading but cannot visit libraries owing to the age factor or physical deformity. All that they will have to do for availing the facility is to ring up a number and convey what all they want to read. The scheme is being launched on September 8, World Literacy Day. Conceived under the community outreach programme, the education department, in collaboration with state NSS cell and central state library, has arranged to execute the scheme and deliver books and magazines at houses of senior citizens and disabled with the help of NSS volunteers. Director higher education Ajoy Sharma, the brain behind the scheme, said, "Such persons require assistance and we are doing our best to reach out to them, for ensuring that they do not feel handicapped and their reading habit is sustained. If the aged and disabled cannot come to the library, let the library go to them," he quipped. The modalities of implementation of the scheme have already been worked out. For convenience sake, Chandigarh has been divided into five zones- north, east, west, south and central. Every zone will have two coordinators and 12 NSS volunteers. All that the senior citizens and disabled have got to do is to ring up 2701269 and tell the person at the other end what books or magazines they want to read. The librarians will approach the coordinator in their respective areas who will further assign the work to NSS volunteers. The delivery will be made thrice in a week- on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday, over 15 days. The volunteers will deliver and collect the books or magazines from their houses. State librarian Suraj P Nagpal said Chandigarh had central state library, Sector-17, state library, Sector-34, three branch libraries at Manimajra, one in village Badheri and a reading room at Burail. Besides, the city has a mobile library. The total number of members of these libraries is about 45,000. Out of these, about 200 to 300 members are not able to visit the libraries due to one reason or another. Bikram Rana, state liaison officer, NSS cell, UT, said the move would indeed be a service to senior citizens and disabled. Involvement of NSS volunteers, numbering more than 12,000 in Chandigarh, would definitely inculcate the feeling of community service in them, he added. Volunteers would also be assigned the duty of enrolling new members in their respective areas. All formalities will be completed at their houses. The forms, complete in all respects, will be handed over to the state librarian, who will make the enrolments and issue identity cards, Rana said. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/news/city/chandigarh/Now-books-at-the-do… http://snipurl.com/uf2c9 sent by --- Dr P Vyasamoorthy, 30 Gruhalakshmi Colony Secunderabad 500015 Ph 040-27846631 / 9490804278 http://www.google.com/profiles/vyasamoorthy. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

ALP will continue to build on the success of the programme over past years. >From 2010 onwards ALP projects will focus on professional priorities for the development of the library and information profession that are linked to IFLA's strategic objectives. The grassroots approach of ALP will continue, with local communities submitting project proposals. There will be a preference for projects based on IFLA's training packages and that build sustainability and capability in local library communities in developing countries or emerging economies around the world. The centrepiece of the new approach to ALP is the Building Strong Library Associations Programme (BSLA). This comprehensive programme offers a strategic and coordinated approach to capacity building and sustainability of library associations for the benefit of associations, libraries, and their communities.

Priority will be given to projects proposed by IFLA members (or by institutions/ organisations sponsored to join IFLA through a mentoring partnership with a library association) . All projects should have the support of an appropriate institution( s), association and the appropriate Regional Section or MLAS (Management of Library Associations Section) to implement the project. The types of projects that ALP supports include: . One-off workshops and training activities, delivering existing IFLA's policy-based training materials (for example, training materials developed by FAIFE) .

Moderated email forums
by naganarasimha shailaja 17 Feb '10

17 Feb '10

Sir, There are a lot of Library professionals who are busy in their work but would like to keep in touch with the on going developments in the field by looking at the discussions going on. I am sure most would not like to read the unedited messages which takes time to read and understand. Moderation is essential as it controls the discussions which some times goes beyond the subject field,Long discussion opposing or supporting a point which does not add anything to the subject. May be forum will be flooded by the product pushers and advertisers. keep this forum free from all this. There are many free discussion sites on the web which can be used by the enthusiasts. N.

Exploring Plagiarised Text
by Badan Barman 16 Feb '10

16 Feb '10

Respected forum members, Three days back i came across a blog site called Plagiarised (http://onlineclone.blogspot.com/) which is exploring papers with plagiarized text. I know by seeing the blog posts (if there name is there) professionals will be offended and some one like me (!) will fear of being explore in the days to come. But the real thing is that such type is initiative is really needed and we should join hand to achieve this kind of end. After all what is the importance of publishing a seminar or conference volume if maximum of its articles are derivatives of some kind of earlier publication (plagiarized text), and what is the importance of organizing that seminar itself. I personally not in an assumption, but we all know sufficient prove to justify our comments. So what should be done actually to avoid information pollution. Your comments are welcome at http://lislinks.ning.com/forum/topics/plagiarism-and-indian-lis/ Indian LIS Professionals: http://lislinks.ning.com/ Thanking you Yours faithfully (Sri Badan Barman) Academic Consultant, School of Library & Information Science, Krishna Kanta Handique State Open University, Housefed Complex, Last Gate, Dispur, Guwahati-781006, Assam Phone: 0361-2234964 / 2235971, Fax: 0361- 2235398.
