The document compares three free/open source integrated library management systems (ILMS): Koha, OpenBiblio, and PhpMyLibrary. It finds that Koha satisfies all functional requirements and scores highest in most modules like acquisition, cataloging, circulation, and serials control. While OpenBiblio and PhpMyLibrary are suitable for smaller libraries, they lack some modules. Free and open source ILMS offer libraries control over their systems without initial commercial software costs, and have all key features of proprietary systems. However, documentation and installation can sometimes be challenges. The author suggests librarians try open source options and get involved in their development.

We use classification each & every moment of the life by intentionally or unintentionally. Classification has always been the backbone of all Library operations and without it, library is definitely going to suffer in its recourse and to find a particular piece of information from unorganized heap of knowledge is almost impossible. The library classification is core instrument for organizing and retrieval of the documents stored in a library. At present era they are the navigation tools for locating and retrieving documents in more precisely and relevantly. The electronic versions of the DDC and UDC and other classification schemes make it possible to realize the potential of library classification to improve subject retrieval.

While doing a PPT presentation we have to keep in mind that the slides should be well arranged and don't describe too many unnecessary things in that. Because most of us only watch that by the pictures they don't like reading bullshit articles. This presentation is about how a software can help a library, from student databases to the prizes of books and other thing can be included there too. So don't be bother any more if you are a librarian then you must have a computer and if a software is installed it that like this then surely it's going to help you in your busy schedule. I have done that in past for my college seminar project for my college last year. The mentor and juries liked that so much. Just think about this, May be you could make lot changes in that for future. If i have spoke something wrong then plz forgive me.Good Luck bye...

Modernisation of Kerala Public Libraries is a massive project of Kerala State Library Council. The project aims to connect all public libraries of Kerala into a single network. It also includes training on modern library management to village librarians. Koha facilitates the platform to connect with the entire public library system. The project is a challenging task and at the same time it opens up a big opportunity for libraries to regain its glory in the networked Kerala society.
Scholarly Open access journals are leaping to more heights with the wide acceptance among academic community. Predatory open access journals are growing like weeds exploiting the good intention of Open Access movement. Predatory open access journals are charging fees from authors to publish the paper with misleading metrics and without following legacy editorial processes . Young scholars are the victims of predatory of open access journals. This paper discuss the nature and operations of predatory journals and suggests defence mechanisms to keep away those predators from academic community.
Open Source softwares are the products of voluntary effort of developers and end users. Koha is an active Open Source library management system project make using voluntary effort of programmers and library professionals. As non developers, library professionals involvement is very necessary in various stages of the software development. Koha user community is a growing one and the project offer variety of non developer roles for library professionals. Library professionals can report bugs, documentation writing, plugin development and training. The main aim of the survey is to know the participation and contribution of Library professionals in Koha Open Source software project.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
