ABSTRACT: Digital literacies and new media are crucial in determining how people engage with information in the digital age, according to library and information science. With a focus on technical competence, ethical considerations, and critical thinking, digital literacy includes the abilities required to efficiently navigate, assess, and produce information across a variety of digital platforms. The ability to identify reliable sources is crucial as the amount of information available online keeps increasing. In the meantime, new media, which is distinguished by its interactive features and user-generated content, changes conventional means of disseminating information.....

ABSTRACT: This research explores the significance of family lineages in Pahari art, focusing on the legacy and recognition of these artistic traditions through the pioneering work of Dr. B.N. Goswamy. Pahari art, flourishing in the Himalayan regions between the 17th and 19th centuries, owes much of its stylistic evolution to the hereditary transmission of techniques, themes, and iconographies within prominent family schools such as those of Pandit Seu, Nainsukh, and Manaku. Dr. Goswamy's extensive research has been instrumental in highlighting the role of family traditions in shaping.....

ABSTRACT: The Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) is characterised as a disruptive period propelled by advanced technologies including artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, and the Internet of Things (IoT)(Schwab, 2016). It is frequently depicted as a transformative change that will revolutionise our living, working, and interaction paradigms. This narrative has encountered much criticism from multiple perspectives. Industry 4.0 signifies the integration of physical and digital realms, representing the subsequent evolution in unifying traditional and contemporary industrial technology(Fourth Industrial Revolution | Epo.Org, n.d.). This will culminate in the "Smart Factory," distinguished by versatility, resource efficiency, ergonomic design, and direct integration with manufacturing partners. The main purpose of this research is to understand the basic concepts of fourth industrial revolution, its impact on developing countries, the business model to integrate the society with new technology, major criticism highlighting its effect on various key stakeholders of society and other agencies.....

ABSTRACT: The aim of this research paper is to present a new MSL (mathematical symbolic language) that expand the use and applications of the English alphabet, offering a specific and intuitive framework for explaining and representing mathematical concepts. The proposed language seeks to enhance clarity and accessibility in mathematical communication while promoting a deeper understanding of complex ideas. Additionally, this symbolic framework aspires to serve as a robust tool for artificial intelligence (AI) systems, facilitating a better understanding of mathematical expressions and advanced reasoning in mathematical contexts.

ABSTRACT: The role which cost volume-profit analysis plays in business decision making process can neither be underrated nor over- emphasized. This paper attempts to define the basic concept of cost volume- profit analysis both in mathematical term for those who are mathematically oriented and in graphical term for those who are mathematically biased. Simple application of cost volume profit analysis were made with regards to; change in fixed costs and sales volume, change in variable cost and sales volume, change in fixed cost sales price and sales volume and recommendation made to who would be an investor.......

ABSTRACT: Libraries have evolved significantly in the digital era, transitioning beyond their traditional roles as repositories of physical books to become dynamic community hubs that strive to meet diverse informational, educational, and cultural needs. In this context, social media has emerged as a powerful platform to enhance patron engagement, create interactive experiences, and expand library services beyond physical walls. This research paper explores how social media outreach influences library patron engagement, with a focus on success factors and best practices that can guide l.......
