Apart from above there may be other important benefits of such initiatives. I request to all the publishers and eminent professionals to think about it.

Dear Vinod, I too agree with your opinion, having a “journal on Open Access solutions library and information science” it’s only one of best way to encourage the OSS movement. As the journal meant for, include all the topics of OSS i.e OSS links for software download, installation, customization and trouble shooting etc. Every year number of work shops are conducted on this particularly by different renowned organizations like IISC, DRTC, NISCAIR but it is very difficult for every one to attend the workshops due to remoteness, economic problems etc., and though who are working around remote areas of India and it is one of the possible way to promote OSS movement. My suggestion is, the organizations like your are working and the above mention with collaboration will take a imitative then it would be very helpful for all the community. Thanking you, With regards, M. Mani kumar Library Information Assistant IBS – Bangalore.
