by LIS Academy 30 Jun '20

30 Jun '20

Dear Professional Friends, The entire country has been under the Lockdown status due to Covid-19 Pandemic disease. At this juncture, we need to maintain social distance and stay safe. Due to this lockdown status, Education Institutions are closed, and the Librarians confined to the empty Libraries and the students to their houses. The LIS Academy had earlier announced it's National Conference at the University of Hyderabad, Hyderabad, from 27-29 August 2020. Unfortunately, due to the mass spreading of pandemic COVID-19 disease across the country, the organizers have planned to organize a Virtual Conference from LIS Academy Studio on the same dates. Online Virtual LISACON-2020 The LISACON-2020 Conference will now be held in a Virtual Mode operated from LIS Academy. All the Conference's activities will be web-streamed, and the paper presenters will be allowed to present their papers from their places through Video Recording. The Conference Venue will be created with a studio. Only Plenary speakers and Panel Members will be invited for their physical presence. However, if they are unable to attend physically, they can also address their paper through a webinar. The entire Conference will be held on the scheduled three days, and every day there will be two sessions. Each session will consist of 90 minutes with six invited paper presenters and a Plenary Speaker who will moderate the session.

Conference Theme: Reinventing Excellence in Librarianship Excellence is about being the best, striving to be better, and delivering quality services. Libraries are universally considered as social institutions, which facilitate acquisition and dissemination of knowledge. Library professionals are eﬃciently serving the information needs of end-users by adopting new tools, techniques, and technologies from time to time. The advent of digital technologies has brought in disruptive changes in all spheres of the library. Today's library is less about what we have for users and more about what we do for users. Librarianship has to reinvent and reposition itself to achieve excellence. The librarianship needs to rethink innovative content acquisition models, out of the box thinking in extending library services, leveraging technologies, and new modes of reaching the user community. The LISACON-2020 theme "Reinventing Excellence in Librarianship" will focus on bringing best practices, success stories, case studies, and innovative research outcomes to a common platform.

Invitation for Dr. T.B. Rajashekar 15th Memorial Lecture, 2020
by madhuresh.singhal 28 Jun '20

28 Jun '20

Dear All, NCSI-Net Foundation cordially invites you and your colleagues to Dr. T.B. Rajashekar 15th Memorial Lecture, 2020 on: "The State of Open Access: Where does it stand and where is it heading?" By Mr. N.V. Sathyanarayana, CMD, Informatics India Limited, Bengaluru and presided over by Professor Subbiah Arunachalam Date & Time: Monday, 29th June 2020 at 3.30 p.m. Online registration link: https://bit.ly/TBRlecture Note: Upon registration, you will get the Webinar link. Abstract of the talk: The Open Access (OA) movement has been going through two decades of the most highly debated evolution. Various initiatives by all stakeholders - scholarly community, authors, publishers, libraries, funding agencies, and the Government - involved in the movement have brought in changes in journal publishing today. The number of open access journals outnumbers the subscription journals. Even in total article views, OA has overtaken subscription journals. Currently, 31% of all articles are available as OA and 52% of article views are from OA journals. Yet, all these initiatives and results have been limited in their impact. The movement's goal post of 100% OA for scholarly communication is still not in sight. On the contrary, libraries and their consortia models continue to spend a significant amount of their budget on their subscriptions besides additional spending by authors on Article Processing Charges (APC). New business models like Plan S are being talked about with no global consensus emerging. The lecture will focus on the critical issues at the heart of the movement such as the institutional repositories (IRs), OA publishing models, copyright conflicts, challenges of finding a sustainable business model and accelerated role of libraries. The speaker proposes to pose and debate on the question - Is there a disruptive OA model in the reckoning? The lecture will also address the Indian scenario and the challenges it poses for Indian scholarly publishing to become an integral part of global OA models. About the speaker Shri. N V Sathyanarayana is a former librarian, information entrepreneur, and information services and products developer rolled into one. He is the Founder Director of Informatics India Ltd., - a leading Information Products and Services Company, established in 1980. Currently, he is the Chairman and of Informatics. Shri Sathyanaraya started his career as a librarian and worked in institutions such as the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, HMT, Bangalore, and Smith Kline & French, Bangalore for seven years before promoting his brainchild Informatics. He is also associated with several professional/academic bodies connected with the LIS profession and the information industry. To mention a few: Infotex'93; First National Conference on Digital Libraries (in India) in 1996, Bangalore; Infovision 2005, the first International Information Industry Summit, Bangalore. He is the recipient of the Young Information Scientist Award (1991). The Government of Karnataka conferred on him the Best Librarian Award (2006). The lecture will be presided over by: Professor Subbiah Arunachalam, Visiting Professor, DST Centre for Policy Research, Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru. About Professor Arunachalam Prof. S. Arunachalam is globally known for his expertise in Scientometrics and their use for assessing the research impact on a wide scale ranging from individuals and departments to institutions and countries. His interests include scientometrics, science policy, information science, public understanding of science, openness in scholarly communication, ICT for Development and rural knowledge centers, and improving information access, both for scientists and for the rural poor. He is one of the earliest in the developing countries to use citation indexes to study developments in science and science policy. He was instrumental in CSIR, DBT and DST adopting Green open access as official policy. We look forward to seeing you at the event.
