CfP:: 13th International Society of Scientometrics and Informetrics Conference 2011 (ISSI 2011), South Africa
by Puna Das 30 Jul '10

30 Jul '10

13th International Society of Scientometrics and Informetrics Conference 2011 (ISSI 2011) 4-8 July 2011, Durban, South Africa Scope Although the generic term informetrics has become increasingly popular, scientometrics, bibliometrics and webometrics are all closely related or interlinked sub-disciplines. They belong to the general field of Information Science and are all employed for the quantitative analysis or measurement of all forms of recorded information by studying their distribution, circulation and use pattern largely within or among individuals, disciplines, organisations or countries. The informetric disciplines thus contribute to evidence-based and informed knowledge about scientific research and provide input to research and innovation policy making worldwide. Evidently, a conference of this magnitude always encourages the growth of research and increased national and international collaboration. We are convinced that by organising the conference on African soil, we will be able to popularise research in the areas of informetrics, scientometrics and webometrics within the country and on the continent. The ISSI 2011 Conference will provide an international open forum for scientists, research managers and authorities, information and communication related professionals to debate the current status and advancements of informetric and scientometric theory and applications, with emphasis on the progress of scientometrics and science in developing countries. The conference is organized under the auspices of ISSI – the International Society for Informetrics and Scientometrics. The conference language is English. Call for Papers ISSI 2001 invites researchers worldwide to submit original full research papers, research-in-progress papers or posters within the area of informetrics. Major conference themes are listed below. A Doctoral Forum and dedicated tutorials will be held the day prior to the formal conference start. Topics of interest include, but not limited to: * Theory, Methods and techniques * Citation and co-citation analysis * Indicators * Webometrics * Mapping & visualization * Research policy * Productivity & publications * Journals, databases and electronic publications * Collaboration * Country level studies * Patent analysis Important Dates: * Full Papers, Research-in-Progress and Workshop/Tutorial paper submission deadline 15-01-2011 * Paper/Workshop/Tutorial notification of acceptance/rejection 15-02-2011 * Poster submission deadline 18-02-2011 * Doctoral Forum submission deadline 01-03-2011 * Poster notification of acceptance/rejection 14-03-2011 * Paper in camera ready form sent to system (at least one author must register) 17-03-2011 * Doctoral Forum result announcement 01-04-2011 Download Call for Papers: http://www.issi2011.uzulu.ac.za/13th%20ISSI%202011%20announcement.pdf Further Details: http://www.issi2011.uzulu.ac.za/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dr. Anup Kumar Das New Delhi, India http://anupkumardas.blogspot.com/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Author : Lulla, H & Chen SS Vol/ Issue/ Year: V73/ 7/ Pages 1004 - 1006/ 1984 Publisher : Wiley Interscience Keywords Nitrate - simultaneous determination with nitrite, toothpastes, HPLC • Nitrite - simultaneous determination with nitrate, toothpastes, HPLC • Dentifrices - simultaneous determination of nitrate and nitrite, HPLC Abstract A stability-indicating analytical method is described for the simultaneous determination of nitrate, and if present, its reductive degradation product, nitrite, in toothpastes. Nitrate and nitrite were extracted from the toothpaste using distilled water and separated from other water-soluble excipients by two RP-8 columns (250 mm × 4 mm i.d.) using a mobile phase containing 0.2% (w/v) sodium acetate and 2.5% (v/v) glacial acetic acid in distilled water. A UV detector set at 313 nm was used for quantitation. The method was applied to commercial toothpastes containing 5% potassium nitrate and yielded an average recovery of 100.1% with a relative standard deviation of 1.43%. Average recovery of nitrate and nitrite from spiked samples were 100.6% and 96.4%, respectively. The minimum detectable concentration for nitrite was 50 g/g of toothpaste. . -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Richa, I can help you with two questions: >> 2. Can DSpace help us (librarians) manage issue & return of books too. No, Dspace is designed for long term preservation of digitial material. It is not designed to be a library management system. >> 3. Is there any significant difference of space occupied by koha and Libsys and the records of documents therein on server. Unlikely, both are transaction systems, that record data. Such systems should take up very less disk space. In any case disk space should not worry you, since it is very cheap nowadays. I am not clear as to what your requirements are - do you have a lot of visual material in digital or electronic format or are these physical items? If you have these in digital format, you should use Dspace. If these are physical you should use Koha. Note that in Koha It is possible to provide links to electronic material, which can in turn be stored on Dspace. So a Koha + Dspace combination is also something you might want to consider if you have electronic material and physical items that you want to circulate.

Does anybody know any of the CORPORATE LIBRARIES which are using OSS for library management? 2. Can DSpace help us (librarians) manage issue & return of books too. 3. Is there any significant difference of space occupied by koha and Libsys and the records of documents therein on server. 4. Finally, if there is any librarian/data manager dealing with an architectural/museum/visual kind of works in India where lot great images/drawings/artifacts are being generated and catalogued every day, please let me know. Thanks and warm regards ऋचा Richa Srivastava -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Web presence of science institutions
by Subbiah Arunachalam 25 Jul '10

25 Jul '10

Friends: Will someone, say an M Lib Sci student, do a quick study of comparing the coverage of papers from Indian and other developing country institutions in Web of Science, Scopus and Google Scholar? The webometrics team in Spain have carried out such studies. Arun http://www.webometrics.info/openac.html British Universities commitment to Open Access We provide this table as an example of the current situation regarding open distribution of scientific results by world universities. In the case of United Kingdom, the production of quality papers is far higher than the number of them available in repositories and thus being indexed by Google Scholar. UK universities are not achieving higher ranks in Webometrics as compared to other research-based rankings and this is the most likely explanation for this behaviour. We also want to note that this problem does not only affect to the UK but to countries all over the world because many universities are not yet taking the Web seriously. Universities Scopus Scholar % Sco vs Sch University College London 134,950 8,660 6.42% University of Cambridge 114,339 8,320 7.28% University of Oxford 99,723 7,800 7.82% Imperial College 91,537 4,720 5.16% University of Manchester 83,024 3,840 4.63% King's College London 60,407 1,100 1.82% University of Edinburgh 57,473 9,920 17.26% University of Birmingham 56,365 3,900 6.92% University of Bristol 55,232 2,759 5.00% University of Glasgow 51,081 4,750 9.30% University of Sheffield 50,337 2,454 4.88% University of Leeds 49,674 3,230 6.50% University of Liverpool 45,992 1,390 3.02% University of Southampton 44,013 14,000 31.81% University of Nottingham 41,472 3,206 7.73% Cardiff University 39,196 1,274 3.25% Newcastle University 37,591 2,530 6.73% Queen Mary University of London 30,715 1,150 3.74% Queen's University Belfast 29,537 1,050 3.55% University of Leicester 26,883 1,850 6.88% University of Aberdeen 26,398 1,250 4.74% Durham University 24,159 2,650 10.97% University of Sussex 23,322 1,756 7.53% University of Strathclyde 23,269 1,400 6.02% University of Warwick 23,018 6,010 26.11% University of Reading 22,786 1,299 5.70% University of Surrey 21,563 2,020 9.37% University of York 21,554 2,920 13.55% Loughborough University 18,902 4,030 21.32% University of Saint Andrews 17,212 1,490 8.66% Scopus: Publications (1996-May 2010).

What are the measures to be taken while preparing list of books for purchase order so that Library will have good variety of collection ? 2. What care should be taken while preparing terms and conditions for purchase order of books which is to be sent to the Book supplier ? 3. How to manage Library work if staff is insufficient (1 or 3) as well as not very qualified. I have to serve 240 students and 50 staff ? 4. What are the records which are asked by LIC committee and also by NBA ? 5. What is the reliable website or source where we can get updated information about updated norms for Engineering Library ? Because most of the times AICTE or UGC or even University web sites do not update information timely. 6. If anybody knows about ISO certification for Academic Library please guide me.
