The event was organised at JNU, New Delhi on 21st October, 2013 to mark the Open Access Week.
The organisers intended to focus on the need to create an enabling environment for open access (OA) in India, promote and upscale existing OA initiatives, and encourage the development of new OA programmes. This was planned to do by ‘closing the circle’ or linking multiple stakeholder groups, viz. researchers, librarians, archivists, publishers, technologists, authors and policymakers, taking into account their concerns and views and providing a platform to advocate for a common cause.

So, with the completion of this course, you will be able to understand that, now the Libraries and Librarians are needed for packaging and repackaging of information or for knowledge organization and dissemination, for reference purpose, to advise the users about the strategy to identify relevant electronic sources, etc.
The course will surely help you understand that if the Users can not come to the Library, let the Library reach to them as per their convenience and the way, they want.
Its now time to “think globally and act locally” and to be Architect NOT Victim of the Change due to the impact of ICT.
Finally, I would like to invite you all to join this ARPIT MOOCs and take advantage of the contents and discussion that would be available to you to upgrade your professional skills to make you the Smart Librarian.

Digital library literature nabi hasan and mukhtiar singh at ICDL-2013Nabi Hasan
The paper attempts to evaluate the trend of world literature on “digital library” in terms of the output of research publications as indexed in the Science Citation Index during the period from 2003 to 2012. A total of 1733 papers were indexed on “digital library” in the database during the 10 year study period. The average number of papers published per year was 173.30. The highest number of papers, i.e. 15.41% were published in the year 2007. A total of 70 counties were involved in contributing publications and United States contributed highest to the tune of 38.60% and India was at eighth position with 2.25% publications. Most productive institution was University of California, which contributed a total of 2.83% publications. Proceeding papers amounted to 70.28% of the literature on digital library. Lecture Notes in Computer Science with 20.89% and English language with 98.50% publications were at the top. Highest foreign collaborations in 24.66% publications reported in papers from UK. The study may help policy makers to look into the trends and make effective policies related to digital libraries on the basis of inferences drawn from the analysis.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.

23. FOSSEE (Free/Libre and Open Source Software for Education)
project promotes the use of FLOSS tools in academia and research
24. Open Access Week in India
➢ Every year, last week of October Month India celebrates
international OAW.
➢ OAW celebration in India community practices for
advocating on open access, open data, open education,
open scholarship, open access resources in India.
➢ Provides an opportunity to celebrate progress and bring
additional awareness to help make Open Access.
26. ONOS-What is it; what are the implications
➢ ONOS aims at providing access to paywalled content to the
whole country and to promote open access through
agreements.
➢ It intends to acquire national licenses for E-journals/databases
from most of the prominent publishers and database providers.
➢ Central funding/Concessions on Article Processing Charges
(APCs) for open access publications is also aimed as part of
ONOS.
➢ More readers would mean more scientific exposure and
improved research outcomes and development in the long
term.
➢ Support for APC will promote open access publications and
thus help in open access movement throughout the world.
27. Recommendations to build the future of
OA adoption in India
➢ To curb ‘predatory’ publishing
➢ Creation of more OA Repositories
➢ Organizing Workshop Seminars on OA
➢ Greater role for Communities of Practice
➢ Librarians as Champions of OA
➢ Publishing in OA Journals
➢ Think. Check. Submit
➢ Use of Open Formats and Open Licenses
➢ Central payment system for APCs for all reputed APC-
based journals.
➢ Authors allowed pay APC through grants available
28. Conclusions
➢ OA movement has gained significant momentum in India in recent years,
with the government and academic institutions showing strong support.
➢ All government funded research may be made available in an OA format.
➢ There has been a significant increase in the number of OA journals in India.
➢ Many universities and research institutions in India have established their
own OA repositories.
➢ Indian Researchers have more submissions in the global Preprint
repositories comparing those hosted in India.
➢ ONOS seems to be promising in OA movement.
➢ Overall, the future of Open Access in India looks bright, as more and more
institutions and researchers recognize the importance of making scientific
research freely available to everyone.
➢ However, there are challenges that need to be addressed, such as the lack
of awareness about OA among researchers and the need for sustainable
funding models to support OA publishing.
➢ Nevertheless, with continued support and advocacy from the government
and academic community, the OA movement in India is likely to grow and
thrive in the years to come.
