Cataloguing-in-Publication (CIP) Centralised cataloguing led to the logical step of publishing bibliographic entries of documents in the publication itself, on the reverse side of the title page. Ranganathan called it `prenatal cataloguing. This facility enables libraries to use the bibliographical data available on the book for the preparation of their catalogues. The Library of Congress was the pioneer in this enterprise. The British National Bibliography has also been participating in the CIP Programme from January 1977. Such facilities are yet to develop in countries like India

Before Ranganathan, there were no catalogue codes ever produced In India. Neither was there an established bibliographic/cataloguing tradition. The code (CCC) is the first and theonly code designed in India. It was mostly an intuitive effort but applying scientific method to ensure precision and correctness. This however, does not go to say that the code wasentirely a product of prestine mind. Ranganathan, educated in England had the benefit of
exposure to western thought and practice, which definitely provided the needed backgroundto work out independently. There are, therefore, many influences. Yet the code isdistinctively Ranganathan’s own. What is his own adds to the merit, and what is not to itsweakness.

An accession register and a shelf list are essentially management records of a library and are not meant for public use. Accession register is a data-wise record of reading materials acquired by the library, giving all details about
the documents, arranged in the serial order of documents. A shelf list reflects the arrangement of documents on the shelf.Their proposes are different and hence they cannot be used as a substitute for a library catalogue.

Cataloguing and classification are two interrelated processes that are performed in a library. The basic purpose of these two operations is to aid users in locating and selecting appropriate reading materials required for study, research or any other organization of documents on the shelves of library while a catalogue serves the propose of a retrieval tool and also projects the contents possessed by a library. All these mechanisms are to a large extent. Complementary to each other and together they serve the users in an effective manner to use the library collection.

READING COMPREHENSION-11

by

Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow: 

            If we were to believe the latest reports from medical laboratories, immortality is within human reach. By the next century, the possibility of living up to 5,000 years might well become reality. Does this mean that it’s time to celebrate the conquest of the final frontier of science?  Certainly not. There can be nothing more dismal than the possibility of living indefinitely. What makes life so fascinating is its transient nature. It’s the knowledge that death can come calling at anytime and anywhere which gives such poignancy to our lives. This finds expression in Wallace Steven’s wonderful lines: “Death is the mother of beauty; hence from her, / Alone, shall come fulfillment to our dreams / And our desires”. The idea that death is the key to life is also the foundation of Martin Heidegger’s philosophy of being.

Leaving aside these philosophical considerations, the predictions of immortality are at best based on dubious science. The scientific fraternity rarely takes seriously the prophets of immortality, who say that one can turn back the biological clock or at least keep it constant. But even if we were to assume for a moment that the majority of humans will live beyond 5,000 years, that would spell disaster for mankind.

On the basis of your reading of the passage, complete  the following statements with suitable words and phrases:

  Q1.Man will hopefully live up to 5,000 years in _________________________.

  Q2. What makes life fascinating is____________________________________.

  Q3.What gives poignancy to our lives?

  Q4.Explain: Conquest of the final frontier of science.

READING COMPREHENSION-10

by

Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow:   ( 5 marks )

           The greenhouse effect is when the temperature rises because the sun’s heat and light is trapped in the earth’s atmosphere. This is like when heat is trapped in a car. On a very hot day, the car gets hotter when it is out in the parking lot. This is because the heat and light from the sun can get into the car, by going through the windows, but it can’t get back out. This is what the greenhouse, effect does to the earth. The heat and light can get through the atmosphere, but it can’t get out. As a result, the temperature rises.

             The greenhouse effect makes the earth appropriate for people to live on. Without it, the earth would be freezing or on the other hand it would be burning hot. It would be freezing at night because the sun would be down. During the day, especially during the summer, it would be burning because the sun would be up with no atmosphere to filter it, so people, plants and animals would be exposed to all the light and heat.

               Although the greenhouse effect makes the earth able to have people living on it, if there gets to be too many gases, the earth can get unusually warmer, and many plants, animals, and people will die. Plants like corn, wheat, and other vegetables and fruits would not be able to take the heat. This would cause us to have less food to eat, but it would also limit the food that animals have. With less food, like grass, for the animals that we need to survive (like cows) we would even have less food. Gradually, people, plants and animals would all die of hunger.

On the basis of your reading of the passage, answer the following questions briefly:

1.When does greenhouse effect rise?

 2.Why is the global temperature rising?

Fill in the blanks :

3.Greenhouse effect is essential for our existence as _______________.

 4.Without the greenhouse effect, the earth would be_______________.

 5.The word which means ‘to be able to live by doing efforts’ is________.

HOW TO PREPARE FOR TGT/PGT ENGLISH FOR NVS RECRUITMENT-2022

by

Hello friends,

The greatest dilemma one has before giving an exam is always, where to start with our preparation for the examination. The JNV – PGT & TGT written exam is scheduled and the syllabus looks very wide. As expected, it isn’t an easy task. So, let’s go step wise to know how to start our preparation.

Section A – Reading Comprehension. It is the ability to comprehend, analyse and interpret unseen texts. This part can’t be completed in a week’s days or a month’s days. It requires great concentration, presence of mind. Reading shouldn’t be done quickly or in a hurry. In any exam skimming the passage for specific information, kills time. Don’t read the text several times, instead read the passage in the first time with reasonable speed and underline the new expressions or the expressions which are striking. It is usually preferrable to attempt the reading comprehension at the end of the exam at your pace.  Run your fingers through the passage while reading, it improves the concentration and dismisses the mind from being wavered.

Section B – Just like reading comprehension, writing too requires practice. Give more importance to the format of the writing skills, key words and expressions. As Bacon says “Reading maketh a full man”. Such important skill needs a lot of concentration and application. Understanding the content and applying the knowledge needs focus and years of practice.

Section C- Grammar and Usage. It is obvious that functional grammar is very helpful than the structural grammar. As one prepares for the exam in English, one reads several novels and stories. Biographies and texts usually give practical knowledge, even then having understanding about the Parts of Speech, Figures of Speech, structures and syntax is a must. In the written exam for TGT (subjective) in the year 2012, there was a question as,

Identify the parts of the speech of the underlined words in the sentences given below.

  1. The child is fast asleep.
  2. The train runs very fast.
  3. Sita is in fasting today.
  4. Fasting and Feasting is a novel by Anita Desai.

Although the question paper isn’t subjective, there is every possibility for such questions to be seen. Thorough knowledge of grammar is a must when a candidate applies for the position of English PGT/TGT.

Section D – The most crucial section which decides the destiny is the literature section. The syllabus is vast, there are many things to remember. In reading and writing skills the application part takes the prominent position but in Literature, it is the identification of the characters. There isn’t much to understand. For example, you read all the novels of RK Narayan and understood every story and enjoyed the literature (this is the prime moto of any story) but the questions in the exam checks your identification. “Who is the speaker in the above lines” is the question, one must remember the characters of the stories. Is it Ramani, in ‘The Dark Room’ or Krishna in ‘The English Teacher’, if the candidates fails to recall the protagonists or the characters then years of reading the novels turns to be of no use. So, presence of mind and careful analysis is important in deciphering the answers.

It is said that half preparation is done the very day when one acquires the study material. Instead of preparing the content with the help of practice papers, one must first know the contents of the literature, then practice with the test papers. Different publication books on UGC-NET/SET/JRF English Literature are handy in the preparation for PGT/TGT. Many different publications are available in the market, like ‘Toppers Notes, Bookhive, Barron’s Study Keys and so on. I personally prefer Trueman’s Specific Series, (we have number of books and editions available in the market) as it has vivid description of different ages, writers, content followed by several practice papers.

Finally, I conclude this with a suggestion that whatever one does before the exam, it must be done with positive attitude. Don’t be carried away by the figures and statistics as, none of us are in need of more than one position.  Instead of looking for short-cuts, take a straight route.
