RE: [LIS-Forum] "First computerised library in country to be inaugurated"

From: Subbiah Arunachalam <arun(a)mssrf.res.in> Already Sathya and Vyasamoorthy have rightly pointed out that the Gandhinagar library IS NOT THE FIRST to computerise. A simple verification of facts was all that was needed. But then who cares for facts at a time when what matters is one has to SOMEHOW be seen as the first, truth be damned. But why this fetish about being first. All we want is libraries should serve the local communities in the best possible manner. They are not running a race competing with each other. All of them want to serve their clientele and we should hel them do that. Is there anything more we can ask for?

About Bibliometry and the five laws of S. R. Ranghanathan
by Carlos Vílchez Román 27 Aug '04

27 Aug '04

Hi everybody, Sorry if this message has been posted before. My name is Carlos Vílchez-Román, a Peruvian librarian, faculty member of the Library and Information Science School of the Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos. I have finished a study about library and information science research in Peruvian universities, but I have some doubts with the theory framework, especially this: The bibliometric laws (Bradford, Zipf and Lotka) and the five laws of Ranghanatan could be considered part of the Lakatos' hard core? As you know, Imre Lakatos coined the term "scientific research programs", as a conceptual alternative to the Kuhn's paradigm. Since this topic is highly controversial I want to know different perspectives. Any information would be appreciated. Best regards, Carlos Vílchez-Román Peruvian Librarian --------------------------------------------------------------- Banco de Crédito BCP - Dedicados a hacerte la Banca más simple.
