by drtc＠isibang.ac.in 04 Mar '19

04 Mar '19

Documentation Research & Training Centre (DRTC) Indian Statistical Institute 8th Mile, Mysore Road, RVCE Post Bangalore, 560 059 STUDENT COLLOQUIUM - 3 (2018-2020) Title: MAKERSPACE Abstract The word makerspace is the combination of two words i.e. maker and space, which refers to creating space for creativity and innovation. Makerspace is a place in which people with common interest come together to work on projects and express their creative thoughts. In the era of ICT, traditional libraries are unable to attract patrons as information is available on internet via digital library services. When we talk about modern libraries, they are spreading their hands to inculcate more innovative services to attract patrons. The concept of makerspaces catch the eye of LIS professionals and there is a huge demand to implement this concept and build library makerspaces. The purpose of this colloquium is to spread more awareness about makerspaces and its uses in libraries. In this colloquium, we will present the benefits and motivation behind this concept along with some tools and technologies and strategies to build library makerspaces and some real world case studies. Speakers and Topics ❏ Sneha Bharti - Introduction ❏ Debanjali Bain - Benefits, purpose and importance in education ❏ Benil Joseph - Types of makerspace ❏ Vaishakh Babu - Library makerspace ❏ Aashish S. Dixit - Strategies to build library makerspace ❏ Jyotima Patel - Tools ❏ Gokul R - Case study ❏ Kangzangbe chilu - Challenges ❏ Swagata Rana - Conclusion Coordinator: Dr. Biswanath Dutta Date: 06-03-2019 Time: 2 p.m. Venue: DRTC Class Room (G-16), ISI Bangalore.

VijayRaghavan was speaking after he tweeted that India would be signing up to the most radical opposition to the scientific publishing status quo: Plan S, an initiative launched last year by a group of European funders to ensure that, by 2020, taxpayer-funded research results are made immediately free to read. The controversial scheme spearheaded by Robert-Jan Smits, the European Commission’s special envoy on open access, has received backing from the European Research Council and 13 national funding bodies, including agencies in France, the Netherlands and the UK. Two of the biggest medical research charities in the world, Wellcome Trust and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, are also on board.

Re: [LIS-Forum] ILA elections request to all members from Dr. Manjunath, TAPMI, Manipal
by Manjunath K 22 Feb '19

22 Feb '19

Dear professional colleagues, Before Individual campaigns, I feel it is the moral responsibility of ILA to inform its members about elections with list of candidates. Though I am a life member, I have not received any communication or ballot paper from ILA. Same status may be with many members. Even if a member is willing to vote, how can he do it without ballot paper?. My request to all candidates who are contesting for ILA elections…. Please make ILA as an organization to start communicating with its members about elections. Then canvassing from candidates or their supporters makes some sense. I trust members get a copy of ILA bulletin. Of late, I am not getting it though my address has not changed. I don’t know whether it is publishing or not. My effort to make ILA as very strong body like AMA, AOM, INFORMS etc.. in all directions to fight for profession, status, justice, high quality publications, financing research projects in LIS etc. for example, Journal of marketing, Academy of management review/journal, Management science etc are No.1. core journals from these associations. My request to all candidates independent of election result: 1. Make ILA a professionally and politically very strong body to fight for profession. 2. Publish high quality journals for all type of libraries. The papers should go through rigourous review and plagiarism checks. 3. Work as nodal/central body for IT/services requests in libraries. 4. Organize in-depth High-quality purpose –oriented training workshops on library functions. ( not just a gathering, should be result-oriented) 5. Nodal counselling/advisory centre for library related problems. 6. It should work as repository of Govt circulars/notifications/orders to help library professional who need such document support for his/her career progress or promotion. From decades, I am requesting and sending repeat mails to make ILA a strong body for library profession. Unlike other library associations, ILA includes all type of libraries. Again, please make ILA a very strong body( whoever get elected) to fight and bring justice for our profession. We all Library professionals are same (teaching or practicing) and let us be united.

The Indian Library Association was established nine decades back with a vision of furtherance of library movement in India, promotion of training of librarians and improvement of status of librarians. Over the years nine more objectives were added to the vision and mission statement of the ILA. Since inception the Association provided a wide variety of services and programs to its members and also others, who seek technical support or advice. Due to the selfless service rendered by 28 Presidents and their teams, the Association has achieved many milestones. As a philosopher puts it, it is not required to put blame on others for not doing everything perfect. The teams have achieved what best could be possible during their tenure within the limitations. To continue the ideologies and works left behind by the past teams, we have formed a team comprising of Librarians, LIS teachers with a mix of young and old blood. PRESIDENT PROF. B. D.

Data Migration is not as difficult as we consider it - Try yourself....It it very easy
by Dp Tripathi 16 Feb '19

16 Feb '19

Dear Friends, This is my personal experience during conversation with professionals regarding library automation and data migration. Many of us are struggling with data migration and consider this as a big challenge. Friends, I wish to convince you that data migration is not as difficult as we are making it. It is very simple process except few cases where we are not having the provision of exporting data in excel or Marc. Whatever system you are working, it does not matter. If you wish to switch over to any other ILMS then only you have to pull your data either in excel or Marc format or ISO format (if possible) then purify your data and make it compatible with your chosen software. Here are few videos which may help you to understand the process of data migration. Please have a blank data sheet with few data in it and practice 2-3 times and you will become master in it. Please don't consider it as tough task. 1. Basic of Data Migration = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TNEoZinoUoc&list=PLekqhBcsqZXIgBN-q0JGVyvEq… 2. Data Migration - Prepare the Excel Sheet https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lKuDGp8Y7M&list=PLekqhBcsqZXIgBN-q0JGVyvEq… 3. Convert the Excel Sheet into Marc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LERl6T92jPw&list=PLekqhBcsqZXIgBN-q0JGVyvEq… 4. Data Migration - Import the Converted file in to Koha https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQmQUN8Bv5w&list=PLekqhBcsqZXIgBN-q0JGVyvEq… Hope these video will help you to understand the process of data migration and also importing the record in Koha.

Block your dates for ICDL 2019...we are back
by Vijay Vikram S Parihar 16 Feb '19

16 Feb '19

Dear LIS Professionals, We are happy to announce the 6th Edition of ICDL 2019….. Digital transformation is the profound transformation of organizational activities, processes, competencies and models to fully leverage the changes and opportunities of a mix of digital technologies and their accelerating impact across society in a strategic and prioritized way, with present and future shifts in mind. While digital transformation predominantly impacts several types of organizations such as governments, public sector agencies and organizations, which are involved in tackling societal challenges addressed in SDG Goals such as Pollution, Education, Energy, and Populations by leveraging one or more of the existing and emerging technologies. The human element is key on all levels: in the stages of transformation as such  (collaboration, ecosystems, skills, culture, empowerment etc.) and obviously in the goals of digital transformation. Since people don’t want ‘digital’ for everything and do value human and face-to-face interactions there will always be an ‘offline’ element, depending on the context. Keeping this in view, we would like to inform you that TERI (The Energy and Resources Institute), India is going to host its 6th edition of ICDL (International Conference on Digital Landscape) from 06 to 08 November, 2019 New Delhi India.

Does the provision of Incremental Fine fulfill the Five Laws of Library Science?
by Dp Tripathi 14 Feb '19

14 Feb '19

Does the provision of Incremental Fine fulfill the Five Laws of Library Science? Five Laws of Library Science enunciated by Dr. S. R. Ranganathan says that 1. Books are for use. 2. Every Book Its reader 3. Every reader his/her book 4. Save the time of Reader 5. Library is a growing organism We the Library Professionals value the above laws to great extent in libraries and try to maximum implement in all aspects but when it comes to Incremental Fine, it raises many questions and in the queue of questions, first question is “Does the provision of incremental fine fulfill the five laws?” Question seems very simple and many of us may say “YES” but some of us may also say “NO” and I am one of NO category. The provision of Incremental Fine creates burden for library users and get pressure from library to return the book on time else s/he will have to pay compulsorily the fine amount next to normal fine as per rule of incremental fine. But, why a user should pay extra amount? Here above laws of library science seems violated. Whey we say Books are for use, Every book it’s reader, Every reader his/her then why libraries are imposing extra fine. If the libraries have to get the book back, they may easily RECALL book or block the user so that s/he will not be eligible to avail services as punishment for violating the rule of not returning the book on time but collecting the extra charges from library users seems like ‘library considers incremental fine as source of revenue’ As a result, this provision may kill the interest of library patron and next time, perhaps s/he may not will to issue any book from library. Perhaps, library may lose the patron interest for visiting library too next time and forever. This may also lead to pass the information by that user to other library users about the negative aspects and as a fear, the other users may stop utilizing the issue/return service of library My question is – “Is it compulsory to impose extra amount, in case user does not return book?” If s/he is not returning book, let the normal fine be imposed as per library policy? Why Incremental Fine? Your suggestions are expected and welcome. Thanks DP Tripathi -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

“Libraries Considered Hazardous’ says Dr. Vint Cerf (father of the Internet)
by Shalini Urs 13 Feb '19

13 Feb '19

Dear LIS Professionals: Dont get provoked by the title of the article by Vint Cerf. Vint Cerf has defined a new role for the library profession! Dr. Vint Cerf, considered one of the fathers of the Internet, because of his invention of the TCP/IP Protocol (with co-inventor Bob Kahn) and currently works for Google as a Vice President and Chief Internet Evangelist and in this capacity has become well known for his predictions on how technology will affect future society, encompassing such areas as artificial intelligence, environmentalism, the advent of IPv6 and the transformation of the television industry and its delivery model. In this *CERF'S UP *piece that Vint Cerf regularly writes for the Communications of the Association for Computing Machinery, published in the current issue (February 2019) outlines a new role of libraries in the context of the current challenges of the ‘post truth’ era by posing the question “How to tell that which was true from everything else in this ultimate library?” Librarians have a role to play here as keepers of knowledge, he says. I quote “It will be an enormous task to devise methods to accumulate and curate digital content and its relevant metadata including provenance and validity. Will computer, information, and library science be up to the task?” I have always maintained that libraries’ role is defined by three As (Access, Availability and Archive). May be it is time to add another A – Accuracy. Or as Vint Cerf says ‘care and curate’ information is the primary role of libraries. Please do read the article and share your thoughts. https://cacm.acm.org/magazines/2019/2/234340-libraries-considered-hazardous… Happy Reading!
