Please find the reply from sri Haravuji for the the solution sought and doubts expressed by Dr.Harinarayan who was a *volunteer participant* at the workshop organised by me from 24-26 March 09 at the Department of LIS,UOM,Mysore ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Jai Haravu <haravu(a)newgenlib.com> Date: Apr 6, 2009 9:29 PM Subject: Re: [LIS-Forum] NewGenLib on Windows Vista To: khaiser nikam <khaiser.nikam(a)gmail.com> Cc: "N.S. Harinarayana" <ns.harinarayana(a)gmail.com>, Meher Siddartha E < emsiddartha(a)gmail.com> Dear Dr Nikam The problem was explained quite clearly to Dr harinarayana. To repeat, PostgreSQL-8.3 which is required for Vista is supposed to have integrated the contributed module tsearch2.sql. However, there are some issues in the manner the integration has been done. NewGenLib's database requires the functionality of the tsearch2.sql as was provided in the earlier versions of PostgreSQL. As a result of the differnce, there is a problem with the Vista installation. Our developers have been appraised of the issues and they will no doubt attend to this. Allow me to thank Dr Harinarayana for appreciating the workshop at DLIS. Best regards.

UGC mandatory qualification
by rajendra kumar panda 04 Apr '09

04 Apr '09

Dear listed members, Adding to recent discussion of UGC qualification for the post of Asstt. Librarian in college and university or similar grades in non academic library, UGC NET/SET qualification should be mandatory (according my opinion) to maintain the quality of service and job, NET/SET exams are higher standard in quality, there is no question of partiality and petting towards candidates, the met question papers are set by chosen top most LIS people and evaluation method is similar too. Besides one’s subject knowledge candidates must have general ability to think scientifically and logically to respond an environment judiciously and rationally. The functional credibility of some of Indian universities is well known to most of us. It is not much difficult to obtain M.Phill / Ph.D degree. In this process always there is nepotism and favoritism prevails. On other side, there are plenty of evidence people with having first class careers could not qualify LIS all India written tests conducted by various govt. bodies and most of the Govt appointed LIS professionals working in various top level positions are directly appointed on the basis of career and qualification marks. Since last two decades, there are hearing of dithering between UGC NET/SET relax and mandatory. Knowledge Commission of India is also suggested in favour of essentiality. I think every LIS people should prove their credentials by qualifying highest body exams. thanks -- R.K.Panda Librarian Kendriya Vidyalaya -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Scrutinizing LIS-Forum posting
by Baban Chavan 03 Apr '09

03 Apr '09

Respected, Dr.Gaudar I Fully agree with you sentiments. It is realy a troublsome job for moderator to go through the posting by members if it is not relevent & therefore every professional should always take care while posting their messages, as the professionals not from india but also from abroad reads the messages. However ,some of our people having a good contents but not written in good English or badly written shold not be ignored as we are non English people and even some professionals are not having English as their medium of instructions upto M.L.I.S. stage so they are poor in English.Therefore these type of messages must be cosidered with moderators editing and approval as there may be regional impact due to regional languges.

Scrutinizing LISFORUM postings
by I.R.N.Goudar 03 Apr '09

03 Apr '09

Dear Professional friends, Many a times we waste our time in reading very badly written as well as frivolous postings in the LIS-FORUM. We should not forget that these messages are read by more than 2000 professionals including academicians not only in India but abroad as well. I do understand that it would be difficult to read all the postings by the moderator as it is a voluntary service and not a paid job to spare lot of office timings for this work. However we members of this forum need to take care of sending only professionally useful messages of good quality. I would like to quote one of the recent posting on 31-3-2009 reporting about recently held conference at NAL on "Scholorly Communication in India in the Age of the Commons (Open Access)". While any one can give their opinion about any event, the report should be posted only by the concerned like Organizing Secretary / Convener, etc. The least one has to do is to read the postings at least once before sending it to the LIS-FORUM. This report contained sentences like: "...... the conference begin with "WORM" welcome by...." ".....Arunachalaiah was brief the significance of...." ".....Prof. Mukunda was also inaugurated...." ".....Dy Head, ICAST was "comparer...." "....He has argues a scientific judgement..." While I had appreciate the enthusiasm of the concened professional, I request him and others as well to take care of correctness before submitting postings to the extent possible atleast it should not give different altogether. In fact almost two years back I had posted an item on LIS-FORUM about DOs and Don'ts LIS-FORUM postings. I remember one or two now: 1. If any professional gets an award or achieves something definitely it is an item to be announced by some body who comes to know about the achievement. The first announcement is most welcome. However further postings on the same news congratulating one after the other and the recipient reciprocating the same for every mail should be avoided. One can as well congratulate the individual to his email once the posting is already done through LIS-FORUM. 2. ILL requests are most welcome on LIS-FORUM. Further postings on the same item like thanking through Lis-Forum are unnecessary. 3. It is interesting when some body raises an issue concerned to profession/service and others react. I appreciate the recent postings with issues and topics like SOUL, NEWGENLIB. Any number of reactions are welcome on such topics. 4. Although it takes away some time of the moderator, I strongly feel that he should have a look at the content of the posting. Either he can correct himself before releasing the posting or return it back to the sender if too many mistakes are found, unless it is very urgent message. I invite Professionals to add to what I suggested. With regards, Goudar -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dr. I.R.N.

ISiM Research Colloquium (1), 3rd April, 2009 : 3:00 p.m.
by Angrosh 02 Apr '09

02 Apr '09

ISiM Research Colloquium (1) Date: April 3, 2009 Time: 3:00 p.m. onwards Presentation (1) Title of the talk: On the Nature of Co-citations: Interpretation and Analysis Speaker: Mandar R. Mutalikdesai, Research Scholar, IIITB Abstract: Co-citation has long been used as a measure of topical similarity between objects in various data sets. However, there are some characteristic differences in the way co-citations are formed in different data sets. We summarize these differences with respect to scientific literature, WWW pages and Wikipedia pages. Based on this, we propose three interpretations of co-citations: (1) Endorsements of citations, (2) Knowledge aggregation activities, and (3) Measures of conditional topical relevance. We shall briefly discuss all three interpretations. However, this talk will mainly elaborate on the first interpretation: Co-citations as endorsements of citations. Such an interpretation gives a new measure that can be used by focused or topical crawlers/surfers to surf the Web and digital libraries such as CiteSeer in a fashion that is most pertinent to the topic of interest. We also find some interesting patterns of "citation endorsements" on the Web and on CiteSeer, which we will discuss in this talk. Finally, we propose a topical ranking scheme based on citation endorsements, which can be used as a fine tuning measure to existing techniques for relevance ranking in citation graphs. Presentation (2) Title: Mining Semantics from Lexical Cooccurrence Data Speaker: Aditya Ramana Rachakonda, Research Scholar, IIITB Abstract: Lexical cooccurrence in documents is not uniformly random. The statistics inferred from the term cooccurrence data enable us to probabilistically model the dependencies between terms. It has been argued in cognitive sciences that these dependencies closely resemble the way semantic memory is organised in human beings. This work attempts to model some commonly used semantic associations as probabilistic measures to enable mining of semantics automatically from text corpora. The semantic associations being modelled are synonyms like car and automobile, semantic siblings like Sachin Tendulkar and Rahul Dravid and topical anchors like Disney for Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and Pluto. Of these, some results on topical anchors will be presented in more detail. You are cordially invited.

Re: [LIS-Forum] Data Conversion form Newgenlib to koha

Dear Mr. Soni Migration of data from Koha to NewGenLib or from NewGenLib to Koha is quite simple because both of these FLOSS based LMSs are quite clear and transparent in implementing MARC 21 and ISO-2709 (unlike some commercial LMSs in India where data transformation facilities are poor, non-standard and sometimes blocked intentionally for obvious commercial reasons). However if u feel you need help then there are a few service providers in India like OSSLabs (http://www.osslabs.biz/) OpenLX etc. Dr. Parthasarathi Mukhopadhyay Department of Library and Information Science University of Burdwan, Burdwan, Rajbati - 713104, WB ----- Original Message ----- From: "Navin Soni" To: koha-devel(a)lists.koha.org, lis-forum(a)ncsi.iisc.ernet.in Subject: [LIS-Forum] Data Conversion form Newgenlib to koha Date: Wed, 1 Apr 2009 14:07:14 +0530 Dear Professionals, Goog Mrng.. We are from INMAS, DRDO, Delhi. Presently we are using newgenlib (OSS), we had tried a lot to give AMC to Newgenlib developers (M/s Verus Solutions) at normal rates but they did not responded positive.

As this software constantly requires technical support which we are not able to find out who may take AMC of this Newgenlib software. Now may I request on this forum who can guide us how to overcome this problem of AMC. In alternative, we are planning to either switch over to KOHA and migrate our records into KOHA 2.2.9 ver. or wait for any agency who can undertake the AMC of Newgenlib.
