DRTC_Student Seminar 01

04 Sep '24

*Documentation Research & Training Centre (DRTC)* *Indian Statistical Institute* 8th Mile, Mysore Road, RVCE Post Bangalore, 560 059 *Seminar-01* *(2023-2025)* *Title: Recommendation Systems in Libraries - Improving User Experience & Discovery of Resources through Recommendation Systems* *Coordinator: **Dr. Biswanath Dutta* *Speaker: **Racha Singh* *Abstract* Traditionally libraries have been functioning as providers of reliable information to their users with their collections of books & resources. However, the emerging technologies have been shaping them (libraries) to function as dynamic hubs of knowledge and information. In the era of such technological advancements, libraries have to keep evolving in the ways they function while meeting diverse user needs. One of the identifiable challenges faced by library/information service providers is in addressing the problem of ‘information overload’ while navigating vast collections of information and assisting users with the information they need in less time and with more efficiency. Recommender systems (or recommendation systems) functioning as efficient information filtering tools, search through large volumes of dynamically generated information, and provide users with personalized content and are therefore widely recognized for their role in e-commerce and online media platforms. This seminar explores the application of recommender systems in library settings, discussing various approaches to information filtering through recommender systems and the research in this domain. The seminar thus aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the role of recommendation systems in the library environment and how they can improve library services along with the user experience by providing more relevant and personalized services. *Date: **05/09/2024 (Thursday)* *Time: **1:30 p.m.* *Venue: **DRTC Class Room (G-16), ISI Bangalore* *All are cordially invited!*

Fwd: Ms Elbakyan's Declaration on OA to knowledge
by Subbiah Arunachalam 28 Aug '24

28 Aug '24

Friends, Ms Alexandra Elbakyan recently issued a Declaration on Open Access to Scientific Knowledge, but it is available only in Russian. Is there anyone among the nearly 6,000 members of LIS-Forum who can get an authentic English translation When I was teaching a course at INSDOC four decades ago, INSDOC had several high quality Russian translators. And the Soviet Embassy had two Russian teachers who taught Russian language for free and I knew them well. I left Delhi more then 28 years ago and I do not know anyone in the Russian Embassy, and INSDOC lost its identity after it was merged with two other CSIR institutions in Delhi. Here is what I obtained from gemini.google.com, but it is only a summary. A Summary of Alexandra Elbakyan's Declaration on Open Access to Scientific Knowledge Disclaimer: While I cannot provide a complete English translation of the document at this time, I can offer a detailed summary based on the information available and my understanding of the key points. Alexandra Elbakyan's declaration is a strong advocacy for open access to scientificlp knowledge. It argues that: Fundamental Rights and Scientific Knowledge - Human Right to Knowledge: Scientific knowledge is a fundamental human right, essential for progress and societal development. - Inequality and Paywalls: Current paywall systems create significant inequalities in access to knowledge, particularly for those in developing countries and institutions with limited resources. The Role of Publishers - Profit-Driven Model: Publishers prioritize profit over the dissemination of knowledge, often charging exorbitant fees for access to research articles. - Author Rights: Authors should retain ownership and control over their work, rather than transferring those rights to publishers. The Benefits of Open Access - Accelerated Research: Open access can accelerate scientific progress by enabling broader collaboration and faster dissemination of research findings. - Increased Impact: Open access articles tend to have a higher impact than those behind paywalls, as they are more widely read and cited. - Social Justice: Open access promotes social justice by ensuring that scientific knowledge is accessible to all, regardless of their socioeconomic status. Call to Action - Legal Framework: Governments should establish legal frameworks that support open access and protect the rights of authors. - Institutional Support: Universities, research institutions, and funding agencies should adopt policies and practices that promote open access. - Public Awareness: The public should be made aware of the importance of open access and the challenges faced by researchers in accessing scientific literature. In essence, Elbakyan's declaration is a powerful statement in support of the open access movement. It calls for a fundamental shift in the way scientific knowledge is produced, disseminated, and consumed, emphasizing the importance of making research freely available to all. ..... ..... I and many others involved in the OA movement will be grateful to anyone who could provide an authentic translation of the full text of Ms Elbakyan's Declaration. With warm regards, Arun

*INDIAN STATISTICAL INSTITUTE* *DOCUMENTATION RESEARCH AND TRAINING CENTRE* *8th Mile Mysore Road, R. V. College Post, Bangalore 560059* *Cordially invite you to attend the* *SPECIAL LECTURES* *Lecture 1: AI and Productivity * *Speaker*: *Dr. Michael Shepherd*, Professor Emeritus, Dalhousie University, Canada *Date*: 26 August 2024 (Monday) *Time*: 10:00 AM *Venue*: G16, Ground Floor *Abstract*: Developed economies suffered a decline in productivity in the 1970s and 1980s, despite substantial investment in IT, and again from 2000 to 2020. Now, there are predictions of major increases in productivity due to the impact of Generative AI. Artificial Intelligence is an important tool for knowledge workers such ICT professionals, physicians, librarians, and lawyers, etc. This talk will address how AI can augment and complement the knowledge worker, and the potential impact of Generative AI on the labour force. *Tea Break: 11:00 am to 11:30 am* *Lecture 2: Responsible AI: Issues and Gaps* *Speaker*: *Dr. Carolyn Watters*, Professor Emeritus, Dalhousie University, Canada *Date*: 26 August 2024 (Monday) *Time*: 11:30 AM *Venue*: G16, Ground Floor *Abstract*: The current wave of Generative AI is attracting great interest globally. These Systems have captured our imaginations but are not without issues and risk to people and to systems. The emergence of concerns about the potential impact of these technologies to people and cultures has led to increasing demand for the development and application of Responsible AI policies and regulations. Responsible AI principles are grounded in human-centred ideals of trust, fairness, and accountability to ensure that benefits from Gen AI are widespread and harms caused by Gen Al are mitigated. In this talk, we examine the current state of responsible Al activity and the issues now emerging of data acquisition, computing power, and environmental impact that Responsible AI policies and regulations must begin to address. *Dr. Biswanath Dutta* (Head DRTC) Presides

Friends, I have a few questions. I will be grateful for answers. 1. When will STI 2020 (promised as the 5th edition of India's science policy) be released? The draft was ready and final in mid December of 2000. Some of my friends, Rahul Siddharthan, Arul Scaria, Francis Jayakanth and many others were involved in the preparation of the chapter dealing with scholarly communication and open access. 2. A suggestion was made as far back as 2004 0r 2005 that the Government should mandate open access archiving of all research papers resulting from public funding. Why is it not happening even after two decades? 3. What is the current status of ONOS? The past three years librarians were told in December/January to subscribe to journals and they all had to do it in a hurry. 4. What is the current status of NIC's OA journals platform for Indian medical journals. ? Who is the key person there? With warm regards, Arun http://orcid.org/0000-0002-4398-4658 http://www.researcherid.com/rid/B-9925-2009
