We bring you IGNITE on Librarians' Day
by Segon, Shafina 12 Aug '15

12 Aug '15

Dear all, Please click on the link to access the latest issue of the IGNITE newsletter, specially created for Librarians' in South Asia: http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/explore/ignite-issue7-july-2015.pdf. If you are interested in contributing to Ignite, Please write to me. The Ignite team wishes all the knowledge leaders a very happy Librarians' day 2015. At every forum that we visit today, there is a discussion on the Future of Librarianship in India. As academic libraries increasingly dwell on this topic, it is clear that libraries are at the centre of a whirlwind of change in higher education - a perfect storm unleashed by a combination of university administrative mandates for efficiency driven by cost constraints, expanding faculty and student expectations for access to unique resources delivered via a growing range of technologies, and an explosion of data and information in a highly connected digital world. At Taylor & Francis, we recognize that the dramatic changes in society, exponential advances in technology and globalization of 'everything' indicate that 21st century librarianship MUST BE drastically different. The 21st century Librarian is a professional who understands the Millennial library customer, embraces the potential of technology, creatively finds appropriate ways to implement it into library services, and has more diverse - even 'unconventional' - skills than ever before. In this special Librarians' Day issue of Ignite, we bring to you, the changing landscape of library & information science education in India by Dr. Akhilesh Yadav as he interviews the UGC Emeritus fellow and former professor, Dr. R.S.R. Varalakshmi. With growing environmental consciousness across the globe, it is only befitting to talk about Green Libraries, a much awaited initiative by Dr. Bhardwaj, librarian, Fore School of Management. The Taylor & Francis India Managing Director, Nitasha Devasar, discusses in this issue the challenges of everyday leadership explaining how it is ultimately the small everyday things that show a leader's true mettle. Do you know who the 17 most famous librarians of all time are? We didn't either, until we compiled the list and yes, Dr. Ranganathan features in the list too! Travel with us to some new libraries around the world that look like alien spaceships with daring experimental architecture coupled with technological excellence. All this and more in the 7th issue of Ignite to celebrate the Librarians' Day with you. As always, we welcome your submissions and suggestions to make Ignite better and more relevant to you. So, read through with a cup of hot coffee and enjoy.
