Predatory Publications and Software Tools for IdentificationSaptarshi Ghosh
Journals that publish work without proper peer review and which charge scholars sometimes huge fees to submit should not be allowed to share space with legitimate journals and publishers, whether open access or not. These journals and publishers cheapen intellectual work by misleading scholars, preying particularly early career researchers trying to gain an edge. The credibility of scholars duped into publishing in these journals can be seriously damaged by doing so. It is important that as a scholarly community we help to protect each other from being taken advantage of in this way.
Selective Reporting and Misrepresentation of DataSaptarshi Ghosh
Research integrity means conducting research according to the highest professional and ethical standards, so that the results are trustworthy.
It concerns the behavior of researchers at all stages of the research life-cycle, including declaring competing interests; data collection and data management; using appropriate methodology; drawing conclusions from results; and writing up research findings.
Finding the Right Journal at the Right Time for the Right WorkSaptarshi Ghosh
JournalFinder helps you find journals that could be best suited for publishing your scientific article. Please also consult the journal’s Aims and Scope for further guidance. Ultimately, the Editor will decide on how well your article matches the journal.

Journal-level metrics
Metrics have become a fact of life in many - if not all - fields of research and scholarship. In an age of information abundance (often termed ‘information overload’), having a shorthand for the signals for where in the ocean of published literature to focus our limited attention has become increasingly important.
Research metrics are sometimes controversial, especially when in popular usage they become proxies for multidimensional concepts such as research quality or impact. Each metric may offer a different emphasis based on its underlying data source, method of calculation, or context of use. For this reason, Elsevier promotes the responsible use of research metrics encapsulated in two “golden rules”. Those are: always use both qualitative and quantitative input for decisions (i.e. expert opinion alongside metrics), and always use more than one research metric as the quantitative input. This second rule acknowledges that performance cannot be expressed by any single metric, as well as the fact that all metrics have specific strengths and weaknesses. Therefore, using multiple complementary metrics can help to provide a more complete picture and reflect different aspects of research productivity and impact in the final assessment. ( Elsevier)
The phrase new normal is an oxymoron typically used to indicate a life event that is out of the ordinary and has a long-lasting or permanent impact on someone’s day-to-day routine.
But using the phrase to describe efforts that makes me uncomfortable to fight a global pandemic implies a sense of permanence.
In her foreword to John Putzier, Weirdos in the Workplace: The New Normal—Thriving in the Age of the Individual (2004), Libby Sartain claims that the phrase “the new normal” is a recent coinage
Great wits are sure to madness near allied
And thin partitions do their bounds divide.

There is no great genius without a tincture of madness. (Seneca, 1st Century A.D.)
ALTMETRICS : A HASTY PEEP INTO NEW SCHOLARLY MEASUREMENTSaptarshi Ghosh
The term ‘Altmetrics’ was proposed by Jason Priem, a PhD student at the School of Information and Library Science at University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill through a tweet. [https://twitter.com/asnpriem/status/25844968813].
Altmetrics is the combination of two words such as: ‘Alternative’ and ‘Metrics’ in which the ‘alt-‘part refers to alternative types of metrics (that is alternative to traditional metrics such as citation analysis, impact factor, downloads & usage data etc.).
Altmetrics is the creation and study of new metrics based on the Social Web for analyzing, and informing scholarship (http://altmetrics.org/about/). It is the study of new indicators for the analysis of academic activity based on Web 2.0.
Paradoxical betweenness in Academic endeavors and research metricsSaptarshi Ghosh
Publish or perish" is an aphorism describing the pressure to publish academic work in order to succeed in an academic career. ... The pressure to publish has been cited as a cause of poor work being submitted to academic journals.
Will the Digital library sustain as a Social Capital for dissemination of Inf...Saptarshi Ghosh
Abstract
This paper deals with the relationship between digital library and social development. The core of digital library which rests with strong social bonding and participatory approach, has been reflected in this write-up. Today, global prosperity and individual productivity depend upon the ability to learn constantly, adapt to change readily, and to evaluate information critically. Right now in this information rich world, we must remain ways to transform information into knowledge. So, how can we ensure that our communities can access the resources and services that we have available? How can we ensure that we are responsive to, and representative of, our communities' actual, as opposed to perceived, needs? We will look at various ways that library services can partner with their communities to bring about better outcomes for all. The digital library can bridge these gaps and it may be turned as a people’s access to the information repository and can be a motivator to sustainable development.
Information System Design in Context of Social InformaticsSaptarshi Ghosh
Informatics is a branch of information engineering. It involves the practice of information processing and the engineering of information systems, and as an academic field it is an applied form of information science.
The field considers the interaction between humans and information alongside the construction of interfaces, organisations, technologies and systems.
“Organization Behaviour is concerned with the study of what people do in an organization and how that behaviour affects the performance of the organization.” (Robbins: 1989)
Library Intelligence The collection, analysis, and synthesis of data. Time devoted to reflection and development of insight Willingness and ability to change. Library Intelligence makes it easier for library staff to focus on improving their digital literacy fluency.

Impact of Social Networking /Web 2.0 features in Library Management SoftwareSaptarshi Ghosh
Web 2.0 describes World Wide Web websites that emphasize user-generated content, usability (ease of use, even by non-experts), and interoperability (this means that a website can work well with other products, systems and devices) for end users. The term was popularized by Tim O'Reilly. Social networking sites like facebook, twitter, etc. are result of web 2.0.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

5. I Will Write Poem…
I sat in the classroom, Staring at the wall.
Wondering if it’s the same place (HRDC), I used to fall for.
I sat in the classroom, Staring at the wall.
Wondering if it’s still the same place, “Where promotions come true!”
Soon did I realized it’s the place, Where reality meets you.
I sat in the classroom, Staring at the overwritten board.
Wondering what to do with delta, sigma; When your own soul is unexplored.
I sat in the classroom, Thinking that the geek inside me Has died long before.
And a total new person Has emerged over three weeks.
I sat in the classroom, Looking at my other friends,
Who are as confused as I am, Wondering what would I do Without this man?
I sat in the classroom, Secretly staring at the professor I have faith for.
Who judged me from my gesture, And thinks I’m just a moron.
I sat in the classroom, Writing this poem being bored.
Suddenly the professor screams, “Who’s that fellow, I haven’t seen him
before!”
So now I sit in the corridor, Thinking how to end this poem.
Then suddenly a thought flashed in my mind, “That I should probably attend
the classes regularly,
Instead of writing this piece of shit, I call “POEM” !”

Ghazal: a form of Urdu poetry (shayari) in
which the poem contains a series of couplets
one after the other. Each of the couplets, or
sher, has a separate idea that is generally
related to the central theme. The couplets
rhyme with each other, i.e. the last lines of all
couplets rhyme with one another. The topics
generally covered include love, longing,
heartbreak, etc. and are often addressed to
or refer to a beloved, generally male, form.
The general rhyming patterm is AABACADA...
Please refer to my answer linked as follows
for more technical details - Tauseef Warsi's
answer to What are the elements of a good
sher?
8. Lets do something to change
1
Nazm - Practically the second most prominent genre of Urdu poetry,
nazms are poems that are similar to English and Hindi poems. They
often have couplets one after the other, but it is not necessary as
nazms may also have paragraphs of four sentences or more (typically
referred to by other names, like musaddas). Couplets are generally a
part of a larger paragraph, and the size of paragraphs is not
necessarily constant. Nazms are more often than not a single story or
idea and every couplet or paragraph serves that central theme. The
rhyming pattern is different from a ghazal, since even though
couplets following each other rhyme within a paragraph, they may
vary across paragraphs. Most nazm writers use their own preferred
rhyming patterns.
2
The differences between nazms and ghazals are because nazms are
typically read out or recited, whereas ghazals are sung. One will find a
large number of great ghazal writers (Ghalib, Mir, Zauq), but nazm
was adopted by fewer greats, prominently Iqbal and Faiz.
9. Lets do something to change
Sher - a two line couplet; part of a ghzal or a sher. In fact, the building
block of both.
Rekhti - A form of poetry in which the poet writes from a women's
perspective, adopting her voice, on topics that are generally promiscuous
in nature. A historical form perhaps dead by now, it was mostly composed
by male poets and patronised by nautch girls mostly in Lucknow.
10. Hamd
The words written in the praise of God
or Allah.
Hijv
The satirical version of the Shayari
written to condemn or abuse a person.
The nature of Hijv is considered low
(cheap) and this type of poetry is
generally avoided by reputed poets.
Hazal
Poem with humorous subject.
Husn-E-Matla
It’s the art of rhyming of the first two
lines of a ghazal.
Madah
A poem written in the praise of kings,
warriors and patrons.

Ahle-E-Bait (Holy Phophet and the
family members)

acts of great men of Islamic history.
These usually describe the fierce battle
Masnawi
An extensive and elongated epic poem
depicting the great battles fought long
ago and the historic events of earlier

11. Qafia
The melodious rhyming of the last lines of a poem.
Qasida
A long poem written in Arabic, Urdu or Persian
describing battles fought or won by kings, princes,
warriors or the poet’s patron.
Quita
A poem fragmented into two ashaars, revolving
around a single subject.
Radeef
Every sher or ghazal, in addition to qafia may also
have radeef, which is made by rhyming of the last
three or four words.
Salam
Recited by standing up, salam’s literal meaning is
salutation.
Sehra
A folk song sung at the time of wedding while tying
Sehra on the groom, praising the culture and
families of the bride or the groom.
Takhallus
The pen name of the poet, by which he is known in
the fictional world.
Tarannum: The unique manner in which every
poet recites poem.
Wasokht
A sort of Urdu poem in which the discontentment
and annoyance of a lover is narrated. These are
some of the terms used in Shayari. A listener of any
language can enjoy the pleasures of Shayari as it
requires an emotional heart to understand the
prose and verses it. In short – it is the essence of
Urdu poetry that has continued to offer joy and
amusement to the realms of the past till the
gatherings of today.
