started out with a quick intro on wordpress themes (I should have included how a widget works in the slides but I did discuss that which you can see in the video) then later went into something new and fresh: Facebook Connect. This tech enables you to allow your readers to login to your wordpress site using their Facebook login info. The plugin I finally settled with was the one developed by sixjumps which took the basics of just authenticating with wordpress to a new level. With this you can leave a comment on the blog and allow the comment to be sent over to facebook. You can also share links from the site to facebook with ease and lastly be able to see who else is using the site from facebook. Pretty cool stuff to be totally honest.
Later I went into some plugins to connect wordpress with Twitter: TwitterTools by Alex King, TwitMe by Johnny Mast and Tweetbacks by Joost de Valk. I love Alex and Joost's work and their plugins kick some serious ass. TwitMe and its dev are new to me but there are some great features he put into that plugin. Lastly I discussed sharing posts with friends using using Joost's plugin Sociable and ShareThis.
One thing I learned with this is the power of the masses... If your doing a presentation on social media or new media, get your audience involved by asking them to get their friends involved. At the beginning of the demo I put a tinyurl link up on the screen and asked everyone to hop on twitter and send that link out to as a tweet so we can get some people in the chatroom.
When moving to the WordPress platform, the hosting decision is the most critical step. Where you host your site sets the stage for your web site's design and development. It also determines how much direct control you have over your site's security, operations, and backups. This presentation compares and contrasts "manage" WP hosting with "self-hosted" WP hosting.

Information Literacy is the vital process in the modern changing world which is mostly used for higher education/scholars particularly. In our information-centric world, users must develop skills early on so they are prepared for post-secondary opportunities. Information literacy “enables people to interpret and make informed judgments as users of information sources, as well as to become producers of information in their own right. Information literacy means information awakening in person about the needed information. Information literate people are able to access information about their health, their environment, their education and work, empowering them to make critical decisions about their lives.
With this scenario, my work is to find out the actual picture in present time, Information Literacy Programmes held in the Scientific Institutes of Kolkata.
My work, data has been presented in cylinder column.
At the end of this study, references are given followed by APA style manual 6th edition 2010, and bibliography has been prepared in numeric sequence.
The present society is considered an information society. A society where the creation, distribution, use, integration, and manipulation of digital information have become the most significant activity in all aspects. Information is producing from every sector of any society, which has resulted in an information explosion. Modern technologies are also having a huge impact. So managing this voluminous information is really a tough job. Again WWW has opened the door to connect anyone or anything within a fraction of a second. This study discussed the Semantic Web and linked data technologies and their effect and application to libraries for the handling of various types of resources.

Modern environment is a rapidly changing environment. Through the internet, everything is transmitting into its newer form according to the dynamic demand. Instead of using traditional print media, people are using various newer e-media not limited to a certain boundary to become informative. These sea changes turn the way of getting information on education and employment system into dynamic ways. Blogs are one of the finest way for providing information now a days. In this paper, various news on education and employment in the field of library and information science publishing from different blogs in India is figured out.
Management is a very important part of any governing body whether it is a school, college, institute or university and to managing information is a very tough job for any organisation/ institution. The same way, managing information in the library is also considered as an important duty. Being a library professional, one has to manage their staff, administration, office, higher authority and the most important, its resources. This paper discusses an overview of managing digital information through various tools. The available tools are required to manage various types of information today and also current trends of managing digital information/ resources. The main purpose of this paper is to highlight the tool - Subjects Plus as a digital information management tool and its features, the workflow, implementation, customisation and application of Subjects Plus in Biju Patnaik Central Library, National Institute of Technology, Rourkela.

It’s possible both in Windows OS and in Linux OS. LiteCam is the recording software for recording screen in Windows and Simple Screen Recorder is a software for recording screen in Linux.
A Conference Paper presented at National Conference on Library and Infomation Management in Digital Environment, JILACON'17 by Jharkhand Information and Library Association, Ranchi held on 23-24th February 2017.
Library generally means a place where several types of resources are stored in an organised way and made accessible to the community for reference or borrowing. A library can store resources in various formats like the earliest form which used clay tablets in the Sumerian civilisation at 2600 B.C. or as written books in the classical Greece period in the 5th century. After Gutenberg it changed to printed form like books, periodicals, newspapers, maps, prints, documents, manuscripts etc. to modern formats which includes microforms, cassettes, videotapes, films, CDs, DVDs, Blu-ray discs, e-books, audiobooks, databases and much more. Nowadays all library resources are available totally in the electronic mechanism
called digital content. Here we are going to discuss the creation, store, handle, and use the digital contents/objects.
In the present day, information is required in the same way as other necessities of life, i.e., food, clothing, shelter etc. In the field of teaching learning, scholarly writings considered as the most important, authentic and useful information. Printed materials like books, journals, newspapers are the traditional sources of getting information about anything. But day by day, usage of these sources are decreasing mildly as the users demand information very quick and in various file formats. In the academic formal education system writing assignments/ projects, doing research at a higher level is mandatory. Nowadays computers especially the internet acts as main medium for providing facilities to quench the thirst for knowledge from different sources. The open access solutions added the feature to access the full content. Google, WWW, Social Networking Sites and many different applications fulfill the sharing of resources to the wide masses. Where these modern technologies are resolving the need of information, side by side creating various new threats to the intellectual outputs. Plagiarism technically means to present others intellectual property as own without giving proper acknowledgment. This paper deals with the overview of plagiarism with its types, the cause of plagiarism, consequences, prevention and some tools for detecting plagiarism in this digital age.
Information repackaging is a process to repackage the analyzed, consolidate information in that form which is more suitable & usable for library users. Customization of information taking into account the needs and characteristics of the individual or user groups and matching them with the information to be provided so that diffusion of information occurs.
The present paper deals with the concept, need, types of
information literacy. Further it explores about the information literacy models, standards/frameworks, popular information literacy programmes and groups, and Information Literacy Programmes held in the Scientific Institutes of Kolkata.
This paper deals with the modern technologies used for proving services to the modern users. Modern users very need bases. They want much-pinpointed resources rather than a
full document. So libraries are also becoming modern information centres. The internet made this job very easy for the professionals for providing the on campus as well as from
outside for accessing the resources. Various tools are using for these purposes. DSpace is considered one of the KM tools.

In software engineering, the right architecture is essential for robust, scalable platforms. Wix has undergone a pivotal shift from event sourcing to a CRUD-based model for its microservices. This talk will chart the course of this pivotal journey.
Event sourcing, which records state changes as immutable events, provided robust auditing and "time travel" debugging for Wix Stores' microservices. Despite its benefits, the complexity it introduced in state management slowed development. Wix responded by adopting a simpler, unified CRUD model. This talk will explore the challenges of event sourcing and the advantages of Wix's new "CRUD on steroids" approach, which streamlines API integration and domain event management while preserving data integrity and system resilience.
Participants will gain valuable insights into Wix's strategies for ensuring atomicity in database updates and event production, as well as caching, materialization, and performance optimization techniques within a distributed system.
Join us to discover how Wix has mastered the art of balancing simplicity and extensibility, and learn how the re-adoption of the modest CRUD has turbocharged their development velocity, resilience, and scalability in a high-growth environment.

A website, also written as a website, is a collection of related web pages,
including multimedia content, typically identified with a common domain name,
and published on at least one web server. A website may be accessible via a
public Internet Protocol (IP) network, such as the Internet, or a private local area
network (LAN), by referencing a uniform resource locator (URL) that identifies
the site. All publicly accessible websites collectively constitute the World Wide
Web, while private websites are typically a part of an intranet.
Web pages, which are the building blocks of websites, are documents,
typically composed in plain text interspersed with formatting instructions of
Hypertext Markup Language (HTML, XHTML). They may incorporate elements
from other websites with suitable markup anchors. Web pages are accessed and
transported with the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), which may optionally
employ encryption (HTTP Secure, HTTPS) to provide security and privacy for the
user. The user's application, often a web browser, renders the page content
according to its HTML markup instructions onto a display terminal.
Hyperlinking between web pages conveys to the reader the site
structure and guides the navigation of the site, which often starts with a home
page containing a directory of the site web content. Some websites require user
registration or subscription to access content. Examples of subscription
websites include many business sites, parts of news websites, academic
journal websites, gaming websites, file-sharing websites, message boards, web-
based email, social networking websites, websites providing real-time stock
market data, as well as sites providing various other services.
Anybody can create a website and maintain many things. It may be some
company, a business organisation, an association, an educational institute, an
NGO, non-profit organisations or may be a personal website. These websites may
4. 4 | P a g e
contain various things according to the owner. It may be photos, videos, audios,
information or may be some links.
Now, designing these websites encompasses many different skills and
disciplines in the production and maintenance of websites. The different areas of
web design include web graphic design; interface; authoring, including
standardised code and proprietary software; user experience design; and search
engine optimisation. Often many individuals will work in teams covering
different aspects of the design process, although some designers will cover them
all. The term web design is normally used to describe the design process relating
to the front-end (client side) design of a website including writing mark up. Web
design partially overlaps web engineering in the broader scope of web
development. Web designers are expected to have an awareness of usability and
if their role involves creating mark up then they are also expected to be up to
date with web accessibility guidelines.
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows
individuals and organisations to make their website accessible via the World
Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server owned or
leased for use by clients, as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in
a data centre. Web hosts can also provide data centre space and connectivity to
the Internet for other servers located in their data centre, called colocation, also
known as Housing in Latin America or France.
You will find ‘n’ number of web hosting service provider providing
domain names in the Google. Two types of the domain name are there, free
domain host service provider and purchased domain name service provider.
Some hosting provides the both. The two basic differences are, free domain are
available with the low storage facility and an advertised URL name
(example.tripod.com). Whereas purchased domain names are available with
more storage space and on-demand URL name (example.com).

Here I have given about installation of Joomla in XAMPP in Windows in
offline mode. Before going to that, we have to know some basic things like;
About Joomla- Joomla is a free and open-source content management
system (CMS) for publishing web content. It is built on a model–view–
controller web application framework that can be used independently of the
CMS. Joomla is written in PHP, uses object-oriented programming (OOP)
techniques (since version 1.5) and software design patterns, stores data in
a MySQL, MS SQL (since version 2.5), or PostgreSQL (since version 3.0)
database, and includes features such as page caching, RSS feeds, printable
versions of pages, news flashes, blogs, search, and support for language
internationalization.
About XAMPP- XAMPP is a free and open source cross-platform web server
solution stack package developed by Apache Friends consisting mainly of the
Apache HTTP Server, MariaDB database, and interpreters for scripts written in
the PHP and Perl programming languages. XAMPP stands for Cross-Platform (X),
Apache (A), MariaDB (M), PHP (P) and Perl (P). It is a simple, lightweight Apache
distribution that makes it extremely easy for developers to create a local web
server for testing and deployment purposes. Everything needed to set up a web
server – server application (Apache), database (MariaDB), and scripting
language (PHP) – is included in an extractable file. XAMPP is also cross-platform,
which means it works equally well on Linux, Mac and Windows. Since most
actual web server deployments use the same components as XAMPP, it makes
transitioning from a local test server to a live server extremely easy as well.
6. 6 | P a g e
I have given enough information for well aware about all basic things for
installing Joomla in XAMPP. Now let’s see what are the materials required for
installing Joomla;
A computer system (laptop or desktop) with a Windows operating system
(preferably 32 bit). Other OS will also work but it may slow down your
system, so I prefer 32 bit OS.
The system must connect to the internet. To download the necessary files
system must be connected.
That’s it; these are enough to start the installation process.
7. 7 | P a g e
Download the XAMPP first from Apache Friends
(https://www.apachefriends.org/index.html). If possible, avoid the latest
version. It may slow down your system. See the below image.
I have marked the picture with some arrows to draw your attention.
Simply click on that and download the XAMPP. It may take some time depending
on the speed of the internet.
8. 8 | P a g e
After completing the download, open the download folder and install the
XAMPP. It will look like as the below picture.
After this, the XAMPP welcome page is opened. Just click on ‘next’.
9. 9 | P a g e
In the next window, it will ask the components to be installed by you with
XAMPP. Just put a tick mark on the boxes the minimum needed fields, that is-
‘server’, ‘Apache’, ‘MySQL’, ‘Program Languages’, ‘PHP’, ‘Program Languages’,
‘phpMyAdmin’ and then click ‘next’. See the below picture.
Then it will ask where to save the installed folder. Normally it will save in
C:Program filesxampp or in C:xampp. See the below picture.
Check
these
boxes
10. 10 | P a g e
The next window will ask to install the bitnami installer for the app. But it
is no need for us, so leave blank the tick box and click next. See the below
picture.
After clicking next the XAMPP will begin to be installed in your system.
Just wait for the completing of the process. After completing it will ask for
opening the control panel. Just put a tick mark on the check box and click the
finish. See the below pictures.
Installation of XAMPP ends here.
11. 11 | P a g e
Now you have to open the XAMPP from the control panel and start the
Apache and MySQL. Before that, you have known about these two. Apache is the
world's most used web server software. Originally based on the NCSA
HTTPd server, development of Apache began in early 1995 after work on the
NCSA code stalled. Apache played a key role in the initial growth of the World
Wide Web and MySQL is an open-source relational database management
system (RDBMS). Its name is combinations of “My”, the name of co-
founder Michael Widenius' daughter, and "SQL", the abbreviation for Structured
Query Language. The MySQL development project has made its source code
available under the terms of the GNU General Public License, as well as under a
variety of proprietary agreements. MySQL was owned and sponsored by a
single for-profit firm, the Swedish company MySQL AB, now owned by Oracle
Corporation. See the below pictures.
After starting both of them close it.
It will look
like this
12. 12 | P a g e
Now it’s time to download the Joomla from
https://www.joomla.org/download.html. It may take some time depending on
the speed of the internet. See the below picture.
It will download a zip file. Now extract the zip file. You can rename the file
(optional). Then copy and paste the file in the following path of your computer-
C:program filesxampphtdocs or C:xampphtdocs. See the below picture.
This step ends here.
13. 13 | P a g e
In this step, open a browser and open the URL named
‘localhost/phpmyadmin’. After opening the page, find the database tab at the top
menu. Click on that to create a new database. See the below picture.
The database name should be the same as the Joomla folder name pasted in
the htdocs folder.
14. 14 | P a g e
Open a browser or open a new tab in the same browser and type in the
URL area the following line ‘localhost/your_database_name’ in my case it is
Joomla, so I have typed localhost/Joomla and hit enter. The joomla opened and
ask to choose the language. Choose your language just like the below picture.
Then it will ask for some pre-requisite for your site such as, your site name
you want to give, your site description (optional), and a mail-id for
communication, a admin username and admin password, confirm password for
login and check that site offline button is on at left bottom and then click on next
button. See the below picture.
15. 15 | P a g e
Now configure the database. Here first confirm the database type is set
MySQL and the hostname is set localhost. Then give the username as root and
leave the password blank. Then give the database name as same as the Joomla
folder. Leave the table prefix as it is. Then click next. See the below picture.
Now finilise your site by installing sample data by clicking default English
(GB) sample data. See the below picture.
Now let’s have an overview on those set parameter.
16. 16 | P a g e
Check the main configuration and database configuration as the below
picture.
Check pre-installation and recommended setting as the below picture.
Now click on the install button at the top right.
17. 17 | P a g e
If you face some issue at this time like the installation stopped at a certain
stage and it looks like the below picture.
Then just use a trick by changing some words in a file. Just go to the
following path in your system
“C:xampphtdocsJoomlainstallationsqlmysql”. In the folder find a file
named ‘joomla.php’, open it in Notepad++ and find ‘InnoDB’. Replace all
‘InnoDB’ with ‘MyISAM’ in that file. If you don’t have notepad++ than open it in
simple notepad file and cut and paste the code in a word file. Then find ‘InnoDB’.
Replace all ‘InnoDB’ with ‘MyISAM’, then again cut and paste in the same
notepad file (joomla.php). This process can be done in the simple notepad file but
the problem is, there are too much word named ‘InnoDB’ and you have replace
all. So, replacing one by one increase the chances of mistakes. Do in which way
you fill comfortable. Save the file and close all.
