ReBlook: The Lectures on PunerMILAN of Ranganathan
by Sunil MV 07 Sep '16

07 Sep '16

Dear LIS Friends, Greetings from MILAN ! On the occasion of quasquicentennial Birthday Celebration of S.R. Ranganathan, the Mysore University Information and Library Science Alumni Network (MILAN) starts a new series of lectures on the works of SRR which have had formidable influence on the growth of library science as an academic field. Born in 1892, Ranganathan, the mathematician-turned-librarian, put India prominently on the world map of library science. But for his contribution, the library profession would not have flourished in India in the foregone century. As students of library science, it is high time to have a re-look in relation to the modern age. There is a growing tendency to dismiss the seminal works of Ranganathan as being obsolete. There is also a large chunk of professional who believe that Ranganathan is more relevant today than ever before. It is the right time to examine his works in this digitally confused era with an intention of drawing new inspiration to move forward. Acting on the need-of-the-hour, MILAN contemplates to run a series of lectures under the title "ReBlook: The Lectures on PunerMILAN of Ranganathan". ReBlook contains the three main elements found in five laws – Reader (R), Book (B) and L (Library). Blook is a new genre of book which emanates from blogs – thus symbolically representing the new generation resource and also the symbiosis between the printed and digital resources. The word Reblook intrinsically contain the concept re-look and thus representing the purpose of the lecture series. The word PunerMILAN is deliberately spelled the way it has been shown to represent the re-meeting of the modern world with Ranganathan and also to represent the alumni association MILAN. The ReBlook series would be launched on 17th September 2016. It is intended that the lectures would be arranged at different places of the country with the help of MILANers and also some local collaborating agencies at various places. It is hoped that this effort of MILAN will re-sensitize the call for serious research into Ranganathan’s contributions. Requesting your suggestions, views and collaboration in this initiative. Regards, Dr. Sunil M.V. Secretary, MILAN and Librarian Shri Dharmasthala Manjunatheshwara Institute for Management Development (SDMIMD) No. 1, Chamundi Hill Main Road, Siddharthanagar Post, Mysore - 570 011, INDIA Mobile: 99864 39832 | Telephone: 0821-2429722 Extn: 3006 * Please consider your environmental responsibility before printing this e-mail* -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

I may recall that When Sri A C Deve Gowda was the president of Mysore Library Association (now KSLA) in early 1970s (Sri Vikunta Baliga was the speaker of Mysore Legislative Assembly ) there was a move to celebrate the National Library Week coinciding with the birthday of Ranganathan. Ranganathan was very much alive that time. However, the Calcutta group more importantly (it was rumored) the then heads of National Library and INSDOC succeeded in deciding November 2nd week as National Library week. The Hyderabad based Academy of Library Science and Documentation (ALSD) started Librarians Day celebration in late 1970s and others followed the suit till today. Professor Neelameghan was very much aware of it.

At the Sarada Ranganathan Endowment for Library Science the practice was to observe the birthday on any day between 9th and 12th August. However, 12th August has been officially declared as Librarians' day. Prof. Neelameghan had once told me that Dr. Ranganathan did not approve of any function / celebrations even on his birthday. But mortals that we are, we need something to ring the bell and wake us up from slumber and I believe that the celebrations are purely for that purpose. Let us remember that library / information service is a support service so that some one who is our customer is able to carry out his task in a more effective and efficient manner. Let us not forget what Dr. Ranganathan preached and practised. It certainly should not be that we celebrate his birthday and forget his ideals the next day !

by S.L. Faisal 31 Aug '16

31 Aug '16

Dear Professionals, School Libraries are live only when students are engaged. A library in a school can greatly support the entire curriculum which is based on developing 21st century learning skills through interesting and enjoyable reading or information/digital literacy activities. An initiative has begun in the form of a blog ( https://schoollibraryideas.wordpress.com/ ) to compile workable school library ideas, activities, tips, tricks, techniques, or anything worthy related to school libraries. It is conceived as a collaborative project in which any one interested in school libraries can join and contribute. Post your ideas directly if you have a WordPress account. If not, send a request for an invitation to become a contributor. Or just mail your idea to libidea(a)gmail.com. Contributors are requested to briefly present the idea with a title and a short description or example. Nearly 150 activities are already listed on the Blog under four categories, namely, Library ideas for Classes I-V, VI-X, XI-XII and the whole school.These activities may be conducted during the assigned library hours or periods. Many activities are less time consuming but highly engaging. I would like to acknowledge many people who shared their ideas and with a special mention to Ms Usha Mukunada, well known library professional, educationalist and founder-member of Centre For Learning, Bangalore. You may visit the School Library Ideas blog at https://schoollibraryideas.wordpress.com/ Thank you S.L.Faisal Librarian Kendriya Vidyalaya, Pattom Thiruvananthapuram-695 004 Kerala, India Mobile: +91 9447699724 http://slfaisal.com https://librarykvpattom.wordpress.com http://kvlibrarians.grou.ps -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Inauguration of Tent Library @ Mysuru Dasara 2016

---------------------------- Original Message ---------------------------- Subject: Inauguration of Tent Library @ Mysuru Dasara 2016 From: "Sunil MV" <sunilmysore(a)gmail.com> Date: Mon, August 29, 2016 11:49 am To: "lisforum" <lis-forum(a)ncsi.iisc.ernet.in> -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Professional Friends, Greetings from MyLISA Mysore! MyLISA has joined hands with Department of Public Instruction and Department of Public Libraries for the 3rd edition of 'Tent library' The inauguration of "Tent School" and "Tent Library" is scheduled today, Monday, August 29, 2016 at 3:00 PM at Mysore Palace Premises, Mysuru. Shri. Siddaramaiah, Honorable Chief Minister, Government of Karnataka, will be inaugurating the 'Tent School' and 'Tent Library' will be inaugurated by Shri Tanveer Sait, Honorable Minister for Primary and Secondary Education; and, Public Libraries, GoK. You are cordially invited. The formal invitation is attached to this email for your kind information. With regards, Sunil M.V. Vice-President, MyLISA, Mysuru *Background* Books for all is the dictum propounded by Dr. S.R. Ranganathan. He wanted library books for all socioeconomic groups, not just well-educated scholars interested in public domain items. It is the responsibility of the library profession to work towards achieving this goal. MyLISA has put forward its little foot in this direction by mooting the idea of a Tent Library. Mysore Dasara is the Nadahabba (Karnataka State - Festival). One of the central attractions of the ten-day festivities is the five kilometer Jumboo Savari the procession by the main elephant accompanied by other elephants carrying the idol of Goddess Chamundeshwari, the sitting deity of Mysore. The preparation for the procession is done eight weeks before the actual procession. The elephants are brought from nearby forest and trained for the purpose. The trainers of elephants â the mahouts come and stay at Mysore along with their families. Mysore district administration provides them all facilities to their families. Temporary school is started for their children at the premises where they reside inside the palace ground. One of the ardent librarians from Mysore observed that these children lack library facility during that period. He mooted an idea with MyLISA to think of library service to reach the unreached. Acting upon the idea, MyLISA with the support and guidance from the Department of Public Instructions and Department of Public Libraries, City Central Library, Mysore, started tent library services during 2014. Tent Library is extending its service to mahouts and their children in the premises of the palace where the mahouts reside. Tent library being a part of school, regular library hours will be included in the school time-table. Staffs from the City Central Library and MyLISA members visit the tent library and conduct the sessions to these students on reading skills, use of books, books handling, types of books, newspaper reading, and other study aided activities. Expertise of a few renowned school librarians are used in providing the service. A lot of book based activities have been planned. Drawing, picture books, clay modeling, bookmark preparation, painting, etc., were also the part of the session scheduled. Taylor & Francis newsletter - 'Ignite' had covered the story of 'Tent Library' in October-December 2014 issue. This is for your kind information.

Web portal "SugamyaPustakalaya.in" is an online library for persons with visual disabilities. Over 200,000 books available in several languages in accessible formats for people with visual impairment and print disabilities. "Sugamya Pustakalaya: A step towards an Accessible Digital India" (An online library for persons with visual disabilities) was launched by Shri Ravi Shankar Prasad, Minister for Law & Justice and Electronics & Information Technology at a function organized by Department of Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities, Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment here today. Shri Thaawarchand Gehlot, Minister of Social Justice & Empowerment presided over the function. Shri Prakash Javadekar, Minister for Human Resource Development and Ministers of State for Social Justice & Empowerment Shri Krishan Pal Gurjar and Shri Ramdas Athawale were the Guests of Honour. Before the inaugural function, there was a panel discussion on the subject of “Accessible Digital India”. Shri Ravi Shankar Prasad said this is an era of Information and Technology and both are powers. Through Digital India we are seeking to bridge the Digital Divide between have’s and have not’s. We have linked Divyangjans with the common service centres in our country. National Informatics Centre (NIC) is in the process of making 100 Government websites Divyang friendly of which 16 have already been made Divyang friendly. He asked NGOs and citizens to use “My Gov” to provide valuable inputs on Government of India schemes. Shri Thaawarchand Gehlot said his Ministry is dedicated to the Sugamaya Bharat campaign and buildings in several Indian cities will be made accessible. Over 600,000 Divyangjans have been provided equipment and 4000 camps have been organized nationwide to facilitate and upgrade the lives of Digvaygjans and downtrodden sections of society. Permission has been given to establish 18 new Braille Printing Presses. The Divyang College in Trivandrum will also be converted into Divyang University. A new world record was created when 1500 Divyangans were provided equipment in Varanasi. Shri Prakash Javadekar in his address said HRD Ministry will provide just assistance to facilitate the Divyangjans in our country. He said his first convocation address will be at the Divyang University at Chitrakoot. Shri Kishan Pal Gurjar said that Divyangjans don’t need the sympathy of the people but deserve their love, affection and support. Through this launch of “Sugamya Pustakalaya” they will be able to get all valuable information. He also sought cooperation from publishers in this endeavour. Shri Ramdas Athawale said that it is the prime responsibility of his Ministry is to look after the interest and wellbeing of the Divyagjans and backwards sections of our society. He hoped that this initiative will achieve its objectives. Shri Dipendra Manocha, Managing Trustee of Saksham Trust gave a brief introduction of the E-library “SugamyaPustakalaya” on the occasion. "SugamayaPustakalaya.in" is an online platform that makes accessible content available to print-disabled people. The library houses publications across diverse subjects and languages and multiple accessible formats. It has been created by Department of Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities (Divyangjan), Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment in collaboration with member organizations of Daisy Forum of India and powered by TCS Access. Books are available in Accessible formats for people with visual impairment and other print disabilities. Over 200,000 books in diverse languages. Integrating libraries across India and the Globe, including the largest international library, ‘Bookshare’. In case of End User i.e. person with Print Disability: The next time a person with Print Disability needs to read a book, he can skip the laborious process of looking for volunteers to read them to him or scan and edit them. A quick search on the Sugamya Pustakalaya may land him with the book of his choice at the click of a button. He will need to be a registered print-disabled member with one of the member DFI organizations to download the book or procure it offline through their member organization.

In case of a School/College/Library: Universities, School Library, Public Libraries or any such institution can become a member of DFI or subscribe to the online library to offer the entire collection of the Sugamya Pustakalaya to their members or students with print disabilities. Educational institutions can also contribute accessible format books produced for their students so that students from other educational institutions can access the same and avoid duplications of creation at multiple locations. In case of a Publisher/Government House/Textbook Production House: They can be part of creating history by creating the largest accessible online library in a developing country. Increase their reader base to include persons with print disabilities by sharing accessible formats of their publications to be put up on Sugamya Pustakalaya. The library already hosts publications such as Reader’s Digest and India Today and seeks to have new partnerships with a large number of private and government publishing house and publications. Textbooks production houses, state text book boards (SCERTs/NCERT) can meet their obligations under the Right to Education Act (2009) by providing their content to students with print disabilities through this platform. Sugamya Pustakalya will provide protection to books and limit distribution to only those who cannot read normal print.

Why Koha does not print a slash in the call number while printing spine labels.
by Indranil Das Gupta 27 Aug '16

27 Aug '16

Dear all, Quite often (new) Koha users find themselves stumbling while attempting to print spine labels from within Koha. Typically when item call numbers have a front slash "/" in them e.g. the call number 891.44 BAN/T gets printed out as 891.44 BANT. This blog post looks into the topic of Koha "eating up" the slashes in the call number, why it actually shows that Koha is being standards compliant (to Library of Congress, OCLC) and what you can do about - http://blog.l2c2.co.in/index.php/2016/08/26/koha-spine-label-is-not-printin… shared in hopes this will answer more than a few people's query on the topic -- Indranil Das Gupta L2C2 Technologies Phone : +91-98300-20971 Blog : http://blog.l2c2.co.in IRC : indradg on irc://irc.freenode.net Twitter : indradg -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Nonreceipt of LIS-Forum Mails
by franc＠library.iisc.ernet.in 25 Aug '16

25 Aug '16

Dear Members, Quite a few LIS-Forum members have been complaining that they have, all of a sudden, stopped receiving LIS-Forum mails. Most of such complaints are from those who have their lis-forum registrations with their personal IDS - Gmail/Yahoo/Hotmail etc. I have experienced the problem myself as I have registered with both my official and personal IDs. I have reported the issue to our network administration, but I have been told that there are no issues as far as relying of lis-forum mails are concerned from IISc relay host. So, the problem lies elsewhere. Googling the issue reveals that several other discussion lists are having similar issues. The problem could be because of the anti-spoofing policy implemented by Gmail/Yahoo etc., which, in turn, is affecting genuine mails, too. For details about anti-spoofing policy, please follow the link, http://www.pcworld.com/article/2141120/yahoo-email-antispoofing-policy-brea… What is puzzling is that nondelivery of lis-forum mails is not consistent across all the personal ID based registrations. Some members continue to get the lis-forum mails on their personal IDs on a regular basis, but quite a few others are not receiving lis-forum mails at all. I request all the lis-forum registrants who have received this mail to convey the information to their friends and colleagues, especially those who have registered with LIS-forum with personal IDs, and have stopped getting lis-forum mails. Another way to keep a tab on all the approved lis-forum messages is by accessing the lis-forum archives. The archives are available from from April 2003 onwards. It can be accessed at http://ncsi.iisc.ernet.in/pipermail/lis-forum/ Thanks and regards, Francis Francis Jayakanth Moderator, LIS-Forum

Even so, I believe institutional repositories - such as the ones at Raman Research Institute and the Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute - will be the best option. Especially if they are mandated by funding agencies such as DST, CSIR and DBT. Regards.
