Fwd: Introducing Canary Haz: discovering article PDFs with one click
by Shamprasad Pujar 06 Jun '17

Dear All, FYI. You may find the details in the trailing mail. Regards, S M Pujar Deputy Librarian IGIDR, Mumbai ========================================== ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Nason Bimbe <nasonbimbe(a)gmail.com> Date: Tue, Jun 6, 2017 at 5:17 PM Subject: Introducing Canary Haz: discovering article PDFs with one click Access to PDFs of research papers is too often overly complicated and restricted. Canary Haz, a free browser plugin that helps researchers access the PDFs they need with just one click, has been released in response to this frustration. Peter Vincent, one of the co-founders, explains a little more about how Canary Haz works, while also encouraging feedback from the wider research community. Frustrated by unnecessary barriers between researchers and journal papers, two colleagues from Imperial College London and I set out on a mission to solve the academic PDF “access problem”. Last month we released Canary Haz, a free browser plugin that helps researchers access the PDFs they need with just one click! http://blogs.lse.ac.uk/impactofsocialsciences/2017/06/06/introducing-canary… -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Others talk about innovative library facilities aspect that include being knowledge partner rather than a resources provider only; continually training and guiding the users in using library resources. Facilities also include developing facilities for differently abled sections of the users. Another aspect of innovative practices in libraries includes innovation in resources development and procurement. This aspect encompasses again technology aspect as well as order on demand or pay per view procurement and so on. Innovation in staff management and overall management of library and its operations are some other important dimensions. New technology and methods are adopted by various libraries for efficient and timely delivery of their services to users. Publishers are also using innovative technologies in producing and providing contents to the libraries. Rather than just books or journals, they are developing interactive and comprehensive learning modules where one can learn at his/her pace; can judge the performance or understanding levels and so on. Innovation in libraries also include introducing new services that directly appeal to users and as per their changing requirements.
