Hi Everyone! I'm an M.Phil Scholar who want to know how to attempt the theory paper. Especially the pattern of writing. After my 10 + 2, I never attended college regularly, I'm a correspondent student till my Post Graduation. After a long gap, I started attending college for library science course. Can anyone please give some guidelines as to how to start answering, to proceed and to finish. It's not like the under-graduation or post-graduation paper, a scholarly presentation is needed. I need some help so that I can start preparing for my part-1 paper. My papers are: 1. Research Methodology 2. current developments in LIS Thanks in advance. Valentina. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Date: Tue, 15 Apr 2008 10:52:49 +0530 From: Kshipra Sardesai <kshipra.sardesai(a)gmail.com> Madam, I also support your views. There is no imprtance or real valuation of rare things unless we priced it.I found whatever is free to public no one bothers for the services offered by such organisations like Library which are doing a great job of making such things available to public.The profit makers are always in search of ways out to make money.Government may fix some nominal charges on such rare collection and can divert this revenue for digitisation and infrastructure required for libraries to give best services.

Swapping Best Practices in Librarianship
by Padmanabha Vyasamoorthy 15 Apr '08

15 Apr '08

I agree with Dr Laxman rao. Lots can be done by the librarian who is 1) innovative & 2) ready to sweat it out. Recently a senior professional remarked: "What is there in Lis-forum?. Only forwards of messages from some other Forum. There are no discussions". I asked him how many discussions did he initiate or take part? He became quiet. You see the point? Though I am out of the loop as far as active librarian ship is concerned I do have an active interest in knowing what is happening. How about librarians exchanging best practices. Best practices need not be costly or hightech. For instance the site www.160by2.com permits sending free SMS to mobile numbers from the web. About 50 text messages per day is free. Web based texting permits automation. This can be used by ALSD to send info about meetings to members. Librarians can use it for announcing events. I am using it very successfully to send reminders for meetings concerned with Resident welfare associations. Vyasamoorthy On Sat, Apr 12, 2008 at 9:45 AM, Prof. N.
