debate on role of LIS-Forum
by Mailing List Manager 28 Sep '05

28 Sep '05

Dear Member: All the responses to Mr. Goudar's initiation of debate on whether LIS-Forum should circulate messages that have only regional significance, have been very favourable. So, LIS-Forum will continue to circulate such messages as long as the messages carry some useful information. A suggestion from one of the members that the messages be categorized appropriately may not be a solution for such of those who would like to discard the messages based on the the subject line. Just providing correct subject line for the matter will greatly help such members. Categorization may not be needed. Couple of requests for the smooth functioning of the Forum: Quite a few members of this list receive their messages in 'digest' form. Invariably, when such a member replies to a message, the subject for such replies will be something like: LIS-Forum Digest, Vol 30, Issue 33 which is not the appropriate subject. Also, all the messages received for the day will be included in the replies, which is not required at all. Please ensure that your messages have relevant text as the subject and include only the relevant original message in the replies. Quite a few students, who seek help from the fellow members, seem to be using the forum as the first resort. It should not be so. They first need to make a sincere effort to get the required information themselves. When they approach the Forum, they should seek suggestions and clarifications rather than expecting the members to find information for them. As always, most of the postings are received as multipart, meaning they contain attachments. Please ensure that your postings to this forum are only in textual form. Thanks for your co-operation. Best Regards, - Moderator

submission for LIS-forum
by ANIL SINGH 27 Sep '05

27 Sep '05

Dear Sir, Please find below my submission for sharing with LIS-forum Members. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unjustified Qualification for Assistant Librarians Dear LIS-Forum Members, At present the essential qualification for the post of Lecturers in the pay scale of Rs.8000-13500/- in Library and Information Science in University and Colleges is Post Graduation in the concerned subject with at least 55% marks or its equivalent grade of B in the UGC seven point scales plus a consistently good academic record. Besides fulfilling the above qualifications, candidates should have cleared the National Eligibility Test (NET) for Lecturers conducted by the UGC/ CSIR. However, the candidates who have completed MPhil. Degree by 31 st December 1993 or have submitted Ph.D. thesis to the University in the concerned subject on or before 31 st December, 2002 are exempted from appearing in the NET examination. In case such candidates fail to obtain Ph.D. degree, they shall have to pass the NET examination. Whereas the qualification prescribed by the UGC for the Assistant Librarian in the pay scale of Rs.8,000-13,500/- is also same as of Lecturer. But, Lecturer having MPhil or PhD at the time of appointment will get two and four advance increments and their basic pay will start from Rs.9100/- and 8550/- respectively, then why Assistant Librarians having PhD/MPhil are not being given four/two increments. In addition to this, Lecturers are also getting the benefits of CAS (Career Advancement Scheme), which is not for Assistant Librarians. Here, I would like to discuss following points among LIS-forum members: 1. Assistant Librarians are being deprived from advance increments and CAS because UGC assumes that Librarianship is not an academic profession, than why NET is compulsory for Librarianship. UGC-NET is a National Eligibility Test for Lecturership only. It should not be mandatory for Librarianship. In number of universities in India, the Assistant Librarians are being appointed without having NET and some universities also give an option of either PhD or NET for Assistant Librarians. Even some universities are also giving advance increments benefit to library professionals. Why there are different rules for the same post? 2. For the post of Assistant Librarians in universities, UGC may prescribe MLISc with 55% and five years experience as Professional Assistant. This qualification is also justified because the qualification for the post of Deputy Librarian is MLISc with 55% and five years experience as College Librarian or Assistant Librarian in University. And also for Information Scientist in university library which is also equivalent to Assistant Librarians, the qualification is MLISc + PGDCA. By changing the qualifications, number of Professional Assistants can get promotional avenues those are stagnating on the same post since several years and Universities may also appoint experienced Assistant Librarians. 3. We are conducting number of conferences, seminars, workshops and training programmes for library and information professionals. These are organized for updating/refreshing the knowledge in the field of library computerization, Information and communication technologies and librarianship so that we can provide excellent service to the users. But, I think, until and unless library professionals are not satisfied with its profession (in respect to promotional avenues), they cannot provide excellent service to its users. Librarians have to update their knowledge in three fields i.e., LIS + Computer Science + in the field of institutional objectives in which they are serving. In spite of that Librarians have been neglected in respect to career advancement. Hence, CAS should be implemented for the Library staff. >From this platform, I would like to requests to all the Senior Library and Information Professionals in the country specially Professors and Heads of LIS Departments of Universities, University Librarians, Presidents and Secretaries of library associations, and Directors of all National Level Documentation Centres to take necessary measures to resolve these serious anomalies as they have been serving in various committees of UGC related to LIS profession. Our senior colleagues can only convince UGC in constituting clear rules, guidelines and policies in respect to qualifications, benefit of advance increments and CAS for library profession. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------- Anil Singh Division of Library, Documentation and Information National Council of Educational Research and Training Sri Aurobindo Marg, New Delhi - 110016 E-mail: mailto:rathoreas@hotmail.com rathoreas(a)hotmail.com

Role of LIS Forum
by chandrashekhar navalgund 26 Sep '05

26 Sep '05

Dear Professional Freinds, I agree with what Dr. Shalini Urs has mentioned about the Role being played by the LIS-Forum being run by NCSI. Here I would like to share my personal views how the forum is helpful to the people in general and Library professionals in particular. All members are not actively participating in communicating / sending the messages and that does not mean that only few members are using the LIS- Forum for example me itself. Though I am not sending the messages regularly but, regularly, I go through the messages and lots of things I am able to know by going through the messages sent to this forum be it the professional activities , knowing some of the technical details, new web sites found by someone etc. etc. like this many such things I come to know from this forum. So, like me, many others are getting such benefits though this forum though they are not acticve communicators to the forum. C U Navalgund Dy.

Dear friends, Lis-forum is one place where we stay connected with each other professionally and come to know many latest developments in the field through discussions. Why should it be limited to any state association, or area or university or even country. Except personal wishes, which can be communicated directly to individuals, all other professional topics can be discussed for our benefit. Lis-forum is one of the best forums that I have come accross amongest my different subscriptions. Gayathri Sen PESIT __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?

Local Association Postings on LIS-FORUM
by N.S. Harinarayana 26 Sep '05

26 Sep '05

This is in response to Dr. Goudar�s call for discussion on appropriateness of postings on activities of local associations. Local associations in their own way are contributing to the growth of the profession. Their activities is normally intended to benefit its members locally. This does not mean that the issues discussed in a local association do not worth national/international attention. �Think globally and act locally� is the motto of most of the local associations. My close association with one of the local associations has shown that whenever we post the activities of the association, invariably we get some suggestions/comments/criticisms/appreciation etc from some corner. We take these inputs seriously and discuss them in our meetings. We also receive request for a copy of the lecture/discussion that we had in our association. We normally oblige these requests. This proves the point that the postings about the happenings at local associations do act as a trigger for further discussion and research. I do not wonder if an activity in a local association sets the agenda for discussion at national/international levels. Hence, I see no reason for banning the postings about local association activities on LIS-FORUM. -- N.S.Harinarayana Ph.D Department of Library and Information Science University of Mysore Manasagangotri, Mysore 570 006 Ph: 2419393

[Fwd: Re [bytesforall_readers] BBC Program on ICTs vs POVERTY]
by Subbiah Arunachalam 24 Sep '05

24 Sep '05

Source: http://www.dev.tv ICTs vs POVERTY What role do ICTs have in banishing poverty? We have just had a Millennium Summit Plus 5 in New York. To no-one’s surprise, the ambitious so-called "Millennium Development Goals" for halving poverty are not being met. Could that be because in the 21st century we are overlooking the 21st century solution for bridging the divide between Rich and Poor? Namely: to invest more in ICTs – television, radio, computers, the Internet, mobile phones, and so on? On 30 September, at the headquarters of the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) in Geneva, we are staging a Debate on the emerging agenda for the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS). An invited audience of 50 ICT movers and shakers will fire questions at a distinguished panel. The Debate will be broadcast on BBC World Television on 22 October 2005, in advance of Phase II of WSIS, which will take place in Tunis, Tunisia, on 16-18 November 2005. This is your chance to have a say by sending your questions to Anita McNaught, moderator for the Debate. Send your questions right up to 12:00 GMT on 29 September 2005 on anita(a)dev.tv, and we will do our best to make sure they are put to the panel. This Debate is staged with support from SDC, GKP, and UNDP-APDIP.

Re: Gouder Plz don't get offended !! (fwd)

Dear Dr. Kaiser, Your opinion given in the text is perfectly OK and I agree with you that we should avoid personal communication and festival/birtday greetings. Infact Lis-Forum is already following these norms. However a good personal experience having a relation to LIS or somebody's outstanding achievements in LIS, etc can go through forum. When somebody requests for an article or a book through forum (justified), but the response by resource library and in turn thanking mail by the requester be sent to the concerned person only, not through the forum. In my posting I have clearly mentioned quality, relevance, etc. This is in confirmity with what you have opined. This being the case where was the need to mention in the Subject?

Elocution Competition at DLIS, University of Mysore, Mysore
by N.S. Harinarayana 24 Sep '05

24 Sep '05

MULISSA event � 4: Elocution Competition Mysore University Library and Information Science Students Association (MULISSA), Department of Library and Information Science (DLIS), University of Mysore, Mysore organized an elocution competition for the students of MLISc and MIM on Friday, September 23, 2005 at 3.30 pm. The elocution competition was arranged by MULISSA to encourage the students to improve upon their public speaking abilities, to overcome impediments such as stammer, stutter, general nerves, and to increase their confidence in their communication. Each participant was asked to speak for two minutes about any topic of their choice. The competition received an overwhelming response from the student community. Public speaking tops the list of phobias for most people. Public speaking anxiety is very common among student community. The anxiety of students in public speaking center around: being embarrassed; worries about mistakes; looking stupid; judged unattractive; no one being interested in what they have to say; and not wanting to be the centre of attention. Speaking on the occasion Prof. Shalini R Urs urged the students to participate actively. Oratory is a skill that needs to be cultivated consciously, as no one is a born orator. Proper preparation and practicing/rehearsing would help to communicate better. She said, even most successful speakers practice their speech. She cited the examples of Sir Winston Churchill � one of the most successful orators of the world - being confessed in that he was practising his speeches for important occasion before a huge mirror. There was an interesting range of topics that the students chose to speak on. They include: places; leaders � political and spiritual; institutions of learning � colleges, Departments and Universities; education; jokes; eye donation; technology; fundamental duties; personal traits � self respect, friendship etc. Events like Siachen and Katrina were also subjects of talk in the elocution competition. One student talked for entire two minutes on his futile effort to find a topic for the elocution competition!! A quick feed back collected showed that students enjoyed the programme and at the same they felt that the programme has helped them to overcome their inhibitions to some extent. Dr. Mallinath Kumbar, Reader, Department of Library and Information Science, University of Mysore, Mysore and Ms. Pushpa Joseph, Assistant Librarian, Mysore University Library, Mysore adjudged the student performance in the competition. Ms. M. Nagaveni and Ms. K. Savitha won the first and second prizes respectively. Giving his opinion on the competition, Dr. Kumbar said that these kinds of competition would help the students to improve their communication skill. He said apart from competition, the DLIS has been trying its best to improve the communication skills of students by way of compulsory seminars and assignments. It may be noted here that DLIS, Mysore has recently introduced one exclusive paper called �Personality Development and Communication Skills� in its MLISc curriculum. Dr. N.S. Harinarayana, the faculty advisor of MULISSA welcomed the gathering and Sri. C.S. Surendra proposed the vote of thanks. -- N.S.Harinarayana Ph.D Department of Library and Information Science University of Mysore Manasagangotri, Mysore 570 006 Ph: 2419393

RE: [LIS-Forum] LIS-FORUM: ITS ROLE
by M Koteswara Rao 23 Sep '05

23 Sep '05

Dear Colleagues, I do agree that this LIS-Forum started by Late Dr. Rajashekar is the first of its kind in the country for library professionals. Over the year it has helped all of us in many ways. It is an example of a practical work done by Dr. TBR, and not just 'plain talk' given by many. However, I do not agree to Mr. Goudar's statement ".... Rather we need (not?) bother about the quality, importance and relevance of the of the content in the postings....". I think that the quality and relevance of the content is also very important in lis-forum. We are already aware that many of the postings on this forum are too immature and lack quality and sense of direction. If we need to keep this forum active and alive, we should definitely adhere to some standards. M.
