by Vasanth 30 Oct '13

30 Oct '13

Dear Sir/Madam, As a part of Open Access Week-2013, Mysore Librarians and Information Scietintists Association (R), MyLISA, Mysore was organized the special lecture. This is the brief report of the special lecture. Mr. L.J. Haravu, UNESCO Expert on implementation of technology base library services in South East Asia and Arab Countries, gave a special lecture on this occasion on the theme of “Open Access: The Philosophy and Trends” at the SBRR Mahajana First Grade College, Mysore on 26th October 2013. L. J. Haravu started his lecture by citing some of the historical, cultural and social movements that have altered the human civilization in great deal. He pointed out that people movements have started because of some fundamental causes that hindered the human freedom and aspirations of common people. The fundamental changes that occurred because of social, cultural, historical and scientific movements was bring in new legislations, regulations and reforms, he said. Continuing his lecture he said that movements have by-products or spin-offs. 1950 and 60s India witnessed a library movements in a big way, as a part of this there were movements in the areas of classification and indexing, thesaurus building. Now we have been witnessing a new kind of movements in the field of library automation, digitization, open source software adaptation, etc. While speaking on the philosophy behind OA movements, L.J. Haravu highlighted some of the major breakthrough in scholarly publishing domain which played crucial role in spreading OA movements. Some of the major changes in scholarly publishing domain that led to OA movements were: increase emphasize for publishing research papers (publish or perish syndrome), rapid increase in scholarly publications, rise in subscription cost of scholarly journals (200% to 250% of increase in the last 25 years), dwindling library budget on the other hand, deprived of access to research materials, publishers monopoly. Because of some of these reasons, stakeholders involved in scholarly publications (academicians, scientists, librarians, activists, (who are vocal about OA) contemplated for starting OA movement. The developments in contemporary technologies (Internet) provided them a great platform to provide access to information easily like never before. OA movement was formally launched in 3 international meetings in 2002-03, in Budapest, Bethesda and Berlin, he said. He said that there were two major rubrics of OA publishing models. One is OAJs (Open Access Journals) and another model is OAA (Open Access Archiving). He cited some of the examples for OAJs: Public Library of Science (PLoS), Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ). For open access archiving major institutional repositories and OAIster. Because of OA movement, today we have, open courseware (MIT Open Courseware), open educational resources, open theses, open data and open source films, he said. L. J. Haravu mentioned some of the barriers for open access, such as business model of OAJ publishers, emergence of predatory OA journals, authors reluctance for publishing their research papers in OA journals. He urged the librarians to play active role in creating awareness and educate academicians/executives about the importance of OA. He also urged the librarians to play crucial role in establishing institutional repositories in their respective intuitions and adopting OA mandate. On this gracious occasion MyLISA felicitated Mrs. Asha P., Mr. Vijaynag and Mr. Shivakumar for having cleared the National Eligibility Test (NET), conducted by the University Grant Commission (UGC) in June 2013. Library professionals from Bangalore, staff of SBRR Mahajana College and MyLISA office bearers and members in large numbers attended the event.
