Abstract: The paper contains the substantial implication of the changing web as “web 2.0” for libraries and recognizes that while these implications keep very close to the history and mission of libraries. It describes the theory and definition to the practices of librarianship, specially addressing how RSS feed (popular tool of Web 2.0 technologies) might make changes in libraries provide access to their collection and user support for accessing the same. RSS aggregator applications installed in a library system, and coupled with the social network of the library, will enable users to have a single, customized personal library page that syndicates all the library content of interest to them and their research, elimination of irrelevant information. It also highlights the Download and installation of RSS reader software along with the activation process. Lastly, it provides the list of resources (both software & services) and libraries using these tools. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/1944/1157 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: Libraries are using cutting edge item level RFID technology in a closed loop system. Today, more and more libraries are adopting RFID as it streamlines workflow in the area of self service, book returns, shelf management and inventory. The potential benefits of using RFID in libraries from the perspective of its main stake holders- the organization; library staff and its patrons shall be highlighted. The paper discusses underline NCIP standards development, practical issues related to RFID working in a library environment and touch upon basic RFID issues concerning equipment maintenance & support; software compatibility; privacy and standardization. Real potential of RFID as a cross-institution platform for identification will be limited by use of proprietary RFID systems and hence recommends system integrators, vendors and libraries to adopt standards & follow best practices guidelines issued by NISO for use of RFID in Libraries.

Abstract: Building an Institutional Repository has twin objectives. It servers as a digital archive of the total research output created by the academic community of an institute. It makes freely accessible over the internet this intellectual output to all those who are interested in it, thereby promoting the knowledge development. TIFR too is therefore planning to build its Institutional Repository and as a prelude to this has undertaken a pilot project. This paper discusses some of the details of this initiative.

Abstract: The advent of Information and Communication Technologies and Impact of Information explosion have brought many changes in diverse field of knowledge, especially in medical sciences which had profound impact on medical professionals, practitioners, students in pursuing their research and patient care. The medical professionals require pinpointed, accurate and speedy information for updating their knowledge. Due to the elasticity of budgets and hike of journals and books prices every year, keeping in view of user needs , libraries are forced to join a consortium.

Abstract: The enforcement of change happening in the knowledge creation and information management force to traditional library becomes a digital/ hybrid library (Yadav and Chidambaram, 2008). There are a number of university and institutional libraries, which are in the process of conversion of traditional library system into modern digital library systems. The credit for this movement is gone to Open Source Digital Library Software (OSDLS). Due to the OSDLS, digital library planning and development in practice has been increased in the world. The university library of Baba Farid University of Health Sciences (BFUHS) has also started digital library initiative and development of the Health Sciences Digital Library (HSDL) using open source Greenstone Digital Library Software (GSDL). The objective of this article is to give the analogy of road map for the plan and development of HSDL. It also narrates the digital library activities carried out in BFUHS university library.

Shind, Ganapathi (INFLIBNET Centre, November 6, 2008)[more][less]
Abstract: Institutional repositories emerged as a new strategy that allows universities and research institutions to apply serious, systematic leverage to accelerate changes taking place in scholarship and scholarly communication through the digital content. The increased demand for scholarly information, especially in science and technology demands scholarly societies and universities for centralized access to institutional rich resources revealing the scientific output. Digital publishing, global networking, more research, and increased communication among communities of scholars are driving the demand for broader access. The paper explores the essence of developing Institutional Repositories as a hidden treasure to the academic and research community providing its conceptual development. Further, mentions the issues to be considered before developing institutional repository in the form policy documentation on the part of the institution. The initiatives undertaken by the Academic and Research Libraries in India towards building Institutional Repositories have also been highlighted.

The purpose of this paper is to document UNISWA Library experiences in developing its Institutional Repository. It will also describes how UNISWA Library planned to set up its institutional repository. The main aim is to create a permanent record of the institution’s scholarly output in digital format, and to make the Repository globally and openly accessible.

Abstract: The Institutional Repositories (IR) is a very powerful idea that can serve as an engine of change for any Institution. In this digital age, everyone wants contents and to be successful information service providers. So, Information Center and Libraries needs to develop services in such a way so that the end users may manipulate the content, as per their requirements. Therefore, in the present scenario, IR’s are become an indispensable component for information and knowledge sharing in the scholar world. IR provides a method for capturing and maintaining today’s electronic detritus so that tomorrow’s scholars can understand the thinking behind the published record. Again, for the standard IRs each and every institution should have to equip its library professionals so that they can be able to cope up with the ever-growing changes in this part. In view of the above, this paper tries to explore the contents of IRs and skill requirement for the implantations of the successful Institutional Repository. The paper also discusses the benefits, standard, sustainability & funding, legal considerations to some extents. In addition with this the paper also tries to present the Indian current scenario of the IR. Authors have also discussed about the software’s that are easily available to create and maintain in institutional repositories i.e. Open Source Software and Commercial Digital Repository Software. Further, brief about the current Indian scenario of IR and Failure of IR also discussed in brief. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/1944/1145 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: Mashup is one of the many new phenomena in the Web 2.0 environment. They are largely experimental, but some of them are very useful, well-designed and very popular. Google Maps is the most popular component of Mashups. Amazon, Yahoo! Maps, and photo-sharing site Flickr are also a source for many of the sites. The libraries have been well adapting to the emerging technologies to integrate contents and services in order to provide innovative services to the users. The paper defines Mashup and discusses its various aspects with specific reference to the libraries. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/1944/1165 Files in this item: 1
