Podcasts of Abstracts of medical research papers on MP3!
by Subbiah Arunachalam 14 Jan '07

14 Jan '07

Friends: Pass this on to all medical researchers you serve or you know. I received it from Peter Suber. Arun Free online podcast abstracts JournalJunkie provides free online podcasts of the abstracts of articles in a growing number of medical journals. You can listen to them online or download them to your MP3 player. You can also "subscribe" for automatic downloads. When the journals provide their own podcasts (as Lancet, BMJ, NEJM, and JAMA do, for example), JournalJunkie simply adds links and the layer of subscription management. For journals that don't already provide podcasts, JournalJunkie makes its own. All the voices on its podcasts are human --and it has a standing call for more human readers. ___________________________________________________________ What kind of emailer are you?

Authoratory, a new service
by Subbiah Arunachalam 14 Jan '07

14 Jan '07

Friends: Please forward it to all your scientist friends who publish research papers (especially in biomedical sciences). If you are a publishing scientist and if you want to be visible and known to other researchers [surely you will!], then you must make your work available through open access archiving or publish them in open access journals. Such open access papers in the area of biomedical research are included in PubMed Central and now a new service called Authoratory mines data from PubMed Central to provide detailed information about authors. Subbiah Arunachalam ---------------------- >From Peter Suber's "Open Access News" Data-mining PubMed for author information Authoratory is a tool for data-mining information about authors with articles cited on PubMed Central. >From the site: The content of Authoratory is produced by analyzing large amounts of data from PubMed.... Authoratory data-mining techniques make it possible to discover new information about the authors - the information that is not apparent by reviewing one or two of their articles. For each selected author Authoratory gives the following: * the author status: primary or non-primary (primary author publishes articles independently, while non-primary always publishes articles with another author or a group of authors) * the list of most frequent coauthors (navigate the social network between the authors using their join publications) * professional interests (as indicated by the MeSH keywords and by the statistical analysis of abstracts and publication titles) * the author's affiliated institution and contact information * the change of all these parameters across time Authoratory keyword search is unique as well. It uses keyword frequencies to rank authors against each other. The more papers the particular author publishes for a specific keyword, the higher his rank is in the keyword listings. With Authoratory keyword search it 's possible to quickly find all authors with the expertise in a specific narrow topic.... ___________________________________________________________ New Yahoo!

ISBN is 13 Digits from 1 Jan 2007
by rajesh kusanur 13 Jan '07

13 Jan '07

Dear professionals The ISBN No Changed to 13 digit with effect from 1st Jan 2007 The main reason for changing the ISBN was to increase the numbering capacity of the ISBN system. As a result of electronic publishing and other changes in the publishing industry, the numbering capacity of the ISBN system is being consumed at a much faster rate than was originally anticipated when the ISBN system was designed for printed books in the late 1960's. In effect, the ISBN system would have run out of numbers in its current format. That wasn't going to happen tomorrow but it was a real concern for the future. We acted on a solution now, while the industry still had enough time to plan and budget for change, so that the ISBN system will remain viable far into the future. The solution, simply put, is that the length of the ISBN number changes from 10 digits to 13 digits, effective 1 January 2007. visit the website http://www.isbn.org/toolkit.html Rajesh K A Librarian FKCCI Bangalore Dear professionals The ISBN No Changed to 13 digit with effect from 1st Jan 2007 The main reason for changing the ISBN was to increase the numbering capacity of the ISBN system.

Scholarpedia - Free Peer Reviewed Encyclopedia Written by Scholars
by sandeep bhavsar 13 Jan '07

13 Jan '07

Respected All http://www.scholarpedia.org/ Scholarpedia is a free peer reviewed encyclopedia written by scholars from all around the world. Scholarpedia feels and looks like Wikipedia - the free encyclopedia that anyone can edit. Indeed, both are powered by the same program - MediaWiki. Both allow visitors to review and modify articles simply by clicking on the edit this article link. However, Scholarpedia differs from Wikipedia in some very important ways: a) Each article is written by an expert (invited or elected by the public), b) Each article is anonymously peer reviewed to ensure accurate and reliable information, c) Each article has a curator - typically its author -- who is responsible for its content, and d) Any modification of the article needs to be approved by the curator before it appears in the final, approved version. Herein also lies the greatest differences between Scholarpedia and traditional print media: while the initial authorship and review processes are similar to a print journal, articles in Scholarpedia are not frozen and outdated, but dynamic, subject to an ongoing process of improvement moderated by their curators. This allows Scholarpedia to be up-to-date, yet maintain the highest quality of content.

Open and participatory publishing model
by Subbiah Arunachalam 13 Jan '07

13 Jan '07

Friends: It may sound counterintutive, but the fact is books that are made available free on the web sell more copies in print! That is the experience of the National Academy of Sciences, USA, whose more than 3,000 reports are available on the web for free. And now, the University of Michigan is going to follow a similar policy. See the following entry from Peter Suber's blog. I would recommend that publishers of books in the government sector such as CSIR-NISCAIR, NBT, ICAR, Publications Division, Planning Commission, etc. adopt this model. Already this hybrid model - print for sale and the electronic version for free - is practised by the Indian Academy of Sciences and INSA for their journals. MedKnow, a private publisher based at Bombay, and the National Informatics Centre, New Delhi, bring out free electronic versions of journals owned by other publishers, mostly scientific societies in the area of biomedical research. MedKnow has shown that the hybrid model has led to increased revenue for the publishers, improved quality and a very large increase in the use made of their journals (as seen from download and citation statistics). But as far as I know very few Indian books are available for free on the web. Best wishes. Arun [Subbiah Arunachalam] --------------------- U. of Michigan Press, Library, Scholarly Publishing Office Launch Digital Studies Imprint, Web Site, Library Journal Academic Newswire, January 11, 2007. Excerpt: With its latest venture, the University of Michigan Press is exploring the cutting edge, both in terms of the content it publishes and how it publishes. Under a new collaborative program between the press, the library, and the Scholarly Publishing Office, the UM Press's new Digital Culture imprint will both sell books and offer the full-text of those books freely on its Digital Culture Books website.... As groundbreaking as some of the ideas, however, is the Press's decision to practice what many of its authors now preach, using the Digital Culture imprint to develop an "open and participatory publishing model" that seeks to "build a community" around its content. "Our goal is to give each project a robust online and print presence and to use the effort not only to introduce scholars to a range of publishing choices but also to collect data about how consumption habits vary on the basis of genre, age, discipline," MacKeen explained. "The data will help us to understand more about the economics of digital publishing, and will also, we think, offset any potential economic risks by developing the venture as a research opportunity." ... Pochoda stressed that there is "more than a business model at stake," however, noting that the collaborative nature of the Digital Culture imprint represents the press' chance "to support open access in principle and practice while still acknowledging the obligation to survive as a business operation." Nevertheless, he has reason to believe the press will sell some books. The National Academy Press, for example, offers its book content online, Pochoda notes, and its data suggests a corresponding jump in sales. ___________________________________________________________ Now you can have your favourite RSS headlines come to you with the all new Yahoo!

ISiM Special Lecture - 2, January 17, 2007, Mysore
by Angrosh 13 Jan '07

13 Jan '07

---- Announcement----- International School of Information Management University of Mysore Mysore ISIM Special Lecture - 2 'Web Content Mining for Automatic Integration of Web Search Sources by Dr. Vijay V. Raghavan Distinguished Professor of Computer Science The Center for Advanced Computer Studies University of Louisiana at Lafayette Lafayette, LA, USA Date & Time: January 17, 2007: 11:00 A.M. Venue: Bahadur Institute of Management Science Manasagangotri Mysore 570 006 You are cordially invited **************************************************************************** ************************************************* Abstract of the Talk: Web content mining is a broad and interesting research area that deals with extracting information/knowledge from Web pages. Metasearch engines operate by dispatching user queries to underlying Web search sources and subsequently extracting, merging, and displaying the returned results to the user. If there are only a few search sources, metasearch engines can have customized programs to interact with each of them. However, when there are hundreds of sources or more, especially when they are autonomous and heterogeneous and change their interfaces in an unpredictable way, highly automated techniques for Web content mining are needed. Moreover, information integration systems such as search engines, metasearch engines, and modern business intelligence solutions only access information available in a relatively small portion of the Web, referred to as the surface Web, that includes only static pages that are connected through hyperlinks. They do not access a significant portion of the Web known as the deep Web, which contains high quality content that is hidden behind search forms in structured databases. To leverage the immense value of the Web, information integration systems should have the ability to extract information contained in deep Web databases by utilizing suitable automatic Web content mining techniques. In this presentation, a few important Web content mining techniques applicable to automatic extraction of information from Web search sources, such as search engines and deep Web databases, are discussed. Biographical Sketch Prof. Raghavan joined the UL Lafayette- Center for Advanced Computer Studies in 1986 and, since 1993, he holds the title as Distinguished Professor in Computer Science. He specializes in designing effective information retrieval strategies aimed at improving the performance of a retrieval system through prior interactions with its users. The application domains include text, image and multimedia databases. In the realm of database systems research, he has developed approaches for database mining, managing semi-structured data, knowledge organization and reuse, and index selection. Prof. Raghavan has published over 170 peer-reviewed research papers many of which appeared in top-level conference proceedings, such as the ACM-SIGIR, ACM-SIGKDD, IEEE-ICDE, IEEE-ICDM, WWW, as well as many reputable journals such as ACM-TODS, ACM-TOIS, JASIST, IEEE-TSE, IEEE-TPAMI and IEEE-TKDE. Prof. Raghavans research contributions have had a significant impact as measured by the number of citations in scholar.google. Since 2001, Prof. Raghavan leads a research & development team, focused on technology transfer, at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. The team's focus is on research issues pertaining to the management large datasets, including integration of distributed, heterogeneous information sources. In this context, he has interfaced with several technology entrepreneurs and business leaders. The company involved in commercializing the Metasearch Engine Builder technology, Webscalers L.L.C., has received Phase I and II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grants from the NSF, for the amount of $600,000. **************************************************************************** ************************************************ For more details, please visit www.isim.ac.in/speciallecture

NET made mandatory for appointment of teachers

NET made mandatory for appointment of teachers [http://www.hindustantimes.com/news/181_1896945,0008.htm] Chetan Chauhan New Delhi, January 11, 2007 The National Eligibility Test (NET) may soon return as the basic eligibility criteria for appointment of teachers in the colleges and the universities. The University Grants Commission (UGC) in June 2006 had exempted NET examination as eligibility criteria for M Phil and Ph D degree holders for appointment, following an amendment to the UGC guidelines. The decision was based on the interim report of Balachandra Mungerkar committee report on NET examination. Now, the same committee after deliberations in three zones ---- west, south and north --- with academicians, is considering reversal of its earlier recommendation. If that is done, the NET examination will remain a mandatory condition for appointment. We dont want to dilute the quality of faculty in our educational institutions, a committee member explained. But, the NET examination may be restructured in a bid to increase the pool of eligible candidates for appointment in colleges and universities. The examination needs restructuring as in the coming years there will be a huge demand of university and colleges teachers in wake of implementation of 27 per cent reservation, the member said. UGC has notified shortage of teachers to the tune of 25-30 per cent in number of universities including Central Universities. On Thursday, Mungerkar, member Planning Commission, held deliberations in south campus of Delhi University with academicians from DU, Punjab University, Himachal Pradesh University and colleges from northern India. Majority of teachers were of the view that NET should continue to be the eligibility criteria, said DPS Verma, who recently retired from the Delhi School of Economics. The committee members were also apprised about the education mafia that has cropped up after the UGCs decision. Now, some universities are promising M Phil in four months. In Delhi alone, over 1,000 students have enrolled for M.Phil in a centre of one such university, he said. A committee member said that similar complaints have also been received from the other parts of the country. Suddenly, the enrolment in M Phil and Ph D courses has increased in universities with dubious record, he added. The committee is expected to submit its report to the government in March after consultation with the academicians from Central India in Bhopal. With best regards.

Open access essential to improve information exchange
by Subbiah Arunachalam 12 Jan '07

12 Jan '07

>From SciDev.net <http://www.scidev.net/EditorLetters/index.cfm?fuseaction=readeditorletter&i… Open access essential to improve information exchange * Author: Barbara Kirsop, Leslie Chan, Subbiah Arunachalam Affiliation: Electronic Publishing Trust for Development; University of Toronto & Bioline International; M. S. Swaminathan Research Foundation Date: 11 January 2007 We fully support Donat Agosti's contention that open access is the only way for publicly-funded research to be shared not only between the North and South, but also between developing countries (see 'Free access to research should not be limited'). It is also our view that UN-supported projects like the Online Access to Research in the Environment, Health Internetwork Access to Research Initiative and Access to Global Online Research in Agriculture initiatives only provide 'sticking plaster' solutions to information deprivation. Already, thousands of research articles are available without charge or restriction through nearly 800 registered repositories and approximately 2,500 open access journals worldwide. And the SPARC Open Access Newsletter shows that these numbers are accelerating fast. We do not understand why influential UN organisations such as the World Health Organization, the Food and Agriculture Organization and the UN Environment Programme whose remits are to support international health, agriculture and environmental programmes are not encouraging the open access movement. By concentrating on the above projects and working with commercial publishers, they hamper research into issues such as climate change, HIV/AIDS, malaria, tuberculosis and avian flu. Meeting these challenges requires strategies to increase information exchange. Why, then, are these agencies solely supporting programmes that have limited global beneficiaries? For example, countries like India with low gross domestic products are barred from collaboration. These agencies should also be working to promote open access to all publicly funded research information. As Agosti says, technological developments mean the future benefits of open access for scholarly communication are truly exciting. UNESCO is the only UN agency that seems to have understood the importance of open access having endorsed its use in the draft programme and budget for 2006-2007. We urge other UN agencies and key funding bodies around the world to follow suit.
