Re: [LIS-Forum] Limit of consecutive words during plagiarism check

Dear Mr. Rama Thanks for your email and I appreciate your research capability and curiosity, actually not only some but many people in India are having the same misunderstanding and unfortunately, they have made some rules also without even spending at least a few minutes to check this practically in Turnitin. The claim of limit by consecutive words in Turnitin is so strong and dominating by many senior peoples that my mind is puzzled. I hope your reply will be viewed by many such people and they will re-think it and respond to their views again.

Thanks, Mr. Tapan I guess you are talking about below option "Exclude sources that are less than" ......... (words) .......... (%) Don't exclude by size Can you please clarify where Turnitin has written consecutive words? I guess its not consecutive words but the total count of words matched in any similar documents. Say if you put 14 words as per UGC rule of consecutive words then actually it will exclude all the matching documents bearing less than 14 similar words.

Dr. M.S. Sridhar's latest research article
by Francis Jayakanth 16 Nov '19

16 Nov '19

Dear Members, Just wanted to bring to your attention one of Dr. Sridhar's (Head (Retd.), Library & Documentation Centre, ISRO Satellite Centre, Bangalore) latest research articles, Future Libraries: Romance of LIS with Futurology, published in SRELS Journal of Information Management, Vol 56(5), October 2019, p.240-245. Here is the abstract of the article: The paper examines the past ‘romance’ of LIS with futurology, traces the flaws of disintermediation threat and the resultant repositioning options of LIS, stressing the need for imagination coupled with reason to turn experience into foresight; identifies the importance of physical space, content, and ambience of libraries to move from ‘Transactional library’ to ‘Relational library’ and from a ‘Center of information’ to a ‘Center of culture’, enumerates a number of non-ICT innovations that have already taken place in libraries, mentions technologies that can be considered for their appropriateness and adoption to enhance value of services. In conclusion, highlights how libraries are marginalized in the digital era by putting ‘access’ before ‘selection’ (avoiding filtering at the input stage) and giving away control over organization of information to users, how ‘access to excess’ and speed over-ride the validity and the quality of content leading to distracted and dissatisfied users; finally cautions about equating ‘provision for access’ to utility and need for greater understanding of user-behaviour in the digital domain. You may read/download the full article from the ResearchGate site, https://www.researchgate.net/publication/337049758_Future_Libraries_Romance… Best regards, Francis Francis Jayakanth JRD Tata Memorial Library IISc, Bengaluru
