Web-scale Discovery Services are becoming an integral part of libraries' information gathering arsenal. These services are able to use a single interface to seamlessly integrate results from a wide range of online sources, emulating the experience patrons have come to expect from Internet search engines. But despite their ability to streamline searching, discovery services provide a wide set of challenges for libraries who implement them. This virtual conference will touch on both the potential of discovery services as well as some of the issues involved.
Conforming to Destiny or Adapting to Circumstance: The State of Cataloging in...WiLS
Presented by Bobby Bothmann, Minnesota State University, Mankato for Peer Council 2019 on June 3rd at Madison Public Library in Madison, WI
Budgets, personnel, technology, services, and information-seeking behavior are some of the factors that influence today’s libraries. During this session, we will look at some of the historical technologies, processes, and trends in cataloging and examine how they panned out. We will use that information to identify and discuss current technologies, processes, and trends to see where we might be going and how advocacy might help us change fate.

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.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Modernisation of library resources emerging trends for engineering colleges
1. Modernisation of Library Resources:
Emerging trends for Engineering Colleges
Dr. H. Anil Kumar
Librarian, IIM Ahmedabad
2. Outline
• Trends in the Education and its Ecosystem
• Libraries and their relevance today
• Emerging trends in managing libraries
• A case of Vikram Sarabhai Library
• A few useful resources
37. India and education
• Education
– Identify what to get educated on
– Identify which institution provides it
– Apply –Exam - Admission – Fees
– Coursework – Exam – Certificate (credible)
• Education today
– Too many applicants and too few seats
– India GER is a little over 19%
– Unemployable – skill deficiency
– Employer is educating!
• Quality of education
– Lack of access to
• Teachers
• Courses
• Information Resources
• Something wrong in pedagogy
– Low reading – Academically adrift
– 5% learning in the classroom
38. “Education is what remains after one has forgotten what one
has learned in school..."- Albert Einstein
67. • The proportion of the UK’s total annual research
output that was available through open access in
2012 was about 40%, compared to a worldwide
average of 20%.
• The latest data from the UK Open Access
Implementation Group shows that 35% of the UK’s
total research outputs are freely provided through
Green, through an existing network of more than
200 active institutional and disciplinary repositories
68. Serials expenditures have been rising at approximately
triple the rate of the consumer price index over this time
93. • Michael Ellsberg
• The author of The Education of
Millionaires: It’s Not What You Think and
It’s Not Too Late.
• He spent two years interviewing the
nation’s most successful people who
didn’t graduate college, and who instead
majored in street smarts

105. Technology Advantages
• Learn at your own pace and interest
• Supplement learning in the classroom
• Less dependency on formal support
• Explore new ways of learning
• Variety and wide range of topics
106. Learning and education
• Formal methods
– Classroom training
– Laboratory training
– On the job or apprenticeship
• Non-formal methods
– Self-study and Reading
– Watching, seeing and trying
• Sources
– Institutes / schools / industries / employers
– Libraries and laboratories
– Internet
108. Why go beyond formal methods?
• The 95 Percent Solution: School is not where most Americans learn most
of their science by John H. Falk and Lynn D. Dierking
• Recent findings challenge the longstanding belief that the place for
science knowledge acquisition is the classroom.
• International comparisons of trends in science knowledge over lifetimes
suggests that much if not most science knowledge is acquired outside of
school.
American Scientist: v. 98 (Nov-Dec), 2010

111. • The prison industry needs to plan its future
growth –
how many cells are they going to need?
How many prisoners are there going to be, 15
years from now?
• And they found they could predict it very
easily, using a pretty simple algorithm,
based on asking what percentage of 10 and
11-year-olds couldn't read. And certainly
couldn't read for pleasure.
Indian Express, December 14, 2104
112. • Well-meaning adults can easily destroy a child's love of reading: stop them reading what they
enjoy, or give them worthy-but-dull books that you like, the 21st-century
equivalents of Victorian "improving" literature. You'll wind up with a generation
convinced that reading is uncool and worse, unpleasant.
• China in 2007, at the first party-approved science fiction and fantasy
convention in Chinese history.
• It's simple, he told me. The Chinese were brilliant at making things if other people brought them
the plans. But they did not innovate and they did not
invent. They did not imagine. So they sent a delegation to the US, to
Apple, to Microsoft, to Google, and they asked the people there who were inventing the future
about themselves.
• And they found that all of them had read science
fiction when they were boys or girls.

117. Universities, ours and theirs
Krishna Kumar (in The Hindu, August 9, 2012)
• Recruitment of faculty
• Concept of teaching (periods)
• Concept of knowledge – research
• Library
• The fourth critical difference lies in the library. In the West, even in the
most ordinary universities, the library forms the centre of life, both for
teachers and students. Librarians enjoy a high status as their contribution
to academic life cuts across academic disciplines…..

repository (student project reports, etc)
• The library at the start should have at least four qualified (MLISc) staff
at librarian (with around 10 years experience) and assistant librarian
levels. The librarian should be treated equivalent to faculty. They can be
supported by 3 interns and 2 stack assistants.
158. Recommendations
• The library should adopt open source software for its
automation and other services like institutional repository,
etc.
• The usage of library should be documented and monitored.
• A part of the library should allow users to bring their own
materials and use library as a learning, reading and
discussion space. This should be available 24X7.
