			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Centre for Information Studies, Bangladesh (CIS,B) and the United Nations Information Centre (UNIC), Dhaka, jointly organised yet another training in Information Literacy and UN Literacy, 15 – 16 September, Poil High School, Habiganj, district of Sylhet, Bangladesh. Information Literacy is a critical life skill for all students, it´s basic for the common people to make effective use of the Right to Information Act (RTI). The Right to Information is the key to all other rights. It´s among the most important instruments to effectively empower those to whom power should belong in democracy – the people. The 2008 elected Government of Bangladesh adopted the Right to Information Act in the first session of the 9th Parliament on March 29, 2009, marking a significant step forward in fulfilling the constitutional pledge of the state of Bangladesh. CIS,B and UNIC started travelling the whole country giving training at grass-roots level in information skills, empowering the common people and strengthening democracy by establishing a corruption-free society.</p>
<p>Training was presided over by Chairman Mohammad Shamsul Haque, Head Master of Poil High School, Habiganj. Chief Guest was Mahmud Hassan, Deputy Commissioner Habiganj and Guest of Honour Kazi Ali Reza, Officer in Charge, UNIC Dhaka. Special Guests were: Syed Ahmadul Haque (Chairman, Habiganj Upazila Parishad), Upazila Nirbahi Officer, Habiganj, and Md. Rafiqul Islam, DSEO, Habiganj. Dr. M. Mezbah-ul-Islam, Associate Professor of Dhaka University (Department of  Information Science &amp; Library Management), M. Moniruzamman, Senior officer of UNIC and Minhaj Uddin Ahmed, Director of CIS,B, facilitated the training course as resource persons.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Daily Prothom Alo (DPA) conducted a workshop on Archives and Records Management (ARM) for DPA  trainees on the 20th of August 2011. DPA supports the Right To Information Act of Bangladeshi citizens and Rule of Law (2009) through implementation of effective ARM. Prothom Alo (First Light), founded on 4 November 1998, and nowadays with an average circulation of 435.000, is a major daily newspaper in Bangladesh, published from Dhaka in the Bengali Language. Support of a mayor newspaper on this issue is important, it helps spreading awareness on good governance in Bangladesh in the wake of RTI. Following students participated the training:<br />
Sarder Abdul Matin (Library), Chandra Rani Saha (Library), Md Mizanur Rahman (Library), Md Anwar Hussain (Centre for research on Liberation War), Hasan Tareq (Advertisement), Manjur Hussain (Advertisement), Ismail Hussain (Advertisement), Ezazul Haque (Advertisement), Anisur Rahman (Advertisement), Faqrul Islam (Advertisement), Shamim Khan (Human Resource) and Saiful Alam (Circulation). Mr Mohammad Elias, senior archivist of Bangladesh National Archives, with the help of Encompass student Azizul Rassel, gave demonstrations on preservation of records. Professor Sharif Ahmed, president of Bangladesh Archives and Records Management Society (BARMS) and director of the Asiatic Society, concluded the training.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>August 19, Heritage Archives (HA) in Rajshahi was honoured with the visit of Finance Minister Abul Mal Abdul Muhit for launching the Heritage website (http://heritagearchivesbd.org/). HA has already earned trust from the people. It now receives collections on a regular base, Heritage Bhaban (building) was extended recently and now HA got a new boost with the launching of the website.<br />
Heritage Archives was established on 23 of March 2002 in Rajshahi (300 km. west of Dhaka) by History professor dr. Md. Mahbubur Rahman from Rajshahi University, Secretary of BARM Society. It is an independent professional depository of important documents, photographs, leaflets, posters, private correspondences, journals and periodicals, magazines, local history books and audiovisual and digital items. It aims at creating a new type of open, service-oriented and user-friendly archives in Bangladesh. Although not that big, HA can be compared with the International Institute of Social History in Amsterdam (IISG) for its focus is on:<br />
1.	Social movements (pro-democracy, labour, students, peasant, women, environmental, Islamic, nationalist, human rights) and<br />
2.	Social transformation (emergence of NGO’s, urban growth, new entrepreneurial groups, labour migration, popular culture).<br />
For that reason, professor Willem van Schendel, head of Asia Department of IISG, visited HA more than once for research reasons.<br />
HA recently received a donation of about 20 meters long records from a retired professor of Rajshahi University. Mostly rare periodicals, little magazines, journals and rare books on Bangladesh.<br />
The volume of collections in the Heritage Archives is increasing day by day. The immediate task is to make the classifications of the collections. Till now professor Mahbubur Rahman himself used to make the classifications and enlisting them. But because of the time consuming work volunteers are helping Mahbabur with the technical works. Volunteers are mostly students of Mahbabur of Rajshahi University and they stay in HA for a certain period.  Heritage Archives has reached to such a position that it can not depend anymore on volunteers only. It now needs a full time cataloger, a computer operator and a researcher who in the future could be the replacement of professor Mahbabur Rahman in HA. At the moment HA is not financially able to appoint any  permanent staff. So Financial support is badly needed. Also for the survival of Heritage Archives BARM Society (Bangladesh) and Bangladesh Archives and Records Management in the Netherlands are working firmly together. Visit of Abul Mal Abdul Muhit is considered as a big support for Heritage Archives.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A new boost for Bengal history was given these days by Encompass student Azizul Rasel from Barisal, Bangladesh, starting the virtual community <strong><em>Centre for Bengal History Studies</em></strong> on Facebook. All the scholars around the world who are interested to be part of the community are warmly welcomed to join. The CBHS community aims at promotion of research and study of Bengal History from pre-historic times to contemporary period. Azizul participates in the three years Encompass programme hosted by the Department of History at Leiden University. Encompass stands for <strong><em>Encountering a common past in Asia</em></strong>. Encompass students receive training in reading and working with valuable Dutch source material, as well as a broad introduction to the kind of history that can be written by using these sources. They will also have the opportunity to develop their general research skills. The programme stimulates students to develop a global outlook in their studies, and to use Dutch primary sources to write local and regional histories that go beyond the traditional colonial interpretations. Already 130 people joined CBHS community.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>June 30, two days before departure for a two months holiday (July &#8211; August) to Bangladesh, Encompass student Azizul Rasel (origin from Barisal), payed a visit with Florus Geraedts and Sigfried Janzing to restoration studio Hoogduin Papierrestauratoren Delft, Holland. This visit was organized especially for Azizul to make a presentation for staf of National Archives of Bangladesh when in Dhaka. Hoogduin is one of the best restoration studios in Holland, Willem Hoogduin and Ted Indewey &#8211; Gerlings, owners, having a lot of international experience (Projects and transfer of knowledge in National Archives of Surinam, Tamil Nadu Archives, Chennai, India and Arsip Nasional Republik Indonesia, Jakarta). Willem and Ted gave us a warm welcome before starting their tour through the studio, showing us various types of document-damages (damage caused by moisture and insects, ink corrosion e.s.o.) and restoration &#8211; techniques (leafcasting, Japanese tissue paper repair). Willem Hoogduin took time to show the working of the leafcasting unit, a device developed by Hoogduin and very much exported because of low costs and easy technique. See pictures below. For more information on restoration and conservation see the Tanap website: www.tanap.net. We wish Azizul luck in Dhaka with his presentation for NAB. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Bangladesh Archives and Records Management Society (BARMS), National Archives of Bangladesh (NAB) and Heritage Archives (Rajshahi) don´t stop their efforts by their own and together for spreading awareness on Archives and Records Management in the context of the Right to Information Act (RTI, 2009). Their goal, the improvement of the system of Archives and Records Management as backbone of the Information System in Bangladesh, got and will get a further boost taking into account these past and coming events:<br />
1. Campaign for RTI (promotion of RTI Movement) and Rajshahi Sports Archives at Rajshahi Festival in Dhaka, June 21-25, 2011. Organised by Lt. Col Lutful Haq. In the RTI-stall sportsmen can get forms to record their data; books, posters, leaflets and brochures about the Right to Information will be available for the public. A board with the history of Boro Kuthi (Dutch Silk Factory, Rajshahi) will appeal to everyone to come forward for its restoration, volunteers will wear T-Shirt marked with Boro Kuthi;<br />
2. With the financial support of the Government of Bangladesh, National Archives of Bangladesh conducted a training-programme on Archives and Records Management (ARM) for the personnel of various records creating agencies in the country. The last two months the staff members of NAB and BARMS conducted ARM courses for record keeping and records responsible staffs of District Collectorate Offices, Divisional Commissioners Offices, District Council Offices, Police Superintendent Offices, City Corporations, Public Works Departments, Local Government Engineering Departments, District Judges Offices and Roads &amp; Highway Departments in 7 divisions: Dhaka, Chittagong, Rajshahi, Khulna, Barisal, Rangpur and Sylhet. Some 250 staffs were trained in ARM (see also blog report of May 11, 2011);<br />
3. Professor Mahabub Rahman of Heritage Archives Rajshahi (HABHT) is collecting successfully  oral sources on the Liberation Movement (1971) and is working on the new HABHT Magazine;<br />
4. Other activities in progress are the 5-days Train of Trainers course (location: in NAB or Opsonin Pharma), September, by mr. Farid Ahmed and 2 of his teachers of the Delhi based National Archives of India School of Archival Studies (NAI / SAS) with possible support and participation of mr. Savumthararaj Gopal of the National Archives of Malaysia;<br />
“Things are moving in a positive direction”, says Lt. Col Md. Lutful Haq (retd), board member of BARMS, but in his opinion still at too slow a pace. Lt. Col. Lutful Haq,  now responsible for the RTI-Movement, wants young members, participants, for BARMS to help spread awareness for good governance, i.e. a sound information system for democratic control of government by the people of Bangladesh. So this report is too a call for students to connect with BARMS and help spreading awareness for still better information management in their country.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A new series of pictures which I received from Muhammad Mezbah-ul-Islam, Ph.D. Associate Professor of Department of Information Science &amp; Library Management (ISLM), University of Dhaka, Bangladesh, about the Information Literacy programme organized by the Centre for Information Studies (CIS,B) &amp; United Nations Information Centre (UNIC) -Dhaka. These pictures were taken during the Information Literacy Training Programme at Saver Girl&#8217;s High School, Dhaka, on 30-31 of May, 2011. IL programme is an important element in the government´s vision &#8220;Digital Bangladesh by 2021&#8243;, corner stone of the Charter for Change. The Digital Bangladesh vision is unique as it proposes to mainstream ICT as a pro-poor tool. </p>
