Many burning issues are truly discussed in this paper. At least once, every professional should read this paper. No key research were done after S R Ranganathan. Our senior professionals could not complete the CC7 till date. While SRR alone developed CC1 to CC6 and much more. All library community is eating, whatever was developed by SRR. Today's genuine key problems are very serious in nature and spoiling the profession.
I congratulate the author of this paper to raise the burning issues.

CC7 (2010) is a Bilingual edition (Kannada-English), not a Universal ed. like CC1 to CC6. It takes about 23 years (1987-2010) to complete.

Dear Dr. Saurabh Shukla,

Thanks for your post and for highlighting Dr. Anil Singh's article in the IASLIC Bulletin.

I have gone through the article early this month (received it on 8th. March, 2017). Earlier, I had read some of the articles Dr. Singh has cited in his present article.

I have found Dr. Singh's article quite interesting for some useful and handy statistics and had prepared a sort of review type of write-up for my personal reference for future use. However, upon seeing your post, I thought to share my views in this forum. This is a hastily compiled modified version of my previous write-up and since it is bigger in size nearly 2 and half pages I am uploading it as an attachment file.

Sincerely,

Siddhartha S. Ray, Calcutta
