University of Mysore : The first University in the state of Karnataka and the sixth oldest in India, the University of Mysore was established in the year 1916 by then Maharaja of Mysore Sri Krishna Raja Wadiyar IV through munificent grants of land, buildings, and financial resources. Home to a galaxy of stalwarts in the fields of education, administration, arts and sports, the University has earned an international identity for its academic programmes and research activities. With a strong sense of commitment to social justice and equity the University provides access to people from all walks of life. The University of Mysore has always upheld the values of critical thinking, tolerance and open debate.
The University of Mysore has a string of laurels to its credit in the 93 years of its existence. It enjoys the unique distinction of having parented four universities in the state of Karnataka, these being Bangalore University in 1964, Mangalore University in 1980, Kuvempu University in 1987 and the Karnataka State Open University in 1996. With the four districts of Chamaraja Nagar, Hassan, Mandya and Mysore now under its jurisdiction, the University of Mysore has under its wing 4 constituent colleges and 183 affiliated colleges offering its undergraduate programmes.
The main postgraduate campus of the University is located at Manasagangotri, which offers a panoramic view of the Kukkarahalli Lake and the Chamundi Hills, two of the citys most prominent landmarks. The campus houses 41 post graduate departments offering 75 post graduate degree and diploma programmes. The two post graduate centres of the University are located at Hassan and Mandya, and offer postgraduate in select disciplines. Postgraduate programmes are also now being offered in a few constituent and affiliated colleges.
The University of Mysore has a great research tradition. It has gained international repute for its research contributions in the field of pure and applied sciences, language, literature and social sciences.
The University has also created a special provision for identifying and recognizing select institutions for conducting degrees/diplomas/ research programmes of the University of Mysore. The University also has arrangements with universities abroad for offering twinning programmes.

COLLNET and ISSI COLLNET is a global interdisciplinary research network of scholars who are concerned to study aspects of collaboration in science and in technology (see COLLNET web site at: http://www.collnet. de/). This network of interdisciplinary scholars was established in January 2000 in Berlin with Hildrun Kretschmer as coordinator. Since that time there have been 9 meetings: the first in Berlin, September 2000, the 2nd in New Delhi, February 2001 and the 3rd in Sydney (in association with the 8th ISSI Conference), July 2001. The former ISSI President Mari Davis has mentioned in the Newsletter, July 2003: Importantly, ISSI needs alliance with other groups, such as COLLNET, for broader reach among a range of interdisciplinary researchers and to encourage new thinking and perspectives on investigations in science and in technology. The 4th COLLNET Meeting took place on August 29th in 2003 in Beijing in conjunction with the 9th International ISSI Conference; the International Workshop on Webometrics, Informetrics and Scientometrics and 5th COLLNET Meeting in Roorkee, India, in March 2004. The 6th COLLNET Meeting took place in association with the 10th ISSI Conference in Stockholm, Sweden, in July 2005 and the International Workshop on Webometrics, Informetrics and Scientometrics and 7th COLLNET Meeting in Nancy, France, in May 2006. The Third International Conference on Webometrics, Informetrics, Scientometrics and Science and Society & Eighth COLLNET Meeting took place in New Delhi, India, in March 2007 (http://www.collnet- delhi.de), the Fourth International Conference on Webometrics, Informetrics and Scientometrics & Ninth COLLNET Meeting in Berlin, Germany in July 2008 (http://www.collnet- berlin.de) and the Fifth International Conference on Webometrics, Informetrics and Scientometrics & Tenth COLLNET Meeting in Dalian, China, in September 2009 (http://www.wiselab. cn/collnet- dalian

involved in knowledge transactions in the sense of organization of
collections, systems leading to context based indexing and techniques in
handling and representing knowledge. In the digital information world
representation models are increasingly based on traditional and
theoretical foundations of knowledge transactions. Legacy methods based on
principles of Knowledge Organization are now being adapted for Knowledge
conceptualizations and representation and developing representation
languages, knowledge architecture and structures. At the same time
knowledge modeling using popular W3C-SKOS, NKOS and RDFs are being
implemented especially to structure, organize and manage information
resources. Documentation Research and Training Centre, Indian Statistical
Institute, announces a seminar on 'Knowledge Transactions' to bring
