GOOD NEWS: Compensation to Dr. T B Rajashekar's Grief Family
by Babu Rajendra 23 Mar '07

23 Mar '07

At last, scientist's kin get relief http://www.deccanherald.com/deccanherald/mar232007/index212272007323.asp The Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal (MACT) awarded the family of Dr Tarikere Basappa Rajashekar, the well-known scientist from Bangalore, a compensation of Rs 32.78 lakh. It was a long wait for the family of Dr Tarikere Basappa Rajashekar, the well-known scientist from Bangalore who was killed in a road accident, but their patience paid off when the Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal (MACT) awarded them a compensation of Rs 32.78 lakh, in a judgment delivered on Thursday. Dr Rajashekhar who was the Associate Chairman of the National Centre for Science Information (NCSI) at the Indian Institute of Science, near Budihal cross, Nelamangala, near Bangalore, was killed when his Maruthi van was hit by a tractor on June 3, 2005. His wife, Parvathi Rajshekhar, son Amith and daughter Anusha moved the MACT seeking compensation. Their advocate Hanuma Reddy told the tribunal that the deceased was 51 years old and had 11 years of service left and that he was earning Rs 40,800 a month. Justice Talikote while ordering the insurance company to pay compensation of Rs 32.78 lakh with an interest of 6 per cent from the date the case was filed. The compensation claim was made about a year ago by the family and the entire amount - along with an interest of 6 per cent - works out to about Rs 36 lakh. Reddy said that a decision on whether to seek enhancement of compensation would be taken after going through the judgment and consulting the family members. Dr Rajashekhar, known as Raja to his friends, played a role in the creation of the nation's first computerised current awareness service in the early 1980s at NCSI. He set up India's first interoperable institutional open access archive. H Rajendra Babu Manager - Financial Research & Analysis Capco.

by sandeep bhavsar 22 Mar '07

22 Mar '07

Respected All www.indexdata.com/opencontent Index Data has launched a new service to help libraries expose open content resources to their users. The initial phase of this service offers ebooks, open access digital repositories, encyclopedia articles, and human-reviewed Internet resources. This service is being offered without charge. It is powered by Zebra and Metaproxy, two open source software programs developed by Index Data. Using standard search protocols such as SRU and Z39.50, libraries will be able to make open content part of their own information portals, federated search systems, catalogs etc. Additional background information and connection instructions are available at www.indexdata.com/opencontent. The initial open content being offered consists of the following resources: Ebooks from the Open Content Alliance Ebooks from Project Gutenberg Internet resources selected for review by the Open Directory Project OAI-compliant resources, the metadata of which has been harvested by OAIster Wikipedia articles "We will continue to seek out new resources that we can enable for access in this way, and we welcome suggestions and participation from others," noted Hammer. "We encourage all of you to let us know how you are using these services. And if you have ideas for new resources or can help us with metadata harvesting or assist this initiative in any other way, we welcome your involvement." As an example of the benefits of being able to metasearch open resources, we are making freely available a pre-release demo version of Index Data's MasterKey search tool that has these open content resources as targets Best Regards Sandeep Bhavsar Librarian Dr.V.N.Bedekar Institute of Management Studies Thane(W). 400601 @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ email : sandeep.bhavsar(a)gmail.com Mob : 09870484626 @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ --------------------------------- Inbox full of unwanted email?

Re: [LIS-Forum] VACANCY ANNOUNCEMENT (Max Mueller Bhavan)
by Seth, Renu 20 Mar '07

20 Mar '07

Dear Aprajita, You have a valid question but our requirements are a bit different, hence we have to choose between someone knowing German or having the subject qualifications. The Reference Librarian working in Max Mueller Bhavan will be mainly responsible for providing information about Germany, its culture etc. and to be able to do that, it is very important that he/she has German language expertise and knows Germany reasonably well. The reason being, most of the German reference books, websites as well as other sources of information, which such a person would use are in German language. A library science professional will need min. two to three years time to pick up the kind of language expertise we need for this job and given a choice, we would not want to wait that long to start providing effective information services. An ideal combination for us would be a librarian knowing German Language but unfortunately, so far we have not been successful in finding such a person. Library Science professionals are most welcome to apply (this was also the reason for posting it on LIS-Forum) but as written in the job-posting, first preference would be given to candidates well versed with German Language and Culture.
