  • Outsider… Final
    Romantic Madness of Nature and Art … In a dare-desire of measuring the height of precipitous cliffs of experiences, along with the chainless episodes of expressions, I turn out to be a rebel to myself in every moment. Advocating on the appeal of my being the most miserable one, I want to be adjudged the happiest one among the maddening crowd. This is an absolute demand of my conscience. Myself tuned in to the lyrical notation of death, my mourning song is the music of my life. I am a poet of the body, and I am the poet of the soul, The pleasure of heaven with me and the pains of heaven with me. – Walt Whitman My beloved expression! Sometimes I collide with my own flashbacks and nearly explode. But even in a time of obscurity and oblivion my conscience remains my nearest relative. Only after that comes other relations and turn loving. Gradually, gladness of creation and glow of beauty spread in the face. Life seems grand but in the maxim of impulse, hatred and revenge like informalities, the entire world turns out to be stranger, all the possible well-wishers and lovers of mine are discarded quietly. Everyone seems stranger. However, minimum human necessities are related to informalities rather than formalities, but when it comes to experience the joys of living without editing the life, maximum human necessities tend to believe in formalities. Lets say, when time steals you, it would be difficult to love life without formalities. In this formal practice a man who is busy in judging other forget to judge himself.

Antigua profesora de la Jadavpur University, Kolkata, India. Presidente de la Asociación Internacional de Historia Oral (IOHA) Patan, 25 de abril, 2015: Me desperté lleno de anticipación ya que iba a entrevistar al historiador cultural Satya Mohan Joshiji, de 95 años de edad. La tarde anterior del 24 de abril, había pasado por su casa. Él estaba justo a punto de salir a inaugurar una conferencia y no pudimos hablar. Me pidió que volviera la mañana del 25 a las 9. Cuando llegué me dijo que no deseaba que grabara la conversación dado que no estaba preparado y no quería cometer “errores”. Había oído de Kanak Mani Dixit, que Satya Mohanji no se encontraba bien de salud y hacía poco había sufrido un acci- dente cerebrovascular. Él me lo dijo y agregó que no podía hablar por mucho tiempo. La conversación duró una hora y media. Él alternaba entre el inglés e hindú. Cantó para mí en nepalí. Nada de esto está en la grabación. Como un historiador oral, tuve que respetar sus deseos. Era la única forma de construir un vínculo de confianza. En mi mente, pensé que aquella era apenas nuestra primera reunión y que luego ya habría tiempo para grabar una entrevista más elaborada. Mientras hablaba, percibí que Satya Mohanji tenía una forma especial de hablar que hacía que las cosas cobrasen vida.

  • Case Study: Nepal Evergreen ILS Pilot
    eIFL.net ILS Case Study Case Study: Nepal Evergreen ILS pilot Project overview The eIFL-FOSS ILS project provides an opportunity for evaluation of and possible migration to a free and open source software (FOSS) integrated library system (ILS). It promotes direct engagement with the FOSS communities of a chosen ILS. And it lays the groundwork for a mutual support network across eIFL.net for further libraries investigating migration to a FOSS ILS. The project focused on evaluating two FOSS ILSs with robust and open development and support communities: Koha ( http://www.koha.org/ ) and Evergreen ( http://www.open-ils.org/ ). Following a general call for participation in early 2008, libraries from 12 countries representing 11 language groups submitted applications to become pilot sites. From these, 7 sites were selected that represented a wide range of libraries and regions. All applicants joined an email discussion list in order to follow the progress of the pilot sites. The 7 pilot sites are: Fundamental Scientific Library of the National Academy of Sciences, Armenia ; National Scientific Library, Georgia ; Mzuzu University, Malawi ; Library of the Faculty of Medicine Pharmacy and Dentistry, University of Bamako, Mali ; Madan Puraskar Pustakalaya, Nepal ; Midlands State University Library, Zimbabwe ; and An-Najah National University Library, Palestine (West Bank). Each pilot library participating in the project was invited to participate in an intensive technical training workshop in Yerevan, Armenia, in June 2008. Case studies of each pilot draw out learning points for other libraries seeking to move to a FOSS ILS. Pilot library Madan Puraskar Pustakalaya (MPP http://madanpuraskar.org/ ) is a non-profit, non- governmental library.

Initiated and managed by the local residents, CRM has been on the air on frequency modulation (FM) band serving 800,000 potential listeners in the region since 2000. Triangulating in-depth interviews, observations and an audience survey as methods, this research explores the nature and extent of the local residents’ participation in the communication process. The station, operating with a wide participation from its community members, has not only been successful in providing them with an access to much needed information and entertainment but has also, in fact, proved to be an important avenue for the local population to express their opinions and views as well as exchange feelings. An audience survey, conducted in January 2004, revealed that 80.8 percentage of the local respondents listen to their community radio station for information and entertainment.
