Eligibility for major and mibir research projects funded by UGC
by Ashwini Prabhu 01 Dec '05

01 Dec '05

Dear members, I would like to know the eligibility norms for UGC funded major and minor reseach projects for LIS professinals in academic settings. One of my friend's application for minor reasearch project has been rejected by the UGC on the pretext that she is a librarian in a college (and not a Library Science teacher probably). When the appointment criteria (Qualifications, NET/SET), Payscale, Career advancement scheme, etc is similar between college librarians and LIS teachers, is it fair that librarians be denied research oppurtunities. Seeking more information on the issue.

The Rise of Library 2.0
by Saiful Amin 30 Nov '05

30 Nov '05

Do libraries matter? "The question of relevance is perhaps the biggest challenge facing libraries today. While there's no doubt that people value traditional library services, does the rise of Internet services, such as Google, Amazon and their like, present a huge challenge? "Let's face it. These internet-based services offer high quality, easy to use, methods for finding information. A person could easily be forgiven for believing that ordering a book from the comfort of their own home, and having it delivered straight to their door within just a few days, is less hassle than a trip to the local library. "With information now so freely available, particularly through the Internet, do libraries really matter? " ... the answer is a resounding yes. Libraries provide unique value. We believe that a list of links in a search engine, while useful, does not have the same value as the knowledge that a library can provide. "Reports of the library's demise have been greatly exaggerated then. Yet, the staggering success of sites such as Amazon and Google has shown that, to meet the expectations of the modern world, libraries do have to change quite dramatically."

Missing books
by mmslib＠udct.org 30 Nov '05

30 Nov '05

Some of the measures we take in our library are outlined below 1. To do complete stock checking of a huge library (above 50,000 volumes) is not an easy task. In this connection please find a copy of Good offices committee rules which sounds appropriate.We are in the process of acquiring Autodata capturing device to do stock verification without closing the library as far as possible. 2. Loss of books by students/faculty needs to be replaced by the person who is instrumental for such an act. These can not be written off. Remarks must be made in the accession register as to who has lost and what number is assigned for the replaced book. 3. The library staff are considered responsible for collection,use, preservation, protection & maintenance of books .The librarian is expected to report to the library committee/director and find out ways and means to plug in abuse of literature, theft etc. and motivate the users in correct use of books. Alert staff is an asset to the library.However, it is unethical to penalise the library staff for the mischief played by the users of the library. Our library for instance, is open to readers from 8.30 A.M. to 8.30 P.M. and staff work on shifts.It is of utmost importance to give more attention to security measures & ensure that the losses are minimal. 4. Long overdue books , fine etc. are features in every library. For this we give regular reminders and try to recover the books before the person leaves. We also see that soon after verification period the users are stopped from taking further books until they clear their dues. In spite of deterrents we still have very few cases for which we find a solution at the library committee meeting . 5. So far we have not weeded out books of value, which are exhaustively used. Books like directories, yearbooks,annual reports which have temporary value are being listed and approval for withdrawal is sought from the senate. Being an Academic/Research library generally students have their own textbooks and multiple copies of books of temporary value are therefore not purchased.We have formulated ordinance for withdrawal of books and is yet to get a nod from the new senate 6. It is necessary to avoid obtaining books of unused nature. Healthy collection development policies like purchasing / accepting and accessioning books of value, analysing gift books before adding to library collection, would reduce this problem. Books that are old & need to be preserved ,but are not in a position to withstand the environmental conditions do exist in our library. They are being separated and we are converting them into CD-ROM. This process has to be done judiciously taking into consideration the copyright rules. Best wishes, Shantha Venkatesan.

NET in LIS
by Saji S. Nair 30 Nov '05

30 Nov '05

Dear All, At the outset I would like to comment on Mr. Sudhir's observations (see the extract at the end of this mail) in this thread at the Forum. 1.The topic for discussion presented is a general trend in India and isn't an issue only to a State or at an Institutional level. There may be exceptions in this context. 2. But it is a fact that there is a decrease in the number of candidates clearing the exam for the last three or four years, even with a steady increase of NET aspirants. In the past there certainly had the candidates qualifying 2 or 3 times. But things changed now. 3.There is no question of diluting NET exam for getting more aspirants. Since LIS education is widespread in India, the profession demands more competent young professionals having NET. In other words we can't wind up LIS courses for 'concentrating' LIS manpower/UGC NET qualifiers. As pointed out by Mr. Prakash (Inflibnet), it is the right time to present our views before the committee constituted to review NET. LIS teachers may be the competent authority to embark, along with professional bodies at the national/regional levels. There must be consensus distilled out from various Email Discussion Fora on things revolving around NET in LIS. Among other things, the following may be the matters of concern. (i). Quality of LIS education in India: (ii). Revision of syllabi: Every year UGC has a same set of syllabus (may be years old) even with the some obsolete concepts. (iii). Conduct of exams: I think UGC could think for exams three times a year. Question booklets should be retained by the candidates (at least for the first paper) and answer keys for various versions can be published. Similarly the questions for other two papers should be made available at the site. (iv). Declaration of results: The results of NET exam at one session should be published before the advertisement for the next session OR at least before the last date of submission of applications. (v). Consider the right of candidates: -UGC is liable to convey the cut off marks, especially for the first two papers and if there is diferent cut offs for different subjects, that thing also. -If all the papers are valued, then the marks earned in each paper etc. -In cases, where candidates couldn't qualify, then marks obtained at the first/second or both papers should be informed. -Statistics regarding the total number of candidates appeared and cleared the test in each subject, including university wise statistics. Bye for now Saji S. Nair Trivandrum Kerala Date: Mon, 28 Nov 2005 14:44:30 +0530 From: sudhier k g pillai <kgsudhier(a)gmail.com> [ Add to Address Book | Block Address | Report as Spam ] To: <lis-forum(a)ncsi.iisc.ernet.in> Subject: [LIS-Forum] UGC-NET syllabi revision ( Sudhier.K.G.Pillai) Sir, In recent years there is a sharp decline in the number of students qualifying UGC-NET exam from univty. of Kerala. At the same time the numbers are high in Calict and MG univties.It does'nt mean that the quality of students of our univty is not upto the mark! Many have qualified NET earlier, ie from 1991 onwards. I have qualified it in two different times in Lb. & Inf. Science itself! Recently in an interview for the post of I st gade Libraraian at the Kottayam based college, there were more than 15 candidates applied. There are enough number of NET qualified library professionals are available in the state. Of course, there should be periodic changes in the exam pattern, and in the syllabi .It is ecouraging that UGC itself has constituted a committee in this regards. As professionals, we do'nt try to dilute the NET Exam for getting more aspirants! regards sudhier kg _______________________________________________ Join Excite! - http://www.excite.com The most personalized portal on the Web!

Publisher: No thanks, GOOGLE..
by Poornima Narayan 30 Nov '05

30 Nov '05

Upset over Google's plan to scan books from university library shelves, publisher Rowman & Littlefield has pulled out of the Google print for Publishers program and refused a meeting with Google. In an email exchange, Jed Lyons, president and CEO of the Rowman & Littlefield Publishing group, Inc., and the National book Network, called the Google Print Library project "an outrageous rip-off". Rowman & Littlefield is the only publisher to withdraw from the publisher program because of the Library Project. So, why object to the permission based program, Google asked. Lyons said the library project is"flagrantly violating U.S. copyright law", so his company won't participate in any Google program "until you stop this illegal activity". Lyons pointed to the difficulties the plan has caused for one prolific author, Bard College theologian Jacob Neusner, who has authored or edited as many as 900 volumes, cited a burdensome "opt-out" process, in which Google asked him to check for proper rights clearance, which is typically the responsibility of the party doing the copying or its agent. Google says many publishers are pleased with library scanning as it allows them to upgrade library-scanned books into Google Print for Publishers without having to locate the book or ship it- Andrew Albanese Source: Library Journal, Nov 1, 2005 -- Poornima Narayana Contact: 080-25086083 (O) Dy Head, ICAST 080-26682781 (R) N.A.L E mail: poornima(a)css.nal.res.in Airport Road prn_1_in(a)yahoo.com Bangalore 560 017 Fax: 080-25268072

Digitizing what researchers need
by Mailing List Manager 28 Nov '05

28 Nov '05

Date: Sat, 26 Nov 2005 17:55:37 +0530 From: Subbiah Arunachalam <arun(a)mssrf.res.in> Digitizing what researchers need JISC and CURL have released a report, Digitisation in the UK: The Case for a UK Framework. Excerpt from the executive summary: In just a handful of years, an enormous amount of richly detailed and flexible digital material has been amassed in the UK as technology has expanded to make it possible: a conservative estimate suggests �130 million of public money has been spent on the creation of digital content since the mid-1990s. Nevertheless, this growth has been as unstructured as it has been phenomenal, and the material has accumulated in the absence of a UK framework for digitisation to advise on content, standards and sustainability, rather than in response to one....Moreover, digital projects have tended to be driven by supply rather than demand, spurred by opportunity instead of actual need. A wealth of material in museums, libraries, archives and journals remains undigitised, despite the pressing need to sustain the momentum, to continue to create resources of increasing value and comprehensiveness for the end user. The very existence of powerful search facilities is changing users' behaviour and expectations. Future digitisation programmes must respond to this and need to be more clearly informed by researchers' needs....In 2005, JISC and the Consortium of University Research Libraries (CURL) commissioned Loughborough University to undertake an in-depth investigation into the current state of digitisation in the UK, and this document draws on its findings....Loughborough's research uncovered deep fragmentation in all components of the digitisation infrastructure: the records of available material, the provision of e-resources for different disciplines, the metadata and standards used, the advisory and support services, the availability of funding, the differing priorities of funders, and variable hosting, delivery and authentication methods. Yet the very interconnectedness of the elements of the digitisation process, where each impacts on the other, makes it both easier and more essential to place them within a framework which can make formal links that resonate across all operations. All shortcomings identified in Loughborough's study can therefore begin to be addressed, from inadequate metadata to lack of collaboration, by uniting the various sectors through a UK framework for digitisation. A UKwide strategy would assist in filling gaps in provision, cut across the efforts of individual funders and digitising organisations, reduce overlaps between support services and assist in the provision, take up and use of resources. Fears that any such 'nationalisation' might stifle local innovation can be allayed by emphasising the flexible nature of the framework we envisage; one which would issue clear guidelines rather than prescriptive demands, which would draw up 'gold standards' to be regularly reviewed. Such a framework, then, should be coordinated and distributed, rather than centralised, and ensure effective networking of expertise across different sectors. Also see the JISC press release (November 24, 2005).

UGC-NET syllabi revision ( Sudhier.K.G.Pillai)
by sudhier k g pillai 28 Nov '05

28 Nov '05

Sir, In recent years there is a sharp decline in the number of students qualifying UGC-NET exam from univty. of Kerala. At the same time the numbers are high in Calict and MG univties.It does'nt mean that the quality of students of our univty is not upto the mark! Many have qualified NET earlier, ie from 1991 onwards. I have qualified it in two different times in Lb. & Inf. Science itself! Recently in an interview for the post of I st gade Libraraian at the Kottayam based college, there were more than 15 candidates applied. There are enough number of NET qualified library professionals are available in the state. Of course, there should be periodic changes in the exam pattern, and in the syllabi .It is ecouraging that UGC itself has constituted a committee in this regards. As professionals, we do'nt try to dilute the NET Exam for getting more aspirants! regards sudhier kg Sir, In recent years there is a sharp decline in the number of students qualifying UGC-NET exam from univty. of Kerala.
