Annual International Conference on Library and Information Science,4-7 August 2014, Athens, Greece: Abstract BookJyoti BhabalSenior Assistant Professor, SNDT Women’s University, IndiaAcademic and Professional Needs of ProfessorsBelonging to DisadvantagedSince ancient time large population of India suffered due to castesystem. Lower caste people were denied in many aspects includingright of education. The Scheduled Castes (SC) and Scheduled Tribes(ST) were the most deprived community among them. Government andother organizations have issued various schemes and policies toempower these communities. Subsequently the literacy level of SCs andSTs has risen a bit today; however their social, cultural, economical andeducational environment is still weak. Most of SC/ ST professors arebehind in their professional career.The research was undertaken to identify various academic andprofessional information needs of SC/ ST professors and to categoriesdifferent information sources that were used by these professors tosatisfy these needs.About 200 Asst. professors and Professors belonging to SC/ STcommunities were surveyed using questionnaire tool. Interviews andobservations were also helpful to understand information needs ofprofessors of this disadvantage group. The study was conducted withtwo cities namely Mumbai and Pune.The study is concentrated on the three aspects of the academic andprofessional needs of the SC/ ST professors namely 1) Teaching andRelated Activities 2) Research and Publications and 3) CareerAdvancement. To satisfy these needs different formal and informalinformation sources were used by the professors.The study illustrated the use of each source of information. TheData collected was summarized in the form of scores. The scoresindicated that research was one area of high level of informationrequirement. The second area was application of ICT. It was followedby the information need about rules and regulation and soft skills.These areas require immediate attention of the SC/ ST professors.12
Annual International Conference on Library and Information Science,4-7 August 2014, Athens, Greece: Abstract BookIuliana BotezanProfessor, Complutense University of Madrid, SpainInformation Policies, EU Library Legislation, GoodPracticesIn the development (definition, execution and monitoring) ofinformation policies three elements intervene: public sector bodies,users and information and documentation professionals. The legislation(derived from the first of the mentioned elements) is the basic pillar forthe correct generation of information and documentation policies. Thisis the main reason why we consider essential to analyse the librarylegislation for every UE member state as to detect the differencesaccording to the reality of each country. This would also enable to showgood practices in the subject. This paper proposes a comparisonbetween library legislation across the EU, a territory so diverse inhistoric, cultural and educational development.13
Annual International Conference on Library and Information Science,4-7 August 2014, Athens, Greece: Abstract BookMiriam Vieira da CunhaProfessor, University Federal de Santa Catarina, BrazilThe Challenges of New Technologies forInformation ProfessionalsThis paper intends to reflect about the changes in the work ofinformation professionals. We are, according to Baudrillard (1991),living "in a universe with ever more information and ever lessmeaning". In this universe, reality may be understood through thenumerous social, economic, and political dimensions that modifyhuman knowledge and action. This movement has lead to the rise ofnew occupations, the transformation of others and the destruction ofmany. It has also meant that fields that were previously distinct, such asspecific work areas in a professional category, are now converging.Technologies change work situations and machines perform routinetasks. It is clear that the group of information professionals is a veryheterogeneous one. Nowadays, the ability to work more efficientlyentails the use of technology, and requires individuals to be effectiveparticipants in the information society. What we are actually seeing isnot a change in knowledge, but a change in the object of informationprofessionals' work – information and its processes. One of the variouschallenges faced by information professionals regarding technologies isthat of visibility, and the openness of net information services. While ingeneral, everything is on the net, sometimes users lose track of it.Understanding user behaviour and their needs, and providing the skillsnecessary to seek information is a basic requirement for informationprofessionals. Everything suggests that the fundamental values ofinformation professions will continue as they are for at least the nextfew years: values associated with quality services, universal access andcooperation. This all leads to believe that the intelligent use oftechnologies by information professionals will feed this circle of changeand of knowledge sharing.14

Giventhat cyberbullying entails defamation or spreading false information orportfolios about someone, it is regarded as a violation of the ethicalcode of information use. The purpose of the study was to explore theperceptions, experiences and challenges of high school learners withregard to cyberbullying. This is a qualitative study that used focusgroup interviews in high schools in Kwa-Zulu Natal province of SouthAfrica. The findings attest that children recognize that cyberbullyingmight have detrimental effects on victims such as alcohol and drugsabuse, low self-esteem, high level of absenteeism, poor grades as welldepression and suicidal thoughts. The study recommends that parentsneed to take cognisance of the probable dangers of the varioustechnologies so that they could be instrumental in educating theirchildren about children cyberbullying. Further, the schools as well asthe Department of Education can play a fundamental role in educatingchildren about cyberbullying as well as cyber ethics.15

It no longer centerson the physical space in which it houses its collection. Instead, librariesshould look at tapping on service innovations and e-Resources.Existing literature on this topic may not have fully explored the rolethat service innovations play in supporting knowledge sharing andlearning, in the context of specialized school libraries for young adults.This presentation explores the development of knowledge sharingthrough service innovations, to raise awareness of library andinformation services at the School of the Arts (SOTA), a pre-tertiaryindependent specialized arts school that offers the InternationalBaccalaureate curriculum in Singapore.At SOTA, the library leverages on Internet and technology for newservices to share knowledge, such as new arrivals alert service, usereducation, information literacy programmes, subscription of specializedarts databases and access to a range of e-Resources for research. Inaddition to the provision of computers with Internet access, the libraryhad enhanced the learning experience of its users with ne
