So a person must have reading habits in this information age. Now the question is how to develop them? A single person or organisation cannot develop reading habits in modern multimedia society where new media is distracting the reader from reading materials. Parents , teachers and librarians have to play a great role in creating a reading society. As a librarian you can attract users towards reading by displaying book jackets of new books/the new issues of periodicals, providing SDI services, circulating contents of new issues, motivating the authorities for celeberating World Book Day, Library Week, Librarian's Day, and organising the Book exhibitions. Book talk, Quiz competitions and the like. It is matter of regret that in academic institutions of India emphasis is given on passing the examinations, not on promoting the lifelong reading habits. That is why our biggest population struggles in every field for survival and leading in the none as compared to other developing countries. We must know that "the nations who reads is a nation who leads". Fayaz Lone Documentation Officer CCAS, University of Kashmir. --------------------------------- Best Jokes, Best Friends, Best Food.

Reading habits of Students
by Chitra Prakash Rao 01 May '08

01 May '08

Hi ; To best showcase your Jpurnals and to promote reading habits in users one must always go out to them and not expect them to come to you. first suggestion would be to find out what chapters of books or course is taught and display those books ot make detailed chapter wise bibliographies and put it up on the Library Notice boards.. Second go out to the teachers and students and interact with them ask if they have got all the material they want to study. Have them see the recent magazines and books. Slowly and steadily introduce them to what you have in Library Start a Book Awareness Club where the top ten books recieved in that week/ month are talked about or written. Ensure magazine articles are displayed for all to see. If they do not come to the Library Put it in a place they can see. For BE courses your interaction with the teachers and showing them what is availbale will improve the reading habits of students ie. awareness of what is availble in their Libraries. As they depend on teachers references a lot. Thirdly we all have to make the maximum effort to break this barrier in the initial stages only later on word of mounth from batch to batch will automatically advertise your collection. Last but not the least we have to accept that they have made their own arrangements either from Friends and Book-stores and have organised their reading materials themselves. In which case getting a vendor to sell at your campus at the beginning of the year with more discounts as books will be purchased in Bulk will endear you to them and they will approach you in future if they want any urther information..Try always to be among them and not away where their needs are concerned. best wishes and welcome to the real word of Library management Chitra Rao Library and Information officer NITIE Mumbai -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Re: [LIS-Forum] Promoting reading habits
by T. Shahab 29 Apr '08

"Librarians work for the mankind"? Forgive me to sound churlish. This textbook comments appear me like rubbing salt to every practicing librarians' open wound. Librarains in the real work situation in most of the institutions in our counrty-whether public or private-have no larger profile than submitting with all docility at their command to the directives or sweet wishes or whims of the governing committee/Principal/Professors/Directors/Vice-Chancellors, etc. I haven't come across any Public or Academic librarian who feel empowered enough to acquire books with a view to cultivating best "Value system", without being in perpetual trepidation of having her/his choices being qestioned. Librarians in our contry may become effective instrunments in the development of an Information literate society provided the significance of libraries as an agent of social transformation is understood by those who are holding the reins of authority and power. Moreover, while seized with the issue of "Information literacy" we should also think of the usefulness of the long forgotten techniques used in library extension services. The true literacy is not really course book based. It is to banish the darknness of ignorance from our minds and to enable us to acuire various forms of competencies that should empower us to be engaged in the contemporary society beneficially for all. Regards. TANWIR -----Original Message----- From: lis-forum-bounces(a)ncsi.iisc.ernet.in [mailto:lis-forum-bounces@ncsi.iisc.ernet.in] On Behalf Of Sukhdev Singh Sent: Friday, April 25, 2008 1:50 PM To: Smita Chandra; lis-forum(a)ncsi.iisc.ernet.in Cc: binu david Subject: Re: [LIS-Forum] Promoting reading habits Are we just teachers? Or our responsibility goes beyond that? I thought, it just the teachers who "force" their "pupils" to learn whatever is prescribed in their syllabus. A teacher transfers a domain of knowledge to its pupils. S/he deals with one generation (25 years equals to a generation). Fine, I have no objection to this. It is his/her duty. The roles are well defined; the person standing in the class knows the best. Now there is something called social "value system". Conflicts between generations start from here. Call it "Generation Gap" if you like. Here the older generation always feel that their value system is better and more right than that of younger generation. The young feels just the opposite. I am with the younger generation. I feel the younger generation is always right because they know better. After all they are born after 25 years. During these 25 years, the sum total of mankind knowledge gets added up (Quiz - How many times?). And Technology? How much does it change in 25 years? While a teacher (not a researcher) merely transfers the existing known domain knowledge to its pupil, a librarian has more challenging task - s/he builds the knowledge base. S/he acquires the best knowledge produced and recorded; organizes; makes it findable and usable. Librarian does not work for a Generation. Librarian does not work for Money. Librarian does not subscribe to any particular Ideology. Librarian does not work for a particular Society or Community. Librarian WORKS FOR MANKIND. Libraries collectively form the MEMORY of MANKIND. Now coming to philosophy of Library Science. I wonder whether we all have grown beyond Ranganathan. More of us are talking in terms of THIRD LAW (Every Book Its Reader - the promotional aspect) while ignoring the SECOND LAW (Every Reader his/her Book - the collection development aspect). As already hinted in my previous mail, priority should be according to the order of the Laws. For me the FIRST LAW (Books are for use) comes first, so I talk of Open Access. Collection development comes second and promotion comes third. I am very happy that few of us actually pinpointed the root cause. It is the strict adhere to "numerical" and "magic numbers" prescribed by accrediting bodies. Recently, I was invited at CMC Vellore < http://www.cochrane-sacn.org/symposium2008/workshops.html > to chair a session. There I got an opportunity to look to one poster. It was co-authored by Dr. R. R. Pathak, Depratment of Pharmacology, C U Shah Medical College, Surendranagar GUJARAT - 363001 and Sheikh, Rizwan, the Senior Librarian there. I talked at length to Dr. Pathak during his poster presentation. His views are important to me. He is a PG Student of Pharmacology and a Library User. I requested a copy of the poster, which he sent me through email later (I can forward the same to whoever desires, or better if Rizwan is here and listening, I request him to make his presentation in lis-forum) What does this poster say? It bursts the MCI's Library Norms and Magic Numbers. He shows how a private college can fill up "magic numbers" with books and journals that students would never need. He goes ahead with high pitch, which I don't like to circulate over here. So you cannot have Second Law violated and then expect Librarian to operate the Third Law. So Build Your Collection to the Needs of your User. Don't impose your own Value - System on the User. User Knows the Best. --Sukhdev Singh, NIC.

Promoting Reading Habits
by Rajan 28 Apr '08

28 Apr '08

Dear Mr Singh, It is true that you should build the collection to the needs of the user and should not impose your value system to him. The user knows the best, most of the time, but not always. When you speak about the user, please don't think of the students or faculty now there in the academic rolls of the institution alone. Think of the tenure of a library book and all possible users which may run into a few generations. So, in many cases you need to foresee creatively and arrive at a conclusion about the real needs of the users of the book rather than what the users speak when you decide to purchase. That means, don't avoid inclusion of a book which you visualize to be of useful later and cannot be obtained then eventhough you dont have a user right now. As well, when you think of the user, you should think of the diverse kinds of users during the entire tenure of the book too. Regards, K Rajasekharan Librarian, Kerala Institute of Local Administration(KILA) Mulagunnathukavu, Thrissur From: "Sukhdev Singh" <esukhdev(a)gmail.com> So you cannot have Second Law violated and then expect Librarian to operate the Third Law. So Build Your Collection to the Needs of your User. Don't impose your own Value - System on the User. User Knows the Best. --Sukhdev Singh, NIC. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Promoting reading habits & collection sharing
by gayathri sen 28 Apr '08

28 Apr '08

Dear Chudamani, Most of the engineering colleges are already members of INDEST and getting the foreign journal access at a reduced rate. As far as sharing of books is concerned DELNET is doing a wonderful job by sending books through courier in the fastest possible time for all its member libraries. I get many books which are out of print or out of stock for reference through DELNET and my users are overjoyed by this. It is only when we provoide what the user wants, in the shortest possible time, somehow or the other, their faith in the library system increases, and you can see you readership and usage increasing by leaps & bounds. Provoide what they want, of course keeping the quality collections in mind. You can see the result yourself. When you cannot get what they want communicate the reason, either by mail or over phone to explain. Regards, Gayathri Sen PESIT --------------------------------- Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo! Mobile.

ISiM Special Lecture 3 - April 28,2008
by Shalini Urs 26 Apr '08

26 Apr '08

ISiM Special Lecture Series - 3 "Machine Learning: New Paradigms and Perspectives" By Prof. Sargur Srihari SUNY Distinguished Professor Department of Computer Science and Engineering Founding Director CEDAR (Centre of Excellence for Document Analysis and Recognition) University at Buffalo, State University of New York, USA All are cordially invited Date & Time: April 28, 2008: 3.30 PM Venue: Vidyanidhi Hall Mysore University Library Manasagangotri Mysore ------------ Abstract of the Talk: Machine learning methods are a systematic approach to designing high performance information processing systems. The methods of machine learning have been around for nearly fifty years, yet there is now a revolution ongoing with methods such as the fully Bayesian approach and conditional random fields. There is also a move to discover the broad underpinnings of a unified theory, to describe a range of seemingly ad-hoc methods, by using graphical models and the discriminative-generative taxonomy. The talk will begin with a tutorial approach to the central concepts underlying newer methods and then describe some results in the context of MINDS (Machine learning, Information retrieval, Natural language processing, Document analysis/ recognition and Speech recognition). Speaker's Bio Sargur (Hari) Srihari is a SUNY Distinguished Professor at the State University of New York at Buffalo. He teaches and does research in pattern recognition and machine learning in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering. He served as Principal Investigator on a project that led to the first large scale deployment of automatic reading of handwritten postal systems in the world. He is presently serving on a U.S. National Academy of Sciences committee on "Identifying the Needs of the Forensic Community". An author of over 300 papers he has received several honours including Fellow of IEEE, Fellow of the International Association for Pattern Recognition (IAPR) and Distinguished Alumnus of the Ohio State University College of Engineering. Srihari received a B.E. from the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore and a PhD from the Ohio State University, Columbus. ------ Dr. Shalini Urs Executive Director and Professor International School of Information Management University of Mysore Manasagangotri Mysore - 570006 Phone : + 91 821 2514699 Fax : + 91 821 2519209 ISiM - new age school for the knowledge economy www.isim.ac.in -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
