M S University's H M library ranked among top 25
M S University's H M library ranked among top 25
VADODARA: M S University (MSU), especially its Hansa Mehta library, is among top 25 institutes of the country.
The Information and Library Network (INFLIBNET) Centre, an autonomous Inter-University Centre of the University Grants Commission (UGC), has ranked MSU's H M Library 17th in terms of yearly total downloads (YTD).
In terms of document delivery service (DDS), it has been ranked sixth. And in terms of contribution to the 'Shodhganga' project, the university has been ranked at 24th position.
The INFLIBNET Centre has recently brought out a compilation titled 'Measuring research output and its impact using bibliometric indicators: Profiles of top 50 universities of India'. This compilation is aimed at sensitizing academic administrators and policy makers on measuring and evaluating research performance and ranking of academic institutions.
It also provides an opportunity to these 50 universities to examine its performance in different disciplines, identify gaps and figure out ways and means for further improvement.
The download statistics reveal that MSU is the only university from Gujarat to be in the top 20 list with 2,09,825 YTD.
"Last year, we (MSU) were ranked 18 in terms of YTD. Now, our ranking has improved further with an increase of nearly 36,000 YTD," MSU librarian Mayank Trivedi told TOI.
"The statistics provided by INFLIBNET show a strong and positive correlation between number of articles downloaded from e-resources through UGC-Infonet Digital Library consortium by faculty and researchers of MSU and number of research publications," he said.
In terms of DDS, MSU has been ranked sixth. DDS refers to the supply of photocopy from repository against a request from researchers from outside the campus.
"Our library is one of the 20 designated document delivery centres of the country designated by UGC," said Trivedi.
It was last year that MSU and INFLIBNET Centre had entered into collaboration whereby MSU became part of UGC's 'Shodhganga' project which refers to the storage of all Indian Electronic Thesis and Dissertations (ETD) at the centre.
"Although we (MSU) had joined the Shodhganga project in September last, we have been ranked at 24th position out of 130 universities that have joined the project," said Trivedi, adding that the university's position will further improve as more scholars become part of the Shodhganga project.

The 2013 School Leadership Summit (SchoolLeadershipSummit.com)
The 2013 School Leadership Summit (SchoolLeadershipSummit.com)
The Technology Information Center for Administrative Leadership (TICAL) and Steve Hargadon are pleased to announce the inaugural virtual and worldwide School Leadership Summit, Thursday, March 28th, 2013. This free conference will be held online and will be a unique chance to participate in a collaborative global conversation on school leadership with presentations by your peers. It is being co-chaired by Steve Hargadon, whose virtual educational conferences had over 100,000 attendee logins last year.
To be kept informed of the latest conference news and updates, please join the Admin 2.0 network and conference website at http://www.schoolleadershipsummit.com. Conference strands (aligned to the internationally-recognized ISTE National Education Technology Standards for Administrators) will include the leadership topics:
Vision in a Changing World Teaching and Learning in a Changing World Professional Learning in a Changing World Data-driven Reform in a Changing World Ethical and Responsible Use in a Changing World
Presenting: The conference seeks to present ideas, examples, and projects related to leadership in a changing world. Topics are likely to include: expert advice and/or successful practices relating to Common Core; digital textbooks; school reform; tablet devices for teaching, learning, and productivity; social networking; professional development; "flipped" classrooms; digital citizenship and literacies; global collaboration; stakeholder and digital communication; and much more!
The Call for Proposals for the conference opens in January HERE. Presenters can submit proposals for general sessions focused on one of the five strands above. While the final deadline for submissions is March 15th, 2013, presenters will be notified of acceptance on a rolling basis starting February 1st, 2012. There is a motivation for early submission and acceptance, as presenters schedule their own presentation times as a part of the process and the options become more limited as time goes on. As a conference that is focused on being participatory, we encourage new presenters as well as more experienced ones to submit to present.
International Advisory Board: Anyone can apply to be a member of the international advisory board. Advisory board members are recognized on the website and are asked to: Promote both participation and attendance at the conference Help us find partner organizations in their region(s) Help support and potentially train presenters in their geographical region If possible, help moderate sessions during the actual conference To sign up for the advisory board, please make sure you have joined the Admin 2.0 online network, and then join the advisory board group HERE.
Conference Partner Organizations: Whether you are a small school or a multi-national non-profit organization, we want to encourage you to become a conference partner. You must be non-commercial and primarily or substantively focused on school leadership to be approved. Once approved, your organization will be listed with a link, logo, and a short description; and you will be provided with a "spotlight" speaker session in the conference.
Our goal for the conference is to have it be a milestone event, bringing together organizations and individuals from all over the world. We recognize that much (if not most!) of the outreach for this conference will come from schools and organizations who advertise the conference to their memberships, and we want to recognize and "reward" those who do this!
There are no financial obligations for being a partner organization--all we ask is that you actively promote the conference to your membership and network, and encourage participation as well as presentations and submissions. To apply to be a conference partner organization, please make sure you have joined the Admin 2.0 online network, and then join the partner group HERE.
Conference Sponsors: There are opportunities for commercial sponsorship of the School Leadership Summit, and both recognition and authentic appreciation for financial support will be given to those who choose to sponsor. Sponsorship levels and benefits can be discussed with Steve Hargadon directly at steve@hargadon.com or 916-283-7901.

TICAL's mission is helping K-12 school leaders provide informed and effective leadership in the use of technology to improve education.
