Dear Library professional, I would like to get your opinion on the followings : 1. Should we do Stock Verification in presence of any outsider or a dedicated person from any other department(not from Library)? If so, from Starting stock verification to reporting the result he/she has to be present or not? 2. Books purchased for the book banking system are also tobe included in the Accession Register or we can have a parallel register for Book Bank? 3. Is it not permitted to do white inking for any mistake made in the Accession Register. If we do white inking - Should we have to have a separate account about the reason? 4. If we are not able to purchase the books in accordance with the allocated budget. Should we have to maintain any cause register or not? 5. Are you taking any budget allocation letter from your higher authority? Your kind response is highly expected at the earliest. -- *Regards **……* _______________________________________________ * Dr. Pradip Das* *Ph. D., MBA (HR), M. Phil, M. L. I. Sc., B. L. I. Sc., B.

Symposium on 'Open Access to HSS research - Perspectives from Latin America and the United Kingdom'
by madhan muthu 08 Feb '21

08 Feb '21

*Dear Friends:* *You are invited.* *Symposium on 'Open Access to HSS research - Perspectives from Latin America and the United Kingdom'* Organised by Azim Premji University Date: Feb 17, 2021 Time: 06:30 PM India Registration: https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_ka4dkgmTT9e5VoJYzf19xA We look forward to your participation. Kindly share this invitation to all you think would be of interest. Host: Dr Venkat Nadella, DST-Centre for Policy Research, IISc, Bengaluru Speakers: Title: *Open Access in HSS in the UK - the conflict between big ideas and small communities* By Dr. Rebecca Darley ( Birkbeck, University of London) Rebecca was part of a project organised by the British Academy, a non-governmental representative body for HSS in the UK, to write a report about the possible impact of UK’s open access policy on HSS subjects. The report < https://bit.ly/3pXySm8>, which was published in 2014, resulted in some changes to the government policy. In this talk, Rebecca will briefly discuss the global and local context of open access debate and the specific forms of open access that the UK makes most use of. Also, she will talk about the role of small publishers, especially learned society journals, in UK HSS publishing and the unresolved conflict between ideological support for open access and the practicalities of publishing. Title: *Social Sciences and Humanities open access scholarly communications in a developing region - policies, initiatives and needed changes in research assessment (the case of Latin America)* By Dr. Dominique Babini and Dr. Laura Rovelli (CLACSO-Latin American Council of Social Sciences) In an international context of Sustainable Development Goals research agendas, and advances in open science policies and practices, SSH research produced and published within developing regions are an important contribution. Dominique Babini and Laura Rovelli will describe how Latin America has advanced in the past two decades with open access policies and initiatives that are collaborative, publicly-funded and non-profit, and the role of the Latin American Forum on Research Assessment (FOLEC-CLACSO) in the promotion of a much needed review of quality, grounded and relevant research evaluation procedures. -- Madhan, M -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Science Policy, Competition and Profits
by madhan muthu 06 Feb '21

06 Feb '21

https://www.indialegallive.com/column-news/open-science-policy-e-shodh-sind… As far as commercial publications are concerned, under the present laws, we will have to depend upon a more efficient and expanded version of E-ShodhSindhu. This would mean that the service should be available to any organisation at bulk subsidised rates in a cafeteria format. The charges could be indexed so that smaller bundles cost less and the charges increase progressively with the size of the bundle. In the meantime, the government can also set up a website where sources (national and international) providing free downloads of documents on different topics are listed. Meanwhile, we must be quite clear that Sci-Hub and Library Genesis are providing an enormously useful service to scholars all over the world. It will be a long time before any official agency in India will be able to provide a comparable service. The best we can hope for is that the court cases against them languish for as long as possible as they do for much less laudable causes. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

One nation, one subscription
by M S Sridhar 29 Jan '21

29 Jan '21

Dear moderator, Request you to post the following in LIS Forum: Dear friends, Widely talked *‘One nation, one subscription’* (draft S&T policy) is not a new idea. Way back in the 1990s a similar proposal that ‘*no two libraries in India will subscribe to the same journal’* was made by Prof. Vishvanathan, then Director, INSDOC (and quoted by an international journal). This happened after too many and too long efforts of ‘rationalisation of subscription to journals’ by DST. Of course, *no two libraries in India will subscribe to the same journal* never took off. As a student (over 50 years ago), while studying information systems of various countries I heard/ read about *VINITI* of USSR, which used to subscribe to *one copy of all significant journals* of the world and translate each issue cover to cover to print to distribute to Russian scholars and researchers. By doing so, they have not only achieved ‘*one nation, one subscription’*, but *overcome barriers to language and OA* within the country. All these were easily possible for them within reasonable expenditure because of the totalitarian nature of the country. One another difference, today, is that we are talking of e-journals and not print journals. In a democratic set up, knowingly that it is impracticable and prohibitively costly, should we go with ‘one nation, one subscription’? If pursued, it will be like *‘networking for resource sharing’* and *‘consortia approach to subscription’* projects of past 2-3 decades where covert objectives of *centralization of resources and authority/ power *are met but not savings and extra service. Issues are certainly debatable!

And, kindly share this invitation to people you think would be of interest. *Azim Premji University is organising a symposium on 'Open access to archives, to support humanities research in India'* Archives, libraries, museums, and other institutions around the world increasingly digitize their collections and provide web-wide access to them to all users. New tools and standards have enabled such institutions organising their digital collections in open repositories in a structured way and providing seamless interoperability between the repositories. This symposium will focus on maximizing access to the materials housed at different archives in India which are primary sources of information for humanities research, and the issues and possibilities in providing open access to archival materials. Date: 3 February 2021, Time: 3-5 PM Kindly register: https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_krs3C3t3T02OlpMvkFQplg Host: Tarangini Sriraman, Azim Premji University Digital archives and open access By Maya Dodd A focus on open access is much needed for the actualisation of knowledge societies, and this is easily possible with digital archives. Such archives especially afford the tools to catalogue and cross reference under-examined narratives of community knowledge, and can kindle new ecosystems of storytelling and inspired research in addition to academic study. These new registers, created through digital technologies, often cross-question official narratives and enable a multiplication of viewpoints, languages and forms for the co-creation of public interest. Toward an archival commons By Venkat Srinivasan Through examples of various kinds of archival objects, this talk will be an attempt to perhaps state the obvious: that the production of knowledge is heavily dependent on what enters these spaces we occupy for research. The talk will bring out ideas from a recent art installation on the idea of an archive, where we aimed to reflect on the very existence of the archival object. Venkat will also touch upon some archival resources in the field, obstacles in getting archival material more broadly accessible and finally talk about a new collective, Milli, that we are part of. Milli is building open source tools for the public to find and annotate archival resources, along with seeing narratives develop from them. *Speakers * *Maya DoddProfessor @FLAME UniversityMaya is Professor of FLAME University.
