Fwd: All you need to know about Blogs, Wikis and RSS
by K.R. Mulla 19 Sep '08

19 Sep '08

Dear LIS Professionals, *All you need to know about Blogs, Wikis and RSS* Maybe you've heard the buzz about *blogs, wikis and RSS*, but wonder how they can be used in your library. Perhaps you're uncertain if you have the technology or time to integrate these communication tools into your organization. You can learn all that you need to know about blogging, wikis and RSS feeds by enrolling now in one of our popular *Keep Up! workshops*. We'll take a look at examples of good library blogs and wikis, and maybe even a few bad examples. We'll discuss what makes them fall into each category, and how you can avoid the latter. We'll discuss where RSS fits into the picture with each of these technologies, and how you can leverage RSS feeds to keep your patrons and staff up to date, even if they don't use a feed reader (and we'll talk about those as well). No technical expertise is necessary to learn about these technologies, and very little is required to implement them. This online workshop is ideally suited for frontline staff who may be implementing and working with these technologies on a regular basis, and for managers who may be responsible for developing policies around these tools. *For more information about this Keep Up! workshop and to register, please click on the links below:* Tuesday, October 14 ,2008 (Registration Deadline 10/6/08)<http://visit.oclc.org/t?r=896&c=1442927&l=30874&ctl=1E42BD9:A361D4350A9FC9F…> 10:00 a.m.- 12:00 p.m. Pacific Time *Location:* WebEx Online Meeting Thursday, November 6, 2008 ( Registration Deadline: 10/29/08)<http://visit.oclc.org/t?r=896&c=1442927&l=30874&ctl=1E42BD9:A361D4350A9FC9F…> 1:00 p.m.- 3:00 p.m. Pacific Time *Location:* WebEx Online Meeting Wednesday, December 10, 2008 (Registration Deadline: 12/2/08)<http://visit.oclc.org/t?r=896&c=1442927&l=30874&ctl=1E42BD9:A361D4350A9FC9F…> 10:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. Pacific Time *Location:* WebEx Online Meeting >From RSS feeds to member updates, staying informed is easier than ever with OCLC Western electronic communications<http://visit.oclc.org/t?r=896&c=1442927&l=30874&ctl=1E42BDA:A361D4350A9FC9F…> . -- Thanks with regards K.

Some basic Questions
by sabuj kumar chaudhuri 18 Sep '08

18 Sep '08

Dear Friends/Respected Sir/Madam I have some basic questions regarding a Librarian's Status in College/University: Why librarian's job is non-vacational? Don't we recognize the research need /academic freedom of Librarians like teachers? What are the actual status of librarian ? Do we consider librarians as teachers or someone else? Why librarians need to clear (UGC)NET/M.Phil/PhD? If they are having the same entrance qualifications and same recruitment hurdles then why don't they enjoy the same acdemic freedom (like FIP, Phd increment,One day off, 16 hrs job /week, same retirement age, no major/minor research project etc)? Why are UGC or State govts. hiding these matters behind the equal pay (8000-275-13500)status ? Why our so-called renowned/influential professionals/tecahers /professional association feel shy to talk about the matter before the concerned authority? Do we really feel ourselves subordinate to our teacher friends? Why don't our associations are raising nationwide agitation for redesignate our service as per propsition of AIFUCTO? I do not want to hurt any body.What I am said is from the core of my heart and these are very important matters to make this profession attractive to the new generations. I love this profession.I am Librarian by choice not by compulsion.I am proud of being a Librarian. Actually I feel, a profession or a subject develops when it gets absolute parity and respect.Without parity,recognition and respect Librarian will not shine any more. I will be very happy to discuss the matter with you all and share your valued comments on these questions. with warm regards. sabuj ---------------------------------------------- Dr. Sabuj Kumar Chaudhuri Librarian Basanti Devi College [http://www.basantidevicollege.org] (An affiliated college under University of Calcutta) 147B, Rash Behari Avenue Kolkata-700 029, West Bengal India Phone:(033)24641012 email:sabooj_c@yahoo.co.in ;sabuj_c(a)yahoo.co.uk ;sabujkumarchaudhuri(a)gmail.com website:http://www.geocities.com/sabuj_c/sabuj.html ---------------------------------------------- -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

US Congress May Kill NIH Open Access Research Rules
by Saiful Amin 17 Sep '08

17 Sep '08

Greetings. There is an important debate happening in Slashdot on the above topic: http://news.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08/09/16/208247 Summary: "*A policy that mandates public, open access to all National Institutes of Health research is in danger. The House of Representatives is considering legislation that would change the open access policy<http://arstechnica.com/articles/culture/open-access-science.ars>to make it more publisher-friendly, under the false pretense of protecting copyrights. The Ars author paints the new legislation as somewhat reflective of a turf battle in Congress: 'The Intellectual Property Subcommittee clearly felt that it had been ignored during the original passage of the bill that compelled the NIH's open access policy...' The article concludes: 'Currently, the disruptions wrought by the Internet and expectations of open access are too new for a viable alternative to traditional publishing to have emerged. But it doesn't appear that the NIH policy is making a significant contribution to that disruption, and the benefits of the policy appear likely to be significant. If Congress rolls back that policy in response to disagreements with other countries over film piracy, then it could really be throwing the baby out with the bathwater.*" Regards, Saiful -- Saiful Amin +91 9343826438 -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Fw: Australian innovation report recommends Open Access to research outputs
by Subbiah Arunachalam 14 Sep '08

14 Sep '08

----- Forwarded Message ---- From: Stevan Harnad <amsciforum(a)GMAIL.COM> To: AMERICAN-SCIENTIST-OPEN-ACCESS-FORUM(a)LISTSERVER.SIGMAXI.ORG Sent: Wednesday, 10 September, 2008 23:52:37 Subject: Australian innovation report recommends Open Access to research outputs The Australian minister for Innovation, Industry, Science and Research, Kim Carr spoke about this report in a speech released yesterday. Full text here. It is embodied in a series of recommendations aimed at unlocking public information and content, including the results of publicly funded research. The review panel recommends making this material available under a creative commons licence through: machine searchable repositories, especially for scientific papers and data and the internet, where it would be freely available to the world. ...The arguments for stepping out first on open access are the same as the arguments for stepping out first on emissions trading – the more willing we are to show leadership on this, we more chance we have of persuading other countries to reciprocate. This speech reflects a number of recommendations in the report: Recommendation 7.7: Australia should establish a National Information Strategy to optimise the flow of information in the Australian economy. The fundamental aim of a National Information Strategy should be to: ·utilise the principles of targeted transparency and the development of auditable standards to maximise the flow of information in private markets about product quality; and ·maximise the flow of government generated information, research, and content for the benefit of users (including private sector resellers of information). Recommendation 7.8: Australian governments should adopt international standards of open publishing as far as possible. Material released for public information by Australian governments should be released under a creative commons licence. Recommendation 7.9: Funding models and institutional mandates should recognise the research and innovation role and contributions of cultural agencies and institutions responsible for information repositories, physical collections or creative content and fund them accordingly. Recommendation 7.10: A specific strategy for ensuring the scientific knowledge produced in Australia is placed in machine searchable repositories be developed and implemented using public funding agencies and universities as drivers. Recommendation 7.14: To the maximum extent practicable, information, research and content funded by Australian governments including national collections should be made freely available over the internet as part of the global public commons. This should be done whilst the Australian Government encourages other countries to reciprocate by making their own contributions to the global digital pubic commons.. ________________________________ As ROARMAP indicates, the world leader in Open Access, both in time and in absolute size, is indisputably the United Kingdom: A UK Parliamentary Select Committee was the world's first governmental recommendation to mandate OA, in 2004. However, the UK government, under pressure from the publishing lobby, did not accept its own committee's recommendation. Nevertheless, six of the seven RCUK research funding councils went on to mandate OA anyway. The UK now has a total of 18 university and funder OA mandates (including the world's first OA mandate at Southampton's School of Electronics and Computer Science in 2003). Australia, however, adopted the world's first university-wide OA mandate in 2004, and with its current total of 7 mandates along with this vigorous governmental support from Minister Carr, Australia is the world's relative, if not absolute leader in OA, by size as well as timing. And it is about to consolidate that leadership with an international Open Access and Research Conference in Brisbane next week, convened by Tom Cochrane, the DVC who engineered the world's first university OA mandate. By way of comparison, the US, the country with the world's largest research output, has only five OA mandates (though that includes one from the NIH, the world's biggest biomedical research funder, as well as Faculty mandates from Harvard and Stanford).. Universities are the sleeping giants, and the council of the European Universities Association (EUA) has unanimously recommended the adoption of an OA mandate by its 791 member universities in 46 countries -- but that mandate has not been adopted yet (although Professor Bernard Rentier, Rector of University of Liege is working on it, withEurOpenScholar). But Australia looks poised now to be the one that sets all the dominoes falling worldwide.
