LOC cooperates with EZB (Elektronische Zeitschriftenbibliothek) (fwd)
by Library 05 Jun '03

05 Jun '03

Dear everyone, This is a very well presented and user-friendly site for locating e-journals. It also tells us what are freely available and what are subscribtion based. Interestingly, links are also provided to archives of journals - to Gallica, to JSTOR etc. Please check it out. Regards, Girija Srinivasan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Raman Research Institute Library, Tel: +91 80 361 0122 C V Raman Avenue, Sadashivanagar, Fax: +91 80 361 0492 Bangalore 560 080, India. Email: library(a)rri.res.in ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Mon, 19 May 2003 06:42:49 -0400 (EDT) From: Ann Okerson <ann.okerson(a)yale.edu> Reply-To: liblicense-l(a)lists.yale.edu To: liblicense-l(a)lists.yale.edu Subject: LOC cooperates with EZB (Elektronische Zeitschriftenbibliothek) Below follows a translation of a press release issued last week in German from the Regensburg University and their EZB project. Of great interest. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- RELEASE Developed five years ago as a new service in the Regensburg University Library for using electronic scientific and scholarly journals, the EZB (Electronic Journal Library/Elektronische Zeitschriftenbibliothek) has developed rapidly in the areas of scholarship and research. In that time, more than 200 research libraries and research institutes in Germany and others elsewhere in Europe have joined the service. Now the Library of Congress, the leading library in the United States and the largest library in the world, has joined as a new member. The EZB has in the process won a powerful international partner. Made aware of the impressive range and quality of the collection and the userfriendly presentation of over 14,000 electronic journals, the Library of Congress wanted to broaden its experience with this innovative library service. Their representatives were especially taken with the division of labor in the organization of the EZB. Specifically, the full text scholarly journals were gathered on a cooperative basis by all the members in a central database operated in Regensburg. The metadata needed for use of the journals was managed in common. Only through the collaboration of many partners can the quality and availability of the data be assured for the long term. The Regensburg University Library constructed the technical and management infrastructure required for the enterprise. Thanks to the support of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft and the German government's Ministry for Education and Research, the service can be continually adjusted and developed for new demands. The Library of Congress invited the Regensburg University Library to visit Washington in January of this year for a demonstration of the service onsite and to discussion the possibilities for cooperation. In April, the Library of Congress decided to employ the opportunities of cooperation with this service and to take part in the common effort. A common exchange of data will be carried out, which will bring appreciable advantages for both parties. The Library of Congress is able to offer its users improved and more expansive access to electronic journals and at the same time the EZB enriches itself with a considerable number of titles. Through the new partnerships we have a most promising opportunity to esbalish the EZB beyond Europe as the largest collection of scholarly online journals in the world. That should further increase the already intensive use - in the last year, 6.4 million requests for titles were logged - still further. Going forward, the Library of Congress and the Regensburg University Library (representing the EZB) have joined in other aspects of collaboration. One challenging aspect of the cooperation will be to develop common international standards for the development of this new form of publication and the technical experience that will allow for an efficiently automated data exchange. The goals include also a mutual exchange of know-how in the acquisition and licensing of electronic journals. We have made a beginning in a very promising international partnership.

Dr Ashok Jambekar - condolences
by Prof. N. Laxman Rao. 02 Jun '03

02 Jun '03

dear friends, Dr.Ashok Jambekar's death is major shock to all the professionals. If any one had met him, u can understand his personality. He moves and mixes with all immaterial what is the age / experience / status. He is positive and helps all. I had few opportunities, and he was ready for every thing i.e. to work and share his resources / experience for the professional development. It is a great loss to the profession. On behalf of myself, ALSD (HYDERABAD) and IATLIS, we pray God almighty to give strength to his family members to face the sudden death of our senior professional. We also pray God to rest his soul in peace.
