National Workshop on Application of GenIsisWeb at IIITM-K
by Sainul Abideen P 27 Sep '07

27 Sep '07

Dear Collegues, Due to emergence of tools like GenISISWeb, the utility of CDS/ISIS (or its different versions like winISIS) is gaining momentum again in the Digital Library environmet. Using GenISISweb it is possible to create web based Digital Libraries keeping CDS/ISIS as back-end database, to create WebOPAC of library collection which is in CDS/ISIS, to create online Journals gateways for electronic (even for print) journals, or any other web based information services with a much userfriendly and effective way. Based on the practical application of GenISISWeb for past few years in creating Multimedia Digital Library, Web OPACs, e-journals Gateways, Software Library, online newspaper portal etc we are organising a "National Workshop on Application of GenISISWeb for Web Based Information Services' at IIITM-K Trivandrum Kerala during 29-31 October 2007 as per the details given below. [website http://www.iiitmk.ac.in/genisisweb] For more details and examples of GenISISWeb implementation visit IIITMK Library Blog: http://iiitmklibrary.blogspot.com/2007/09/examples-of-genisisweb-based-serv… We request you to kindly participate in this workshop, and circulate this message among your Professional friends and colleagues with best regards, Sainul Abideen P Workshop Coordinator & Librarian IIITM-K, Trivandrum ================================= National Workshop On Application of GenisisWeb for Web Based Information Services Organised by Digital Library & Information Services Indian Institute of Information Technology & Management Kerala (IIITM-K), Thiruvananthapuram website http://www.iiitmk.ac.in/genisisweb Date: 29-31 October 2007 9.30 AM - 4.30 PM Venue: IIITM-K, Technopark, Thiruvananthapuram 695581 About the Workshop Information and Communication Technology has made profound impact on the society in general and in the field of library and information science in particular. Availability of modern ICT infrastructure forced the libraries to offer many of their services over network, especially over the Web. Emergence of e-only resources, requirement from users for e-resources, and availability of suitable communication mechanisms etc have also compelled to provide electronic information services. In order to provide such speedy services, libraries need to equip themselves with different tools, which enable web-based information dissemination. Provision of Web based information service is costly and some times becomes unaffordable to many Libraries. Alternatively they may depend on free/low cost solutions for web based information services. The workshop will orient and train the participants in establishing and managing such services. The practice sessions will be based on GenIsisWeb. GenISIS is a state-of-the-art package used to create Web interface for CDS/ISIS databases (or its different versions) for developing applications like Digital Libraries, Web based catalogues (WebOPAC), e-Journal Gateways etc. GenISIS is based on the Web CDS/ISIS interface WWWISIS by BIREME. This Workshop focuses on giving a practical orientation to GenISISWeb for creating web based Information Service. Participation is expected from Librarians, LIS Students, Academia and Industry. For more details and examples of GenISISWeb implementation visit : http://iiitmklibrary.blogspot.com/2007/09/examples-of-genisisweb-based-serv… Objectives To give practical orientation to: Ø Develop bibliographic database using WinISIS Ø To publish WinISIS Database over the Web Ø To develop Digital Libraries using GenISISWeb Ø To develop Web OPAC using GenISISWeb. Ø To develop e-Journals Gateway using GenISISWeb Ø To learn data exchange using IsisASCII. Ø To master development and maintenance of Integrated Online Library Information Systems. Participants are expected to be proficient in using GenISISWeb after this workshop. Registration Fee: Rupees 1500/= Only Participants from Industry Rs. 2000/= Only. Payments to be made via DD in favour of Director, IIITM-K payable at Canara Bank , Kazhakkoottam Branch. Workshop fee covers Lectures, Course material in CD, Working Lunch and Tea. No TA/DA will be given to the participants. Participants are requested to make their own arrangements for Accommodation and Travel.

Dear colleagues, The Hollywood Librarian: A Look at Librarians through Film will be the first full-length documentary film to focus on the work and lives of librarians. The promo of the flim says: THEY HAVE MORE CARDHOLDERS THAN VISA AND MORE OUTLETS THAN McDONALD'S AND MOVE MORE OBJECTS THAN FEDEX MEET YOUR LIBRARIAN The director ANN M. SEIDL (also Writer of the screenplay) has a master degree of library and information services from the University of Denver. She is a library consultant and the owner and principal manager of a library consulting business which provides library research and GIS analysis products to public libraries and systems. The Hollywood Librarian is a unique and charming blend of film clips, humor and critical analysis of the popular image of librarians. It will create a new-found empathy for the profession by revealing the diversity of individual librarians and the importance of what they do. This documentary will increase the public's awareness of the complex and democratic nature of librarianship in the age of technology, and be a step toward librarians redefining themselves as not only more than a stereotype, but also as a cultural imperative.

Press Clipping services
by Padmanabha Vyasamoorthy 21 Sep '07

21 Sep '07

Many librarians offer press clipping services. Do they know the value of their services? Can the put a price tag? (and recover the costs involved?). Following message gives an idea how much BMC (Bombay Municipal Corporation) is spending on acquiring information through press clippings. Vyasamoorthy ================= 16. bmc does read newspaper articles Posted by: "karmayog.org" info(a)karmayog.org Date: Thu Sep 20, 2007 10:06 pm ((PDT)) It seems that BMC gives a yearly contract of Rs. 1.5 crores to read and cut and file articles from newspapers. One would like to know how the files are circulated internally. ================= -- Dr P Vyasamoorthy, Society for Serving Seniors 30, Gruhalakshmi Colony, Secunderabad 500015 Phone 27846631 / 94908 04278 http://societyforservingseniors.satyamcsr.org -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
