University of California Los Angeles University of California Los Angeles 19th Century Periodicals of Portuguese India: An Assessment of Documentary Evidence and Indo-Portuguese Identity. A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Information Studies by Liladhar Ramchandra Pendse 2012 © copyright by Liladhar Ramchandra Pendse ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION 19th Century Periodicals of Portuguese India: An Assessment of Documentary Evidence and Indo-Portuguese Identity. by Liladhar Ramchandra Pendse Doctor of Philosophy in Information Studies University of California, Los Angeles, 2013 Professor Anne J. Gilliland, Chair Portuguese colonial periodicals of 19th century India represent a rich source of information that might be used by scholars in comparative literature, history, post-colonial studies, and other humanities and social sciences-related disciplines. These periodicals are markers of modalities of colonial dominance and the ensuing hybridities that led to formation of the complex Indo-Portuguese identity (-ies) in the 19th century Indian sub-continent. Although the majority of these collections remain in India and Portugal, these periodicals also form a part of extensive South Asia collections held in academic libraries in the United States. These periodicals have often been overlooked as a source of information on the colonial milieu of 19th century India because access to them has been problematic for several reasons. Memories of a colonial past that could have been perceived as repressive might be one reason why these periodicals have been left to wither away in both India and Portugal. Since some of these periodicals are held in collections of academic libraries in the United States, questions about what responsibilities these libraries might have or take on to provide access to these ii disappearing periodicals in their original or digitized form become important. This situation raises several questions about the nature of the stewardship concerning these periodicals in each of geographic location: India, Portugal and the United States, as well as the implications of the complex of intellectual property legislation in India, Portugal and the United States for any digitization initiatives. This dissertation addresses several three distinct yet interlinked themes: First, it provides a history and description of 19th century periodicals of Portuguese India. Second, it demonstrates the use of 19th century Portuguese literary periodicals of Portuguese India as evidence of Indo- Portuguese identity formation and hybridities. Third, it examines stewardship issues related to collections of these periodicals held in libraries in India, Portugal and the United States. The key findings of my research are as follows: There were hundreds of Portuguese language periodicals in the 19th century Portuguese India and Bombay, where the Indo- Portuguese diaspora lived and worked. These periodicals circulated for varying lengths of time and comprised multiple genres. A substantial number of Portuguese language periodicals also began appearing in Bombay in British India. This appearance of periodicals in diaspora, while not unique to the Portuguese periodicals of India, indicates the need of expatriates for news to be published from their homeland as well as their language affinities. Although the “Bombay” periodicals were initially published in Portuguese, over a period of time we see incorporation of English as well as other regional languages such as Marathi and Konkani. The findings also suggest that the perceptions of American and international librarians to issues of stewardship for these publications are as diverse as the libraries for which they work. In the United States, the 19th century Portuguese periodicals of India generally form a very small part of the overall collections of colonial periodicals. The librarians who worked as the curators of these collections were primarly interested in providing access to these periodicals in alternate forms as in many cases the originals were fragile. The issues of copyright were deemed complicated and the iii librarians often quoted notions such as fair academic use, public domain, and local access to justify digital preservation of these materials where possible. My interviews of these librarians and the ensuing data analysis for this particular study demonstrate that both the multiple transformational stewardship model and the component stewardship model, map inadequately. These models fail to capture the diverse viewpoints to which these librarians subscribed. Since the sample size was rather small for this study, further study is needed to refine our understanding of the role of the stewardship when it comes to collecting, preserving and providing access to low use but high value periodicals, such as these 19th century Portuguese periodicals of India. I would argue that my study is just the first step in the direction of gaining insights regarding the world view of librarians from several different countries. Similar research is needed to see how librarians in other former colonial possesions of Portugal perceive the importance of stewardship with respect to their own Portuguese language colonial periodicals. iv The dissertation of Liladhar Ramchandra Pendse is approved. ________________________ Gregory H.

  • Open-Access Publishing Around the World
    Open-Access Publishing Around the World Introduction Open-access (OA) publishing is a hot topic. By publishing OA, anyone in the world can have free online access to your work. This PhD Links to Comics video provides an excellent explanation of what OA is, and Countries what its benefits are. There are two primary routes to OA publishing. The “green” route—self-archiving of publications—is free of charge, Argentina but typically involves an embargo period which delays OA publication, Belgium and often requires self-archiving of pre-prints. The “golden” route— European Union publication in OA journals—involves payment of an article processing fee by authors (or their institutions), but makes articles immediately Germany available online, free of charge to the reader. Each route has its Greece advantages and disadvantages. Mexico Netherlands The purpose of this article is to review developments and funding Poland opportunities for OA publishing in various countries around the Portugal world. Most of the country-specific information has been provided by local representatives of the European Association of Psychology and Russia Law – Student Society. Nevertheless, the information in this article is Spain relevant across all scientific disciplines. Before reviewing the South Africa general information, however, I will highlight some OA journals that Sweden are particularly relevant to the field of psychology and law. United Kingdom United States Psychology and Law Many OA options exist in the field of psychology and law. Firstly, when submitting to a traditional journal in the field, it is sometimes possible to select an OA option. However, there are various reasons why it may be better to publish in a full OA journal.

  • Analyzing the Performance of an Institutional Scientific Repository – a Case Study
    Vol. 22, no. 2 (2012) 98–117 | ISSN: 1435-5205 | e-ISSN: 2213-056X Analyzing the Performance of an Institutional Scientific Repository – A Case Study Maria Eduarda Rodrigues Instituto Politécnico de Castelo Branco – Escola Superior Agrária, Portugal; [email protected] António Moitinho Rodrigues Instituto Politécnico de Castelo Branco - Escola Superior Agrária/CERNAS, Portugal; [email protected] Abstract Scientific knowledge evolution is mainly based on an effective dissemina- tion of research results. The concept of Open Access gives us the theoreti- cal foundation of a model for accessing scientific knowledge, free from the constraints of traditional publishing and technologically supported by the Internet. Institutional Repositories are information systems that allow preserving, storing and disseminating scientific knowledge produced in higher educa- tion and scientific research institutions. They increase the visibility and the citation level of the documents. They also contribute to minimizing negative aspects like plagiarism of content because documents are exposed to peers in real time. As an alternative way to the traditional system of publishing scientific research content, repositories are developed in a cultural climate of great visibility lead- ing to an immediate critical evaluation by peers. The Scientific Repository of the Polytechnic Institute of Castelo Branco – Por- tugal (RCIPCB) was created in 2009 but its official presentation took place in This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported license Igitur publishing | http://liber.library.uu.nl/ | URN:NBN:NL:UI:10-1-113818 98 Liber Quarterly Volume 22 Issue 2 2012 Maria Eduarda Rodrigues and António Moitinho Rodrigues January 2010.

  • Open Practices in Public Higher Education in Portugal: Faculty Perspectives
    OPEN PRAXIS INTERN/ITION/ll Open Praxis, vol. 11 issue 1, January–March 2019, pp. 55–70 (ISSN 2304-070X) COUNCIL FOR OPEN AND DISTANCE EDUCATION Open Practices in Public Higher Education in Portugal: faculty perspectives Paula Cardoso , Lina Morgado & António Teixeira LE@D, Universidade Aberta (Portugal) [email protected], [email protected] & [email protected] Abstract In recent years, the Open Educational Resources (OER) and Open Access (OA) movements have been essential in creating opportunities in all scholarly activities, within the context of higher education. The main purpose of this research was to understand how perceptions and practices of faculty towards OER are related to their perceptions and practices towards OA. It is an exploratory and descriptive study, with a mixed methods approach, undertaken in Portugal. Results indicate that, although faculty already show some degree of knowledge and use of OER and OA in their teaching and research practices, there is still a general lack of knowledge in both fields. However, the convergence of perceptions regarding both fields provide evidence on the possibility of a common approach to both fields in faculty’s educational practices, with the purpose of opening up their educational and scientific resources, thus reinforcing the principles of transparency, collaboration and openness to knowledge. Keywords: Open Educational Resources; Open Access; Open Education; Open Educational Practices; Scholarship Introduction As with all spheres of society, Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) have been facing a number of challenges that question not only their practices but also the very role of higher education in the 21st century. HEIs no longer have an exclusive role, although they remain an important space for knowledge building (Hargreaves, 2003).

Research regarding the imagined communities of English language learners has not focused on students enrolled in an intensive English language program in the United States. In addition, the majority of such research concentrates on adolescent learners of English after they have become immersed within the target language and target language culture. This study focuses on the imagined communities of 15 female learners of English enrolled in an intensive English program in the United States. The participants represent cultural groups from Brazil, China, and Saudi Arabia. Data was collected via questionnaires, semi-structured interviews, and a semi-structured focus group interview.
