COUNCIL MEETING

The Council met on the evening of 18 Feb 2013. Matters discussed were BLA’s participationin the CONSAL library Boulevard at IFLA 2013, CONSAL projects, participation in IFLA 2013and other activities.

EARLIER KINGS OF BRUNEI

One of the articles in Pusaka is about the Kings of Brunei prior to the coming of Islam. Ourhistory tended to begin from the conversion of Sultan Muhammad, the first Brunei Sultan intoIslam around 1376. We tended to forget the earlier kings of Brunei. I remembered when Iwas in Nanjing, the exhibits had Brunei kings or their envoys visit China much much earlier.

This particular article written by Dato Muhammad and Haji Zainuddin outlined several kingsin the pre-Islamic era:-

The Liang Dynasty (502-566) recorded the king named as Pinka and his family was knownas Kaundinya. He was a Hindu-Buddha. He was said to rule over 136 districts and his thronemade out of gold and his footrest silver. His crown had diamonds and was as high as 1 feet.He sent an envoy to China in 518 among other things giving the Emperor a gold carpet. In523, he sent another envoy to give other things.

The Sui Dynasty (581-617), the Brunei king was named Hu-lu-na-po and his family wasknown as Chiari-ya-ka. In 616, he also sent many tributes to the Emperor.

The Tang Dynasty (618-906) stated that the king was very rich. In 669, he sent more tributesto china.

The Sung Dynasty (960-1279) records stated that king was called Raja Hiang-ta. He ownedas many as 100 ships and his soldiers wore armour made out of copper. During the reign ofT'ai Tsung in 977, Raja Hiang-Ta sent an envoy to China headed by Abu Ali, Syeikh Nohand Kadhi Kasim. During the reign of Yuan Fong, the king sent an envoy to China inFebruary 1082, the King sent many tributes to China. According to legends, that king wasknown as Seri Maharaja. After him was said to be Raja Makatunaw and Sang Aji(grandfather to Sultan Muhammad Shah). Source. Bruneidailyresources.com.Posted byRozan Yunos at Saturday, 28 February, 2009

Number of simultaneous users The period of time the library has the right to make the eBook available. The option of outright purchase with permanent availability A limit on the total number of loans permitted Publication date and retail sales.

2. Given a mutual respect for copyright on the part of libraries and rightsholders, any eBooklicensing/purchase options offered to libraries must respect copyright limitations andexceptions available to libraries and their users in legislation including if applicable:

The right to copy a portion of the work Reformat the work for preservation purposes if it is licensed or purchased for

permanent access Provide an interlibrary loan copy Re-format a work to enable print disabled access

Libraries should have the right to bypass a technological protection measure for the purposeof exercising any non-infringing purposes.

IFLA BACKGROUND PAPER ON E-LENDING

This is a brief extract of the main points from the Background Paper.

As part of its work on the 2011-2012 Key Initiatives, the IFLA Governing Board appointed a workinggroup to draft a background paper on digital lending. At its April meeting the IFLA Governing Boardendorsed this paper.

There are a variety of technical, legal and strategic issues which arise from the addition ofdownloadable eBooks to library collections which have led to concern, confusion and frustration forlibraries and their users, publishers and authors. The IFLA Governing Board formed a Working Groupto prepare a background paper on the issues relating to eBook availability in libraries to assist in theformulation of a policy on the matter.

EFFECTIVE SUCCESSION PLANNING AND TALENT MANAGEMENTFOR LIBRARIES AND INFO CENTRES

The three days training was organized and held at the Perdana Leadership Foundationfrom 5-7 February 2013 in Kuala Lumpur. Four Brunei librarians attended the course. HjhPusparaini (ITB), Hjh Rosnani (MinDef ), Hjh Norsenah (DBP).

The programme helps toanswer two fundamentalquestions:• How effective are librariansin succession planningstrategy?• How well-positioned arelibraries in retaining the bestperformers to meet currentand future challenges?

workshop scope• Strategy for succession planning.• Assessing the libraries’ individual competencies and

abilities.

• Developing the methodology for identifying top talent or potential




From page 3The paper attempts to: Provide an overview of the issues relating to eBooks in libraries; Summarise the current positions of publishers in both the scholarly publishing and

trade publishing sectors; Summarise the differences in the way that academic/research libraries and public

libraries address the issue of digital collections; Address the legal context for eLending and library principles that must be upheld in

any suitable models; Provide a detailed legal analysis of e-Lending

E-Lending might be defined as “making a digital object available for use for a limited periodof time and not for direct or indirect economic or commercial advantage”In practice e-Lending is done :

Either by giving the user access to the work for a period of time, after which theaccess is denied,

Or by letting the user download a self destructive version of the work to his own PC

or reading device, so that the file is destroyed after a pre-determined period of time.

For the purpose of enabling e-Lending:we need licensing solutions, e.g. via agreements with publisher’s organizations onstandardized licensing terms which enable libraries to make available on reasonable andfair condition to their users works published in electronic format chosen by the library.

For the purpose of preserving the cultural heritage:we need legal support to collect, preserve and make available all works published inelectronic formats. This work has already started with TLIB being presented in WIPO.Source. Ifla.org/news

LIBRARIES STAYING RELEVANT

There’s no question about it: libraries worldwide are undergoing drastic changes. In manycountries, libraries are in the process of evolving from “warehouses for old books” to vibrantcenters of community, providing high value services that go above and beyond the“traditional” library that we know.In the midst of all this change, there is much talk about theefficacy of the library, and whether or not we need them. Naysayers contend that librariesare passé, and are remnants of a society that we’ve outgrown. However, studies show thatlibraries are still very much in demand, are highly used, and are central to communitieseverywhere.

A Pew Research study indicated that libraries are, in fact, more relevant than ever. Thestudy showed that Americans were increasingly using the library in 2012, for services otherthan borrowing books. For instance, libraries reported that 15% of Americans aged 16 andolder borrowed magazines and journals, and 14% borrowed newspapers. The library alsosaw increases in the circulation of e-books and audio books.

Library PressDisplay is the perfect addition to libraries everywhere, providing yet anotherway for libraries to transition into Digital and reach out further to their patrons. With offlineand remote access available, library patrons can access a collection of more than 2,300 full-content, digitally enhanced newspapers and magazines.Source: Library PressDisplay Blog,17 Jan 2013




PRESENTATIONS @INTERNET LIBRARIAN 2013

There’s no question about it: the traditional perception of the library is rapidly eroding, and we’reincreasingly left wondering what the library “is.” But this isn’t necessarily a bad thing. As a matter offact, it’s an opportunity that many pioneering librarians are taking to reinvent the library as exciting,bustling and community-centric institutions. As Surrey’s Chief Librarian Beth Barlow said, the library isno longer a “warehouse for old books” but is now a vibrant place vital to communities everywhere.

Indeed, redefining the library has been a topic that’s been on the tip of many tongues for a number ofyears now. It’s an exciting subject, and one that’s bringing together people from all different fieldsincluding academia, public service, info-technology and multimedia.

Here are two fantastic presentations delivered at Internet Librarian 2012 on the topic that librariansshould check out:

1. Tomorrow’s Digital Library Today (PowerPoint Down load)

This presentation showcases the innovative design of the Taylor Family Digital Library at theUniversity of Calgary. This library officially opened its doors in the fall of 2011, and has continued tomake headlines since. It’s a revolutionary library, mixing technology, vision and creativity together.

With features like visualization walls, display walls, advanced digital infrastructure and a retro gamesroom, the Taylor Family Digital Library certainly stands apart from the rest. Download the PowerPointpresentation to see their concept plans and the library’s findings – what worked well in the library, andwhat didn’t work so well.

2. Libraries Transformed: Research on the Changing Roles of Libraries (PowerPointDownload)

This presentation was delivered by Lee Rainie, Director of Pew Research Center’s Internet and American Life Project. This presentation is loaded with facts and figures showcasing the manyaspects of library usage. It’s a fantastic resource, showing numerical trends in overall usage, patronawareness of services, assistance requests and e-lending.

Libraries all over the world are leading the digital revolution, embracing innovative technologies and

services. Library PressDisplay is a valued addition to libraries making the transition to digital,supplementing periodical departments with a growing catalogue of over 2,300 newspapers andmagazines from 98 countries and in 55 languages. Source. Http.blog.librraypd.com/2012, 16 Nov2012
