National Conference of Agricultural Librarians & Users Community NATIONAL CONFERENCE OF AGRICULTURAL LIBRARIANS & USERS COMMUNITY (NCALUC-2018) (04th – 05th September, 2018) RE-ENGINEERING OF AGRICULTURAL LIBRARIES AND EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES: CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES Edited by Dr. G. Rathinasabapathy Dr. Hans Raj Dr. K. Veeranjaneyulu Dr. V.K.Bharti Organized by Bihar Animal Sciences University, Patna (Bihar) and Association of Agricultural and Librarians and Documentalists of India (AALDI) (i) © 2018 Disclaimer The Publisher and Organisers do not claim any responsibility for the accuracy of the data, statements made, and opinions expressed by authors. The authors are solely responsible for the contents published in the paper. Published by BS Publications A unit of BSP Books Pvt. Ltd. 4-4-309/316, Giriraj Lane, Sultan Bazar, Hyderabad - 500 095 Phone : 040 - 23445688, 23445600 e-mail : [email protected] www.bspbooks.net ISBN: 978-93-88305-35-8 Price: Rs. 895.00 (ii) Libraries are welcoming spaces inviting us towards information, and they provide services that help us understand it. Libraries have always been in the forefront in adopting new technologies to meet the challenges of information explosion as well as to enhance access to diverse and distributed electronic resources and publications. Since Libraries have adopted modern technologies, it is high time that the library professionals should also acquire new skills to offer networked information services to the potential users in an efficient and effective manner. The 21st Century library is in a position to support and indeed lead the change in the education system with effective delivery of information and prove that ‘New technology deserves new thinking’. The abundance of resources and technology for easy access and retrieval of information via the Internet is posing a challenge to educators to rethink their traditional roles and practices; and also to consider the unique value they add to a world in which information is everywhere. Access to electronic information resources in this part of the world has been limited due to the high cost associated with accessing such resources and poor information technology infrastructure. External factors such as these should not obscure what a librarian should do to aid, extend and energize learning and teaching. Even with limited resources, librarians can develop exceptional approaches to energizing information programmes with the right support and leadership. In recent years, several library consortia such as the INDEST, UGC- INFONET, ICAR-CeRA, Krishikosh, Agricat etc., were launched for accessing electronic resources in higher education and research institutes. The full use of such electronic resources by academicians and researchers is yet to reach an optimum level. The organizers of the National Conference have rightly chosen the topic “Re-Engineering of Agricultural Libraries and Emerging Technologies: Challenges and Opportunities” to address the issues currently faced by the information providers as well as information users. (iii) I would like to thank and express my appreciation to Dr. K. Veeranjaneyulu, President, AALDI and Dr. Hans Raj, Organizing Secretary, NCALUC-2018 for organizing the National Conference successfully. (Rameshwar Singh) (iv) PREFACE The theme of the National Conference of Agricultural Librarians & Users Community (NCALUC-2018) is carefully preferred as “Re-Engineering of Agricultural Libraries and Emerging Technologies: Challenges and Opportunities” because of its importance and relevance to the present global scenario. The editors had to reject some papers which did not fit into the theme and/or ‘not up-to-the-mark’ based on the comments of the peer reviewers, which is inevitable. The papers received from the width and breadth of the country are grouped under the following themes: 1. Re-engineering Agricultural Libraries 2. Emerging Library Technologies 3. Open Access Resources in Agriculture 4. Measuring Research Output 5. User Studies in LIS We earnestly hope that this National Conference will create awareness and interest among LIS professionals and policy makers about emerging technologies in agricultural libraries and enable them to upgrade their libraries keeping pace with the technological advancements. We record our sincere thanks to Dr. Rameshwar Singh, Hon’ble Vice- Chancellor, Bihar Animal Sciences University, Patna, Bihar, who readily agreed to host the National Conference and spared his precious time to write the Foreword for this volume in a short notice. The Editors emphasise that the views expressed in the papers are that of the respective authors only. AALDI and Bihar Animal Sciences University, Patna (Bihar) or the Editors are in no way responsible for the thought content of the articles. Finally, the Editors are thankful to all those who have contributed, supported and encouraged directly or indirectly to make this national event a great success. We hope this volume would be useful to the students, researchers, practicing information professionals, agricultural library staff, policy makers and faculty in Library and Information Science. - Editors (v) CONTENTS Foreword .........................................................................................................

    Contents Foreword p2/ Preface p3/ Overview p4/ Current initiatives p12/ Challenges and way forward p25/ International examples p28/Sources p32/ Glossary p36/ FICCI Security Department p38 Smart border management: Indian coastal and maritime security September 2017 www.pwc.in Dr Sanjaya Baru Secretary General Foreword 1 FICCI India’s long coastline presents a variety of security challenges including illegal landing of arms and explosives at isolated spots on the coast, infiltration/ex-filtration of anti-national elements, use of the sea and off shore islands for criminal activities, and smuggling of consumer and intermediate goods through sea routes. Absence of physical barriers on the coast and presence of vital industrial and defence installations near the coast also enhance the vulnerability of the coasts to illegal cross-border activities. In addition, the Indian Ocean Region is of strategic importance to India’s security. A substantial part of India’s external trade and energy supplies pass through this region. The security of India’s island territories, in particular, the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, remains an important priority. Drug trafficking, sea-piracy and other clandestine activities such as gun running are emerging as new challenges to security management in the Indian Ocean region. FICCI believes that industry has the technological capability to implement border management solutions. The government could consider exploring integrated solutions provided by industry for strengthening coastal security of the country. The FICCI-PwC report on ‘Smart border management: Indian coastal and maritime security’ highlights the initiatives being taken by the Central and state governments to strengthen coastal security measures in the country.

  • Big US Firms to Meet Adityanath Under ‘US in UP’
    Big US firms to meet Adityanath under ‘US in UP’ 23 October 2017 | News Big US firms to meet Adityanath under ‘US in UP’ 'US in UP' has been mooted to showcase the state's investment avenues in chemicals, petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, cement, gems, textiles and engineering sectors. With the tagline "US in UP", 26 major American companies will interact with Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adtiyanath to explore investment opportunities in the state. "Headed by Boeing, 26 US firms are on their way to Uttar Pradesh to explore investment avenues in the state. The tagline is 'US in UP' on the lines of 'Vibrant Gujarat'," senior cabinet minister Siddharth Nath Singh told. The delegation will visit the state under the aegis of US-India Strategic Partnership Forum (USISPF), Singh, who is UP Health Minister, said. The USISPF is committed to creating the most powerful strategic partnership between the US and India and promoting bilateral trade is an important task, the Forum said. "But, our mission reaches far beyond this. It is about business and government coming together in new ways to create meaningful opportunities that have the power to change the lives of citizens," the USISPF said. It said in a statement that investment incentives offered by the state under the new chief minister "translate into a business- friendly climate for industry." Singh said taking a cue from 'Vibrant Gujarat', the idea of 'US in UP' has been mooted to showcase the state's investment avenues in chemicals, petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, cement, gems, textiles and engineering sectors. He said a small delegation had visited this state two months back and realising the "tremendous investment potential" in the state, a bigger delegation will be travelling to the state tomorrow.
