Arguably students' academic performance is one of the key areas that a university should focus on and perform further analysis on available data. One of the primary objectives of this research is to analyse the Wi-Fi AMP (Access Module Processor) data gathered by the Information Services Department of University of Portsmouth and determine how students are spending their time on university campus. Later these data have been used to examine if this information can be related to the academic performance of the student. With the analysed Wi-Fi data and academic records of the students a preliminary model has been created which tries to show how the time spent by the students in different types of location are correlated.

Paper presentation at EUNIS 2016 conference, Thessaloniki, Greece. Globally, over 500 universities now offer data science courses at undergraduate or postgraduate level and, in research-intensive universities, these courses are typically underpinned by academic research in statistics, machine learning and computer science departments and, increasingly, in multidisciplinary data science institutes. Much has been written about the academic challenges of data science from the perspective of its core academic disciplines and from its application domains, ranging from sciences and engineering through to arts and humanities. However, relatively little has been written about the institutional information technology (IT) support challenges entailed by this rapid growth in data science. This paper sets out some of these IT challenges and examines competing support strategies, service design and financial models through the lens of academic IT support services.

APPLICATION OF DIGITAL CLOUD LIBRARIES FOR ETHIOPIAN PUBLIC HIGHER LEARNING I...IAEME Publication
Information and communication technologies (ICT) have become common place entities in all aspects of life. Across the past twenty years the use of ICT has fundamentally changed the practices and procedures of nearly all forms of endeavor within business and governance. Investment in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in Ethiopia is considered to be one of the highest in the world, taking into consideration the prevailing poverty levels. The basic principle of cloud computing entails the reduction of in-house data centers and the delegation of a portion or all of the Information Technology infrastructure capability to a third party. Universities and Colleges are the core of innovation through their advanced research and development. Digital Cloud Libraries may soon be building and managing their own data centers.
NOMENCLATURE CHANGE FOR LIBRARY AND INFORMATION SCIENCE (LIS) SCHOOLS IN NIGE...IAEME Publication
This paper provides a synopsis of the evolutionary changes in the nomenclature of Library andInformation Science (LIS) programme in different countries and makes a case for LIS Schools in
Nigeria to adopt Information and Knowledge Management (IKM) as their new name in line with
current trends. It highlights the specific factors which make this transformation of LIS to IKM
imperative. Various institutions that changed the nomenclature of their LIS programme and thosethat prefer IKM were listed. The scope and content of an IKMprogramme were outlined. In
addition, the implications of IKM for interdisciplinary research and emerging opportunities in the
21st century were discussed. Finally, a proposal was made for a bachelor degree programme inpublishing and multimedia studies/technology, which is highly entrepreneurial in nature. The push
for other information-related disciplines was used to justify the argument for a distinct faculty forthese courses in the Nigerian tertiary education sector. This has implications for the change to IKM
as it underlines the strategic importance of thisrebrandeddiscipline in the educational systems ofthe knowledge economy.
Library and Information Services are playing a vital role in digital era. Library services are
now depends upon the Information and Communication Technology. This paper is highlight the
services of libraries with new technology. It identify the various components of ICT. It also definethe functions and challenges of ICT based library services
This project report deliberates the new activities, methods and technology used in digitization and formation of digital libraries. It set out some key points involved and the detailed plans required in the process, offers pieces of advice and guidance for the practicing Librarians and Information scientists. Digital Libraries are being created today for diverse communities and in different fields e.g. education, science, culture, development, health, governance and so on. With the availability of several free digital Library software packages at the recent time, the creation and sharing of information through the digital library collections has become an attractive and feasible proposition for library and information professionals around the world. The paper ends with a call to integrate digitization into the plans and policies of any institution to maximize its effectiveness.
Information is a fast growing entity, and Library is also an ever growing organization. It is always seen that library and information centers always welcome the new technologies so that they can satisfy the users’ information needs. Therefore it is not surprising that, library & information centers adapting recent trends. This paper is a study in some selected colleges of Coimbatore district. It is an attempt to study the present scenario of these colleges.
Digitization of Library Resources in Academic Libraries: Challenges and Impli...iosrjce
The advent of information and communication technology (ICT) has made imperative that library
holdings must be both in digital format and traditional format. Converting the analog library holdings to digital
format is indeed a herculean task. This paper discusses these challenges and proffered solutions.
Library Makeover: Retooling & Re-engineering of Library ServicesFe Angela Verzosa
presented at the Seminar on the theme “The New Face of the 21st Century Libraries and Information Specialists,” sponsored by Cavite Librarians Association, Inc., held at La Salette Retreat House, Biga, Silang, Cavite, Philippines on Dec 5, 2007
e-Governance is the ICT-enabled route to achieving good governance.
An e-library is a library in which collections are stored in digital formats (as opposed to print, microform, or other media) and accessible by computers. The digital content may be stored locally, or accessed remotely via computer networks.
As a part of my regular academic activities under the course “Globalization and Governance (PA-322)”, I was assigned to plan for making department’s seminar an e-library .
This document contains an e-Library Manifesto which introduces the relevant ‘systems’. It describes the main concepts characterising these systems, i.e., content, user, functionality, quality, policy and architecture. It also describes the reference frameworks needed to clarify the e-Library Reference Architecture.
This e-library will meet the needs and passions of teachers and students and the learning styles of the latter of the department .
2. This presentation outlines the responsibilities and challenges of a Technology Services Coordinator for an academic library at a North Carolina University.
3. University and Library Statistics 2008-09: Enrollment: Approximately 17,000 total (about 2, 100 of these were graduate students) Overall Library Circulation: 450,172 items Library Attendance: 1,148,865
4. The coordinator’s responsibilities includecoordinating and managing: an institutional repository web applications and design systems and technology educational media over 500 computers digitization
5. The library’s technical department handles all the desk top computing, wireless computing, and web support for the library, as well as supporting the infrastructure on which these systems run.
6. Whereas technological change was fairly dramatic in the 1990’s for this academic library, currently both software and hardware used for library applications are fairly stable.
7. Current technology challenges do include the recent and ongoing task of delivering information to increasingly smaller, portable computers such as Nanos and IPods. In response, this library developed a more basic version of the catalog which is manageable within a small display.
8. Further recent technology changes and trends include the tendency toward “cloud computing” and web based software applications.
9. Increasingly, the cataloging of e journals and books is automated, freeing libraries, including this one, to devote cataloging resources to what is unique in their own private collections, and to making these collections digitally available.
10. One key to successful IT management is to work with those who truly enjoy problem solving.
11. Any changes made by the Instructional Technology department tend to be very visible across campus. This is particularly true for changes made to the University website and home page.
12. Central to sustainable IT management is inviting input while realizing not everyone will be happy with decisions made. Recognizing the dynamic relationship between technology systems and their users is essential.
