Greetings The highly fluid technological leaps and bounds require us to provide services which are user friendly and accesible. So to say "any time and all time" information availability. We all know the impact of Internet technology in the field of library science - it helpes us reach the personal inbox spaces of individuals and corporates. Mobile technology enables us to reach the information right into the pocket. We at Dr. VN BRIMS library are launching "Info-in-Cell" service from Independance day 15th August 2006 targeted primarily at end users - Students, Faculty, corporate members and staff. Installation of e-books on various models mobile phones and other handheld devices (including laptop, desktops). The Library at Dr. VN BRIMS would be happy to help other libraries to launch this service. The members would be happy to note that our students have already started using this service. This helps them read e-books on their mobile phones when they are travelling thus utilising their time productively. Please feel free to contact me at sandeep(a)vpmthane.org for further details. Given opportunity in any Seminar / Conferences, I would be happy to explain how to install ebooks in Mobiles Practically.

SIG III International Paper ContestFundraising Campaign
by Satish Munnolli 11 Aug '06

11 Aug '06

-- * Apologies for cross posting * -- *Elsevier, Eugene Garfield Foundation, SIGs, Chapters, LIS Schools, and Individuals have contributed $7,220 to the ASIST SIG III International Paper Contest* SIG III would like to thank the generous donors for their support for the International Paper Contest, who have helped raise $7,220 since mid-March 2006. The SIG III fundraising campaign is ongoing and we welcome contributions to keep the program going. Here is the list of donors that have received as of August 10, 2006: -Institutional Donors Eugene Garfield Foundation: $2,150 Elsevier: $2,000 Kent State University SLIS: $500 Drexel University College of IST: $500 ASIST Chicago Chapter: $500 ASIST Los Angeles Chapter (LACASIS): $300 University of Western Ontario: $250 University of South Carolina: $200 Information International Association: $100 University of Toronto: $100 ASIST European Chapter: $100 ASIST Central Ohio Chapter: $100 -Individual donors: $375 Bonnie Carroll, Lucy Te-Chu Lee, D. Rajabooshanam, Julian Warner -In-Kind Donations Two copies of the “Berkshire Encyclopedia of Human-Computer Interaction” by Berkshire Publishing Group. (awarded to the second authors of the top-ranked 2nd and 3rd Paper Contest winners). This year marks the seventh anniversary of the ASIST SIG III International Paper Contest on International Digital Libraries and Information Science & Technology Advances in Developing Countries. The International Paper Contest is one of the most successful programs run by SIG III each year. The papers submitted represent important developments in information science, and they serve to advance the information profession worldwide. To date, 323 authors of 270 papers from 51 countries/areas have participated in the SIG III International Paper Contest. Many of the papers have been published in library and information literature, including the International Information and Library Review and the Bulletin of the American Society for Information Science and Technology. In addition, contest winners often see advances in their professional careers. Their stories are posted on the ASIST SIG III website at http://www.asis.org/SIG/SIGIII/. This valuable opportunity would not be available without the financial support provided by all of our generous donors. The raised funds will support two-year ASIST memberships for six to eight of the paper contest winners each year and cover expenses of the top winner(s) to travel from his or her home country to the ASIST Annual Meeting. Since the first paper contest in 2000, through this program, SIG III has sponsored over forty two-year ASIST memberships to contest winners from 15 different countries, and has supported 16 winners to attend the ASIST Annual Meeting. SIG III is currently reaping the benefits of our International Paper Contest fundraising campaign, which is bringing in donations from all over the world. As in the past years, SIG III was privileged enough to receive donations from various ASIST Chapters (including the newly formed European Chapter), many of which donate on a regular basis, and others that have contributed greatly to our fundraising effort throughout the past several years. Elsevier has also been a constant help, donating $3000 this year ($2000 for the International Paper Contest alone, and another $1000 for the International Reception). The Eugene Garfield Foundation has also generously provided us with $2150. We are also thankful to the LIS schools throughout North America that have contributed generously to this campaign. Finally, thanks to individual donors and to Berkshire Publishing, which has graciously offered two copies of their Encyclopedia of Human-Computer Interaction. We would like to thank all of these donors for their ongoing support, as it means a great deal to us. We are also extremely grateful for the help of these donors. Without their contributions, we would not be able to run the International Paper Contest, which benefits so many scholars and information professionals around the world. Additionally, we would like to thank all the individual donors who have contributed in the past and will contribute again in the future. Finally, we would like to thank the Executive Director Richard Hill and Director of Finance Janice Hatzakos at ASIST headquarters for their help in processing the donations and making them available for our digital scholar funds. The officers and members of SIG III are always working diligently to make this SIG the best it can be. Between this effort and all the support received this year, it is certain that this year’s International Paper Contest will be just as successful as it has been in the past years. Again, thanks for the continued support. For more information about the International Paper Contest, please visit the International Paper Contest section of the SIG III website (http://www.asis.org/SIG/SIGIII/) Nadia Caidi, SIG III Chair, 2005-2006. --------- We would greatly appreciate more donations to keep this paper competition running. If this is possible, please send a check, made payable to: ASIST for the "Digital Scholars Fund," attn: Richard Hill Executive Director, ASIST 1320 Fenwick Lane, Suite 510 Silver Spring, MD 20910, USA We thank you for your generosity in contributing to this International Paper Contest that has benefited so many people. _______________________________________________ Sigiii-l mailing list Satish S Munnolli Librarian Advanced Centre for Treatment, Research & Education in Cancer (ACTREC) Tata Memorial Centre Sector 22, Kharghar, Navi Mumbai 410 208 India Ph : +91 22 2740 5026 Fax : +91 22 2740 5085 Email : smunnolli(a)actrec.res.in %-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-%-% % % % Note: The present domain [actrec.res.in] will be changed to % % [actrec.gov.in] w.e.f. 15th August, 2006.

OA mandated at the University of Tasmania
by Subbiah Arunachalam 11 Aug '06

11 Aug '06

OA mandate at the U of Tasmania School of Computing The University of Tasmania School of Computing has its own OA repository and a policy mandating that all refereed publications in conferences, journals and books, be deposited in the School/University repository. This applies to faculty, and to PhD candidates and other students, without exception. [From Peter Suber's blog]. The larger universities in India, especially the central universities, will do well to mandate OA for all faculty and student publications in refereed journals OA mandate at the U of Tasmania School of Computing The http://www.comp.utas.edu.au/ University of Tasmania School of Computing has its own http://eprints.comp.utas.edu.au/ OA repository and a http://www.eprints.org/openaccess/policysignup/fullinfo.php?inst=University… policy mandating that all refereed publications in conferences, journals and books, be deposited in the School/University repository.

Return on research enhanced by OA
by Subbiah Arunachalam 11 Aug '06

11 Aug '06

Here is an interesting paper on the economic returns of OA (from Peter Suber's blog). Arun ------ More on the Houghton/Sheehan analysis Stevan Harnad, Maximising the Return on Resource Investment in Research, August 10, 2006. Excerpt: In a recent preprint, Houghton & Sheehan (2006), using estimates from economic modeling, have confirmed the substantial potential enhancement of the return on resource investment in research if the resulting articles are made Open Access:... Excerpts: "Whether applied across the board or to sector specific research findings (e.g. open access to publicly funded research) it seems that there may be substantial potential benefits to be gained from more open access. For example [GERD = Gross Expenditure on Research and Development]... - With Germany's GERD at USD 58.7 billion and assuming social returns to R&D of 50%, a 5% increase in access and efficiency would have been worth USD 3 billion; - With Japan's GERD at USD 112.7 billion and assuming social returns to R&D of 50%, a 5% increase in access and efficiency would have been worth USD 5.8 billion; - With the United Kingdom's GERD at USD 33.7 billion and assuming social returns to R&D of 50%, a 5% increase in access and efficiency would have been worth USD 1.7 billion; and - With the United State's GERD at USD 312.5 billion and assuming social returns to R&D of 50%, a 5% increase in access and efficiency would have been worth USD 16 billion. "While it is impossible to calculate the quantum of benefits with certainty, these simple estimates of the potential impacts of enhanced access on returns to R&D suggest that a move towards more open access may have substantial positive impacts... "Given substantial R&D expenditures and the scale of the potential impacts identified in this preliminary work, these issues represent fertile ground for further policy relevant inquiry." These estimates agree substantially with prior estimates that have been made (e.g., for the UK, Canada and Australia, see below). Research Funding Councils and Universities worldwide are at last beginning to realise that it is high time (indeed well overdue) to maximise the returns on their research investment by mandating Open Access self-archiving....

Of interest to physicists

From Peter Suber's blog myADS-arXiv as a "tailor-made, open access, virtual journal" E. Henneken, M.J. Kurz and six co-authors, myADS-arXiv - a Tailor-Made, Open Access, Virtual Journal, a preprint self-archived August 4, 2006. Abstract: The myADS-arXiv service provides the scientific community with a one stop shop for staying up-to-date with a researcher's field of interest. The service provides a powerful and unique filter on the enormous amount of bibliographic information added to the ADS on a daily basis. It also provides a complete view with the most relevant papers available in the subscriber's field of interest. With this service, the subscriber will get to know the lastest developments, popular trends and the most important papers. This makes the service not only unique from a technical point of view, but also from a content point of view. On this poster we will argue why myADS-arXiv is a tailor-made, open access, virtual journal and we will illustrate its unique character. Please spread the word among physicists.

Open data policy
by Subbiah Arunachalam 11 Aug '06

11 Aug '06

Friends: Should governments make data collected with taxpayers' money freely available to all on the Net? The Manitoba state government in Canada thinks so. Please see the news story appended below. What is the situation in India and other developing countries? Subbiah Arunachalam ---------------------------------- Praise for Manitoba's open data policy Michael Cross, Canada proves itself to be genuine land of the free, The Guardian, August 10, 2006. Excerpt: The government of Manitoba says it was the first in Canada to make all its publicly funded geospatial data freely available, without any licensing terms, to government, businesses and citizens. This is the policy that Technology Guardian's Free our Data campaign calls on the UK government to adopt. Officials say that the Manitoba Land Initiative, adopted in 2000, is based on sound business sense. "Frankly, it just did not make good economic sense to try and sell data that the taxpayers already paid for, and it was costing us much more to try to sell data and manage distribution then we were making in revenue," says Harvey Pokrant, director of the information technology services branch in the provincial capital Winnipeg.... This is a vivid contrast to the UK government approach, which encourages state bodies holding data to treat it as intellectual property and to charge for its use, even by other parts of government.... In theory, freeing data along the Manitoba model should make life easier for officials creating policies for environmental protection, managing natural resources and encouraging investment in the province. It should also encourage the private sector to create value-added products based on public data. Pokrant says there is evidence that this is happening....
