Dear Fellow Professionals, The intention of the model proposed by Dr. Barman to share the electronic resources through DDS may be good. It may help hundreds of libraries and their thousands of clients in obtaining the required information. But, when we look it from the perspective of the copyright, the model carries an enormous risk. Being knowledge managers, we the librarians are expected to educate others on the issues related to the copyright. We should not indulge in violation of this right. It's good if we start working collectively on creating and strengthening the Union Catalogue of Online Resources as suggested by Dr. G. K. Manjunath of IGIDR, Mumbai. With best, *Anand Dodamani Asst.

Sharing licensed content should be dealt with care.it's not the same case when somebody emails the requested document to some person when a article/document request comes in LIS Forum/s.Sharing licensed content in an informal way will not cause much problems.But when it appears in a formal manner like that one envisioned by Dr.Badan,its a bit complicated. I think Dr.Badan Burman will soon fell into a copyright infringement case if a complaint is filed about the Lis Link DDS.I dont know whether the DDS members will also receive legal notices.Publishers argue that library exceptions for interlibrary loan and document delivery in the digital environment, particularly of individual journal articles, are justified only in very limited circumstances and with the permission of publishers.i request my colleagues to read the content of the following link and comment on this matter
