Nice information sir

Dear

   Good morning to all, please don't say the library service is dead because if it will dead, then human being can not be survive in the earth and all progress will stop. So we should not to become negative towards our library services, we should try to improve our library services effectively.

Library is a  heart of Academic Institution. Without library no knowledge no Information. Convince the people and tru to understand the importance of the library.

Dear Friends

Thank you for your thoughtful and supporting reply. Its really very soothing to know that Librarianship is unique and we are all very special and we are standing together.

We have been recognized and appreciated by NAAC in the past three cycles.

The glimpses of our library.With out knowing my service and contribution thank you for supporting me. Knowing my contribution and dedication I feel too painful to accept that word.

Its really I feel that I am professionally being hanged by the committee.

Thanks once again

Actually we are giving our views positively in right direction which is against to the statement made by forum owner. As it is mentioned here that Library college committee declared that "Library is dead". I think they want to attract the attention of college authority to invest more to make it live like other libraries. It might be the terminological issue only. Committee should the definition of phrase, "Library is dead".

 

Dear Friends
Thank you so much for all off you all's support. With out knowing our library thank you for being with us in the time to distress.
Our library has been well appreciated by the NAAC for past three cycles and we were specially appreciated by the Autonomy review committee. Our library was ISO certified.
Please take time to go through our PPt to know more about our library and its services.

Thank you so much for your support
regards
Dr.Nachiar
