See LIS Links spends a lot in server and software. We have to recover that cost. So we made disseminating the research questionnaire a paid service of LIS Links. Kindly consult paid option for more information in this regard.

LIS Links should look like a community than a single person’s child

Yes, some people contributed a lot towards the site, and so they are promoted a little bit. I think it is justifiable. Even if you devote sometime towards the site to achieve its goal then you will also get that opportunity. But we are still a community and not a single person’s child. See, in the apex level there must be someone to take care of it, it’s just like a traditional organization that have a director, secretary and so on.

We already removed the paid membership option of the site. The lists of paid members are available over the site. Now we run on advertisement and donation.
