Dear All, I am for the most part a lurker on this list. But I thought I would share with you what I have been working on for the past 7 or 8 years. Best, Yosem ***** We are Stanford Liberationtech. Our home page is here: http://cddrl.fsi.stanford.edu/libtech. To sign up to our 4K-strong mailing list, click here: https://mailman.stanford.edu/mailman/listinfo/liberationtech. We have also curated a list of Liberationtech content followed by 40K+ people at https://twitter.com/Liberationtech. If you prefer to read our Twitter list as a newspaper, you could always check our Paper.li account: http://paper.li/Liberationtech#/ Our Liberationtech blog has been dead for a while, but we are working on reviving it. If you are interested in helping out, please let us know. We also have a series of listservs on topics related to Liberationtech. The most important lists are the following: - Events: https://mailman.stanford.edu/mailman/listinfo/libera tiontech-events - Jobs: https://mailman.stanford.edu/mailman/listinfo/liberationtech-jobs - CfP: https://mailman.stanford.edu/mailman/listinfo/liberationtech-cfp For the aforementioned lists, we try to compile a list of all events, job opportunities, and call for papers related to Liberationtech from all over the world. It's not a comprehensive list, so your assistance would be helpful. If you hear of a job, event, or cfp that would be of benefit to Liberationtech subscribers, please let us know. Finally, we want to take Liberationtech to the next level. What that means, we don't know. But the world has changed a lot since we started back in 2008: Censorship is on the rise.

So if you have ideas of projects you would like to see us take on, please let us know. We want the Liberationtech community to drive the process. Any idea is welcome. Dream big or small. Just let us know how you think we can best help. Thanks, Yosem (One of the moderators) -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Great LIS Teacher Superannuates today
by Rathina Sabapathy 31 Jan '17

31 Jan '17

Dear LIS Professionals, An Outstanding Academician, an ardent Researcher and a World Class Professional in LIS is superannuating today. I need not say it s none other than Prof.A.Amudhavalli, the HoD of Dept. of LIS, University of Madras. Madam is known for her upright honesty, academic integrity and she has contributed enormously for the development of quality LIS profession. Many students who were guided by this strict Disciplinarian is leading many university and R&D libraries across the globe. Today, Madam is superannuating. Though the University rules permit the teacher to continue service till the end of the academic year, Madam is willing to retire today. No Professor will lose six months service which will bring a big money by means of lucrative salary. But, again Madam has put her mark here. To attend Intl/Natl conferences, I have travelled widely across the country including few abroad universities. Wherever I go, I was respected by the LIS professionals once they came to know that I am a student of Prof.A.Amudhavalli. The University of Madras is organising a get-together today at 3.00 p.m. at DLIS to wish Prof.A.Amudhavalli. I request our LIS fraternity to wish Madam either in person or by other means. There is no doubt a great and visionary LIS teacher and researcher is superannuating from the world renowned University of Madras. But, we, the LIS professionals will always look forward to the kind guidance of Madam in future as well. May God Bless Madam Prof.Amudhavalli a long, happy, healthy and peaceful retired life. -- Thanking you, Yours sincerely, Dr.G.

There is already course material available for post sslc/puc joc. May be you can look at it. Sent from RediffmailNG on Android From: Usha Mukunda <usha.mukunda(a)gmail.com> Sent: Mon, 30 Jan 2017 20:15:23 To: lis-forum <lis-forum(a)ncsi.iisc.ernet.in> Subject: [LIS-Forum] A six-month online course for school librarians. I would like to share this link with my colleagues on Lis -forum. http://libraryeducators.in/lec-english-2017/ A large number of people working with children in school and community libraries do not seem to have a focused and in-depth awareness in this specialised field. Therefore my colleagues and I who have worked for many years in school and community libraries have devised this course. Please read the link for more details and suggest to anyone who is interested in deepening their commitment to working with children and young people. Thank you.
