Reading in India and our role
by Subbiah Arunachalam 02 May '14

02 May '14

Friends: Check these two quizes from *Christian Science Monitor*. http://www.csmonitor.com/Books/2013/1015/Are-you-as-well-read-as-a-12th-gra… http://www.csmonitor.com/Books/2012/0625/Are-you-as-well-read-as-a-10th-gra… Reading maketh a man, is an old saying. By this yardstick, many of us, let alone children and the youth, will be found wanting. Don't you think the education we provide our children has a long way to go? Libraries can play a key role in this effort. Let us reflect what we have done as LIS professionals so far and think of plans for the immediate future. There are many great Indian novelists, short story writers and poets, both living and deceased. NBT and Sahitya Akademy have brought out many of their works. And other publishers too, in all Indian languages. Many magazines carry serialized novels, novellas, short stories and poems. I knew as a child several people in my little hometown who used to gather each installment and bind the whole novel into a book. There are a few magazines like *Puthagam Pesutu* (in Tamil), which is entirely devoted to books, writers and ideas. These are performing services similar to the New York Review of Books and TLS. Let us encourage users of our libraries and reading rooms to get interested in such magazines. Someone I know, a writer of historical fiction with three novels in Tamil and one in English and a few more in the pipeline, has decided to read at least one book (in print and not on Kindle) every week. He also belongs to a discussion group which meets once a month to discuss a great novel and the impact it has had on the members of the group and society in general. He belongs to a Facebook list which discusses similar matters. We can encourage such models among users of our libraries. Let us encourage reading among our children and the youth. Our public libraries and school libraries can play a major role in this. It is an encouraging sign that the sale of books is increasing every year at major book fairs in India, albeit most of the sale is accounted for by certain categories (like self-help). Best.

Fwd: Fred Friend
by Subbiah Arunachalam 30 Apr '14

30 Apr '14

Friends: I have chosen to be the messenger bringing some sad news to the LIS community. A great academic librarian and a champion of open access, Fred Friend is no more. Fred was a librarian of the University College of London and an adviser to JISC. He rarely, rather never, talked about himself or his contributions. One can call him self effacing. I had met him a few times (in conferences) and had corresponded with him a few times. His commitment to his work was truly amazing. RIP. Arun ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: LIBLICENSE <liblicense(a)gmail.com> Date: Tue, Apr 29, 2014 at 4:45 AM Subject: Fred Friend To: LIBLICENSE-L(a)listserv.crl.edu From: David Prosser <david.prosser(a)rluk.ac.uk> Date: Mon, 28 Apr 2014 13:35:23 +0100 I have been tasked with a very sad commission. Neither Alma or Paul are subscribers to Liblicesne and so they have asked me to post the message below. Fred was a gentle man and a compelling open access advocate. We will miss him and our thoughts are with his family - who I know he cherished greatly. David ——————————————————————————————— A message from Alma Swan (a.swan(a)talk21.com) and Paul Ayris ( p.ayris(a)ucl.ac.uk) Friends, It is with great sadness that we have to tell you of the death last week of Fred Friend. Fred was one of the staunchest supporters of Open Access and worked to further its aims for almost two decades. Early in that period he was, of course, Librarian at University College London, a position that gave him influence and the means to push arguments for openness that were at the time new and considered rather heretical. After retirement from that post Fred served for many years as a consultant to JISC, advising and carrying out research work for JISC on scholarly communications. He was in his element in this role as it gave him the opportunities he needed to continue making the arguments for Open Access and to develop practical initiatives that helped to advance the cause. Latterly, Fred pursued his aims through continuing consultancy jobs and indeed at the time of his death he was embarking on an ambitious analysis of OA policies. We have lost a very good friend of Open Access and a great humanitarian. For many there will also be the feeling of losing a kind and loyal personal friend. His daughter, Cate, said to us, “It means so much to hear about his professional life - he was so private and so humble that he never really talked about what he did (I used to joke with him and tell him that I told everyone that he was a spy!).” We would like the OA community -- Fred’s friends -- to let Cate and the rest of Fred’s family know about the work Fred did and the great colleague that he was, so we are going to collect tributes to Fred and his work and will put these together into a book for his family. If you have something to say, please email your words to one of us, including your job title where relevant to give some context to your comments for the family. Thank you in advance for your contributions. For those who can attend the funeral, the ceremony will be held at 12.30pm on Thursday 1st May at St Michael and All Angels, Hughenden, near High Wycombe in the UK. The family will welcome anyone who can be with them on that occasion. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

DRTC Students Colloquium (5)

28 Apr '14

INDIAN STATISTICAL INSTITUTE DOCUMENTATION RESEARCH AND TRAINING CENTRE 8 TH MILE MYSORE ROAD, RVCE POST BANGALORE 560059 DRTC COLLOQUIUM -5 Document Retrieval to Entity Retrieval: A New Search Paradigm ABSTRACT: It is quite often observed that when people use retrieval systems, they do not just search documents or text passages in the first place, but for some information contained inside, which is related to some entities, for instance, person, organization, location, events, etc. The goal is to obtain information on entities. Entity search, a search mechanism, tries to identify entities strongly associated with query terms. Entity search differs from traditional document retrieval in a number of ways. Entity search tries to close the gap between what a searcher is looking for and the actual things that exist in the real world. Further, a query may consists of multiple aspects of entity(ies). For complex queries, entity search is helpful to find out relevant answers. Entity search engine enables searchers to explore highly relevant information during search to discover interesting relationships among its various facets. This colloquium is divided into multiple sub-topics as follows: 1. Introduction: Tanmay Mondal 2. Motivations behind Document to Entity Search: Mohit Grag 3. Entity and its Facets: Manash Kumar 4. Schema: Dibakar Sen 5. Entity Retrieval : Shiv Sakhti Ghosh 6. Entity Search Techniques: Anwesha Bhattacharya 7. Case Study: Sandip Das and Jayanta Kumar Nayek 9.

Many dedicated and committed library professionals have put in their fine tuned services and skills, and all these resulted in putting this National Neuroscience Information centre on a global map par excellence. Just last year only Dr. H.S.Siddamallaiah, Principal Library and Information Officer of this library retired on 31 Jul 2013 (Currently he is: Visiting Professor, Faculty of Informatics, Mahasarakham University, Thailand).

Bhanumathi joined NIMHANS Library as Library Assistant in the year 1981. Soon in 1982 she became Librarian and later in 1999 she has been elevated to Senior Librarian position. Before joining the NIMHANS Library, she has had a 5 years professional work experience for having worked at Bangalore University library, and DRTC.

Create your own Library Blog/Website with WordPress: KLA-CPD offers 2 Day Hands-on Workshop on WordPress, the open source CMS
by S.L. Faisal 25 Apr '14

25 Apr '14

Dear Professionals, KLA Centre for Professional Development (KLA-CPD) announces a two day hands-on workshop on WordPress, a free and open source blogging tool and a Content Management System (CMS), on May10 and 11, 2014. The programme will be held at the newly inaugurated training facility of Kerala Library Association, the KLA Centre for Professional Development (KLA-CPD), on the premises of KLA Head Quarters, Thiruvananthapuram. ABOUT WORDPRESS WordPress was born out of a desire for an elegant, well-architectured personal publishing system built on PHP and MySQL and licensed under the GPLv2 (or later). It is the official successor of b2/cafelog. WordPress is fresh software, but its roots and development go back to 2001. It is a mature and stable product. WordPress started in 2003 with a single bit of code to enhance the typography of everyday writing and with fewer users than you can count on your fingers and toes. Since then it has grown to be the largest self-hosted blogging tool in the world, used on millions of sites and seen by tens of millions of people every day.Everything, from the documentation to the code itself, was created *by and for the community*. WordPress is an Open Source project, which means there are hundreds of people all over the world working on it. (More than most commercial platforms.) It also means you are free to use it for anything from your cat’s home page to a Fortune 500 web site without paying anyone a license fee and a number of other important freedoms. You can download and install a software script called WordPress from WordPress.org. To do this you need a web host who meets the minimum requirements and a little time. WordPress is completely customizable and can be used for almost anything. There is also a *service* called WordPress.com which lets you get started with a new and free WordPress-based blog in seconds, but varies in several ways and is less flexible than the WordPress you download and install yourself. WordPress started as just a blogging system, but has evolved to be used as full content management system and so much more through the thousands of plugins and widgets and themes. Source: https://wordpress.org/about/ WORDPRESS FOR LIBRARIES Worldwide, hundreds of libraries have created their blogs or websites with WordPress. This highly customizable blogging system can be used very effectively as a web portal to your library's resources and services. The open and free nature of WordPress made it a is highly recommended blogging platform for libraries with less or no financial support, to launch their own website and provide online services. In India also, we have a good number of library blogs created with WordPress. A list of libraries around the world using WordPress is given below. http://lib20.pbworks.com/w/page/59677899/WordPress-Libraries-examples Special mention: http://universityofglasgowlibrary.wordpress.com/ Some examples of Indian libraries with blogs on WordPress are, Library, Kendriya Vidyalaya Pattom: http://librarykvpattom.wordpress.com(launched in 2007) K.
