Who is Responsible...............
Since long we have been witnessing and subsequently discussing regarding the downfall trend of LIS profession and professionals. Despite of blessed with ICT tools, LIS profession is not able to cope up with need of the users coming from the cross-sections of the society. Every next second we are getting a new e-query regarding very basic services supposed to be performed by the person in charge. What are the reasons of this situation that every new recruitee is find him in a soup and try to make every best possible effort to find out the answers of very basic nature questions? The reason may be any one of the following……………
1. LIS Curricula is not updated enough so that a student can have the latest and up-to-date knowledge of practical environment.
2. Do the learned faculties are not getting required time and proper infrastructures to keep update themselves?
3. Are the students now a days are interested only to getting a degree by using any of the means so that they can decorate their C.V.s
4. Does the new entrants feared to take challenges and not capable to convert their theoretical knowledge in practical terms?
5. Does the govt is only interested only in framing the hard core policies and setting up certain working groups to evaluate the situation?
6. What are the major roles of reputed Associations in this profession are they just limiting themselves by organizing seminars and workshops from time to time.
In the light of above queries, who is responsible for this downfall………
1. Educators
2. Students
3. Curriculum
4. Govt.
5. Associations
My dear friends, I just want to clarify myself as these questions are haunting my mind since long.

Teachers have a very special place in the society. They have the instinct to recognize talent and nurture it. They are the creators of responsible citizens, who contribute to the society in one way or the other. Students, especially the small children, often consider their favorite teacher as the perfect person on earth.
Teachers are considered the mentors, who not only guide a person academically, but also instill moral and ethical values in him/her.
Celebrations are parts of every type of relationship. When it comes to teacher and student, Teacher's Day becomes the golden opportunity for both of them, to honor their unique bond and also appreciates teaching and the people who have opted for the profession. It is a day, when students approach their teachers and extend their sincere gratitude to them. It is the time to pay tribute to them, who have shaped up our career and imparted knowledge to their students, not just to excel academically, but also to develop their personality. I would like to offer my gratitude towards teaching community in following words---
God understood our thirst for
Knowledge, And Our Need To Be Led
By someone wiser;
He needed a heart of compassion,
Of encouragement, and patience;
Someone who would accept
The Challenge Regardless Of The
Opposition;
Someone who could see potential
And believe in the best in others . . .
So he made teachers

Knowledge and Innovativeness ..... book review by Rajashekhar Devarai
Reprint
KNOWLEDGE AND INNOVATION FOR COMPETITIVENESS IN BRAZIL By Alberto Rodriguez with Carl Dahlman and Jamil Salmi .- Washington D.C : The World Bank .- 2008, pp. 247, Rs.1112.00
“Knowledge will forever govern ignorance; and a people who mean to be their own governors must arm themselves with the power which knowledge gives”. – James Madison.
The growth and equity have engaged the global intelligentsia through out the history of mankind culminating into major issues, schools theories and perspectives. The third dimension i.e., The Knowledge Dimension (more often spelt out as knowledge and innovation dimension) explicitly stated as a growth driver, a decade ago or so is triggering for a paradigm shift in our thinking. “Knowledge and Innovation for Competitiveness in Brazil” stands out as a timely addition. The work is authored by Alberto Rodriguez, Lead Education Specialist in Human Department for Latin America and the Caribbean Region (LAC) with Carl Dahlman of Georgetown University and Jamil Salmi of the World Bank’s Human Development Network. The ‘Knowledge Dimension of Economic Development is indeed acknowledged in all quarters, ranks and files. This World Bank instituted study is quite timely as a bench mark for Middle Income Countries like Brazil, Russia, India and China (BRIC). Brazil as a country, eighth largest by population and 5th largest by territory, despite its positive initiatives on debt and inflation management and its much acclaimed glory period of 1960-1980 (known as Brazilian Miracle), as a matter of fact averaged only 2.5 percent per annum over the last 10 years., which is about only half the pace of India and China.
The report acknowledges Brazils’ initiatives to halt hyper inflation and pay down external debts. Though this helped Brazil stabilize its economy for sometime, in the long run Brazil missed out on the front of development and growth. The study used an analytical framework developed by World Bank Institute under the K4D (Knowledge For Development) initiative of the Bank, for evaluating countries’ readiness to successfully integrate into the global knowledge economy. The report beginning with an executive summary is spread out in eight chapters suffixed with approximately stuffed appendices. The report strongly recommends Brazil to undertake a broad systemic reform process for increasing the competitiveness of its economy and to accelerate growth. The specific recommendations depicting, ‘Who Needs To Do What’, are brought out in the chapter on “From Analysis to Action”.
This study on Brazil proposes concrete actions in 6 key areas viz., the Enabling Environment, Knowledge Creation and Commercialization, Acquisition of Foreign Knowledge, Leveraging and Dissemination of Technology use, Basic Education and Skills and Tertiary education. The report briefly outlines Brazil’s trails and concerns to raise its living standards and the much desired course of actions charted out by the authors and the World Bank Team, to bring Brazil to innovation ready level. It indeed is a testimony for all Middle Income and Low Income nations to tighten their belts and get ready to reap the multiplier effect of Knowledge and Innovation initiatives to help play their respective roles in Global Knowledge Economy and Society. It is an event indeed to note that, roughly a month after the publication of this report, the World Bank announced four year US $ 7 billion Country Partnership Strategy (CPS). This country Partnership Strategy would go a long way in addressing the recommendation and guidelines pronounced in the report. What is lacking in the study is its total neglect on the front of Environment and
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Reprint
sustainability with reference to growth and development. Never the less, the contents, policy guidelines and development imperatives spelt out in the report are useful to all policy makers, academics , researchers, business people and all others concerned world over. Academically speaking, the report fills the gap in research with regard to relations between micro economic inputs such as Health and Education and Macro Economic outputs such as Growth and Development in the domains of Global Political Economy. The Knowledge Initiative (so emphatically pursued in this bench marking report) by and large continues to percolate continuously into micro and macro issues and concerns of human life and society locally and globally. Let this review be concluded with the authors own words, “We hope that this volume will contribute to Brazil’s efforts to analyze its strengths and weaknesses and chart an effective way forward, for itself and for other middle-income nations. In taking on this challenge, Brazil leads the way from many countries that might also benefit from a close examination of their capacity to innovate and compete.”
