Friday musings of LibrarianRaj on BRICS, Mind and Net Access by Rural India: April 15, 2011

Friday musings of LibrarianRaj on BRICS, Mind and Net Access by Rural India:
April 15, 2011
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Friday musings of LbnRaj : April 15, 2011
1.      Times of India editorial asserts that the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, 
India, China and South Africa) is clearly an association in the making . 
Ya good it is in the making … many things in their beginnings would 
be such that people at large even hesitate to acknowledge the 
beginning. To me it is not the beginning or making …. It is the 
great beginning and a great making. Frank Wisner says that there is 
no political connectivity between BRIC powers ….. so what ….. 
mutual interests make strong connectivity's. Let us watch and see 
…. How this force falsify all tall reservations of experts and politicians.
2.      TOI editorial says …. "Net access could transform
rural India…"  Any thing that is in the making raise doubts of every one …
.. IT intrusion in the rural India will bring to the fore 
the un intentional ….. not thought of alternative for development. A true 
democracy may be kindled by this so called IT Intrusion. Believe me.  
Librarians have a lot to do in this regard …. Let us watch 
and see how they show their indispensability.
3.      Shri Shri Nimishananda on the Purpose 
of Mind : "Allow others  the freedom to be as they are, without 
imposing your mindset of thoughts and ideas.  Have faith and belief
that God is in you.  Spend some time quietly everyday thinking about your
inner self and chanting the name of God.  This way our mind which seeks 
information can be changed into a mind meant for the transformation of o
ur very life itself from human to Divine" (Times of India, Speaking Tree, 
April 15, 2011)

Heart and Healing, "Live your life from your heart.  Share from your heart.  And your story will touch and heal people's souls" – Melody Beattie (Heart of Healing : Sacred Space, Times of India, April 8, 2011)

 

Every one knows this. Every one realizes this, when some one works from heart one feels elated and light and most likely whether one fails or passes …. he does not either repent or be over joyous,,, one will just be happy and contented. Feelings of let every one be happy ….let every one be as good as and as fair as we are. Librarians let us work from our hearts ….. the readers would appreciate us from their hearts. Let us disseminate information with a personal note and touch. What we do with this way from our hearts has no parallel. Basically every one works from ones heart …..it is only the undesirable learning and training that at times makes us not to work from our hearts.  And the more they are happy more we will be.  LbnRaj ; lotus5673@yahoo.co.in ; http://indialibrarian-intl.blogspot.com ;

Subject: hi
sorry, I haven't kept in touch with you more, but FB never seems to show me your interesting posts. I wish I could make it so I could see your posts more easily but once I start clicking on your page maybe it will come up more.
I've been very busy in school, nursing school for practical nursing for the last 1.5 years, so haven't had much time to write much or do much outside of school, study and work part time.
I will graduate in Dec, God willing.
My 26 yr old son is in Calgary, Alberta. He went out to do construction but it didn't work out well for him b/c his boss suffered a serious depression and never went to work for 2 months, so my son is returning home today. It is about 6000 km away. Since he is out of money, he plans to hithhike home. Temp is about 5C during the day. He plans to go to a truck stop and get a long ride with some truckers. I hope it works out for him.
I see you are a lib for a School of Business Management. I know you've been a lib for a long time but I didn't know you had this position. Is it a relatively new one for you or was I just not aware?
What is new with you and your family?
Well I must go now.
Take care.
Esther

Copyright Clearance Center Launches Get It Now for Academic Institutions


Copyright Clearance Center, Inc. (CCC), a not-for-profit organization and provider of licensing solutions, announced the launch of Get It Now. The service complements academic institutions' interlibrary loan (ILL) borrowing services by providing immediate fulfillment of full-text articles from unsubscribed journals 24 hours a day, 7 days a week through a single, cost-effective, and easy-to-use application, integrated directly into a user's workflow.


Get It Now was developed with the participation of The California State University system and the Information Delivery Services (IDS) Project at The State University of New York at Geneseo. It includes content from leading journal publishers, including Elsevier, John Wiley & Sons, Wolters Kluwer, Nature Publishing Group, and the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO). Additional publishers are being added on an ongoing basis.


If patrons wish to read articles from a journal not currently subscribed to by their institution's library, they can either choose to borrow the articles via traditional ILL or click the Get It Now link within their search results and have the content emailed to them. Average turnaround time for Get It Now articles is less than five minutes. According to a recent study in the journal College and Research Libraries, the average time for a traditional ILL delivery is between five and seven days. Get It Now delivers high-quality, accessible, full-color PDFs of journal content in minutes. It eliminates the need for credit card transactions by offering monthly institutional invoicing and has several safeguards in place to prevent misuse. Get It Now can also be accessed by librarians via an "Addon" in OCLC's ILLiad application.


Get It Now supplements CCC's Annual Copyright License for Academic Institutions, allowing institutions that hold the license to obtain content through the Get It Now service and share it internally in many ways, including email, postings to e-reserves and course management systems, inclusion in coursepacks or for classroom handouts and scholarly research.

What say I have on Success, Digital Divide and Proposed ban on Josheph Lelyveld’s book on Mahatma Gandhi …. LibrarianRaj responds : April 6, 2011

What say I have on Success,  Digital Divide and Proposed ban on Josheph  Lelyveld's book on Mahatma Gandhi …. I respond : April 6, 2011
1.      I fully agree with Sukhabodhananda when he says …."irrespective of the best effort one puts in, you have to face both success and failure at different times."  Yes success and failures are part and parcel of our lives. We need to accept failures honestly …. to realize the importance of succeeding. One who has not failed … it is said has never passed.
2.       A new lesson for Librarians on Digital Divide : Digital divide has new avtar now with Russia's next president's advice on keeping abreast on people's aspirations and feelings. A whopping $220 will have to be shelled out for a project that intends to compile all the information that is elicited by common man in Russia by way of blogs and social networking sits. It is indeed a path breaking direction. Every one … every country in this regard will fall in line one day or the other … sooner or later. What do librarians learn out of this?
3.      Joseph Lelyveld's book on Mahatma has created one more furore. When do we become little tolerant of honest and artistic expressions of  creative people?

# 2. KALA Monthly Lectures Series - Talk on "Intellectual Property Rights", Babu Rajendra, Rajendra.Babu@capco.com

Dear LIS Professionals,

Karnataka State Library Association (KALA) is happy to invite you to the Monthly Lecture Series.

The third talk of the series has been scheduled on Tuesday, 5th April 2011 @6.00pm at the following Address:

Sarada Ranganathan Endowment for Library Science (SRELS)
# 702, 'Upstairs', 42nd Cross, III Block
Rajajinagar, Bangalore - 560 010

Title: Intellectual Property Rights (Patent, Copyright).

Speaker: Bindu Sharma, Founding partner and CEO, Origiin IP Solutions LLP, Bangalore, India.

Abstract:
The term "Intellectual Property" basically means "creation of mind" such as machine, process, design etc with creative or useful output. IP, due to its intangible nature, gets protection under law as patent, copyright, trademark; industrial design etc provided it fulfils basic requirements for protection as prescribed by the legislation. On one hand, IP if protected and exploited sensibly is a valuable asset and can fetch great revenues but on the other hand infringement of third party's IP with or without knowledge can be disastrous. Therefore, need of the hour is to get oneself aware on various aspects of IPR so that it can be used as a tool to generate revenues.

About The Speaker:
Bindu Sharma has eight years of research experience working in reputed institutes of the country such as National Bureau of Plant Genetic Resources (NBPGR), New Delhi, Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore and Jubilant Biosys (P) Ltd., Bangalore. She founded Origiin IP Solutions in the year 2006 and has been handling work such as various patent searches, Patent drafting, filing and prosecution at IPO and PCT, office actions including opposition and revocation petitions, drafting agreements relating transfer of technology, registration of copyright, trademark, conducting IP Audit, framing IP Policies and processes etc for knowledge based companies and academics.

She has been speaker in several conferences, symposiums and has conducted various awareness workshops on IPR for academics as well as corporates. She is visiting faculty in many reputed colleges in India.

She is a Registered Patent Agent at Indian Patent Office, Enrolled as Advocate in Karnataka State Bar Council .

Please confirm your participation.

Rajendra Babu H

# 4. FYI | The Long-Term Benefits of the Open Access Scholarly Publishing Model, Pralhad Jadhav, pralhadsha@yahoo.com

The Long-Term Benefits of the Open Access Scholarly Publishing Model

John W. Houghton, Centre for Strategic Economic Studies, Victoria University, Australia, recently published The costs and potential benefits of alternative scholarly publishing models.

Link for the Article | http://informationr.net/ir/16-1/paper469.html

From the Abstract |

Analysis. We examine the costs and potential benefits of the major alternative models for scholarly publishing, including subscription publishing, open access publishing and self-archiving. Adopting a formal approach to modelling the scholarly communication process and identifying activity costs, this paper presents activity and system-wide costs for each of the alternative publishing models. It then explores the potential impacts of enhanced access on returns to R&D.

Results. We find that different scholarly publishing models could make a material difference to the costs faced by various parties and to the returns on investment in R&D that might be realised.

Conclusion. It seems likely that more open access could have substantial benefits in the longer term. While the benefits may be lower during a transitional period they would be likely to be positive for both open access publishing and self-archiving alternatives.

Serials Solutions to Enable Full-Text Search of the HathiTrust Collection


Serials Solutions, a Seattle-based company that helps libraries manage services and resources through technology, announced today that it has partnered with HathiTrust to enable full-text searching of HathiTrust's digitized works.


"We look at this agreement as the next level (in the library search experience)," said Michael Gersch, senior VP and general manager of Serials Solutions in an interview with TechFlash. "All the books available in the library just come to life now because you can search on the full text."


HathiTrust was founded in 2008 by a community of research libraries looking to preserve the cultural record by curating and digitizing library collections. The agreement will open HathiTrust's collection – currently 8.4 million volumes – to patrons at libraries using Serials Solutions' Summon, a web-scale search service.

"It's further transforming the search experience by taking the search from the physical space and into the digital space," said Gersch. He used the example of a patron looking for a particular quote – say, "a rose by any other name would smell as sweet," – but who couldn't remember the author (Shakespeare). In the past, the patron would be limited by a traditional library search – author, title, keyword – but by accessing HathiTrust through Summon, they can search on the full text, he said.


Gersch sees the true value of the agreement as deepening the search experience for researchers in an academic setting. "The full text is what a lot of people want to search when doing deep research," he said. "(Accessing HathiTrust) will really accelerate the process and allow people to do research and deep analysis in a much more efficient way."


Currently, Serials Solutions works primarily with libraries in the global academic world, though local clients include the UW, Seattle Pacific University, WSU and the Seattle library system. Those using Summon will be able to access HathiTrust's collection by summer 2011.


Serials Solutions was created in 2000, "born from a librarian who saw the need to have solutions to help librarians deal with technology," said Gersch. The company, which was acquired by ProQuest in 2004, created a suite of products to help libraries manage information and holdings.


18 months ago, the company launched Summon, a Saas search engine that offers a browsing experience similar to what users have become accustomed to with Bing and Google, said Gersch.


"It started making the library relevant again," he said. Libraries can choose the information patrons can access, including that from the open web.


Gersch said he couldn't disclose the financial impact of the deal, but said that over 200 customers use the Summon service.

Subject: LinkedIn Infographic

Hello Rajshekhar!

Kate here, and we've created an interesting infographic that I think you
might enjoy.  There's not a business professional that doesn't know about
LinkedIn, but just exactly how big is it?  Would you believe that the number
of members makes it 5 times the population of NYC?  Yea, it amazed me too
when I found that out.  You can check it out here:

mashable.com/2011/03/24/linkedin-overview-infographic/

Anyways, just thought this might be of interest to you.  If you'd like
other infographics such as these, or if you also have an infographic you
think I'd might like, let me know!

Thanks,

Kate
