Bibliographics for the 983 eprints in the live archives of E-LIS : trends and status report up to 7th July 2004, based on author-self-archiving metadata
No full textThe priority for ideas and philosophy related to "Network Theory" have been traced back and documented by Braun(2004),and credit goes to Karinthy(1929).The IT has empowered to realise it, as the most practical phenomena and it is no more a humour. The OAI (Open Archives Initiatives)and ACIS (Academic Contributor Information System)are progressive in the direction ,which may lead to realise the "Collective Genius" at global level. Focus of present study is on Author-Self-Archiving (A-S-A)Metadata of the 983 Eprints in the Live Archives of the E-LIS (EPrints of Library and Information Science),which were approved till 7th July 2004.The A-S-A Metadata was used for librametric analysis. Self-explanatory bibliographics are illustrated.The highlights include: Conference papers (34%); highest approval, June 2004 (28%); published archives (76%);not refereed (52%); not in public domain (60%); highest self-archiving-author (De Robbio, Antonella).The Nos. of EPrints having single JITA domain specifications were: Theoretical and general aspects of libraries and information(27); Information use and sociology of information(80);Users,literacy and reading(13);Libraries as physical collections(30);Publishing and legal issues(57);Management(13);Industry, profession and education(36);Information sources, supports, channels(113) ; Information treatment for information services, Information functions and techniques (101); Technical services libraries, archives and museums(25); Housing technologies(1); Information technology and library technology(92); and Inter-domainery (395) i.e. having specifications of two or more than two JITA classes

All tergites with setigerous punctures, distribution of punctures less in Gt 1 compared to other remaining segments (Fig. 6); pygidium imbricate punctate on more than half of basal portion and smooth on apical part. Length of metasoma: 5.36 mm. Male. Unknown. Variations. In some specimens, metanotum with coarse deep punctures; carina of propodeal areola not margined by crenulations. Discussion. As per the key of Allen (1975), this new species comes close to Tiphia cinchonae Allen in the following features: lateral side of pronotum with a distinct transdiscal groove; dorsal side of propodeum with submarginal carina, hind basitarsus without groove, dorsal pronotum with complete transverse carina, not inflated hind tibia, Gs 2 without anterior transverse carina, and dorsal side of propodeum without longitudinal carina between areola and lateral margin but this new species differs from T. (T.) cinchonae in the following features: wings brown infumated (in T. (T.) cinchonae, wings yellowish hyaline); carina of propodeal areola margined by crenulations (in T. (T.) cinchonae, carina of propodeal areola not margined by crenulations); tegula brownish black (in T. (T.) cinchonae, tegula yellowish orange), and medium-sized (6.5–11.2 mm) species (T. (T.) cinchonae are small-sized (5.5–6 mm) species). Distribution. India: Goa, Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Uttarakhand, West Bengal. Etymology. The species is named in honor of Mr. T. Biju (Forest watcher at Aralam Wildlife Sanctuary, Kannur, Kerala and former GSDP student of WGRC, ZSI, Kozhikode), who is an expert field assistant and collected various Tiphia specimens for the present study.Published as part of Hanima, Raveendran K.
