A New Service for the members: The LIS Links Newsletter
Dear LIS Links Members,
I am happy to inform you all that a new service is introduced for the members. It is the LIS Links Newsletter.
I am attaching the details of this Newsletter but before that, I would like to explain the philosophy behind it. It is an endeavour from the part of the LIS Links founder Dr. Badan Barman where we, the members can take active part in fulfilling the mission: to make aware of the issues both globally and more importantly, locally. It will be a medium of rapid communication of innovative ideas of the members of LisLinks fraternity in the form of technical/research articles which may be fundamental or applied or translational in nature. I shall come up with more details shortly as this is the time for our members to learn about the new initiative.
I earnestly appeal to all the LIS Links members to be frank & open to express their suggestions which the editorial board invites.
With all the best from the editorial Team

Dear Dr. Pachauri
Many thanks for your good wishes.
This is a collective initiative from the part of LIS Links community.
I sincerely believe that this endeavour can become fruitful with active supports from all the members. The Newsletter is their own; a wider platform to help young active minds to blossom, to assist the mid-career professionals shaping their careers more conveniently. To get guidance and wise opinions from the seniors in the profession for the benefit of all concerned.
Sincerely,
Siddhartha S. Ray

Respected Sir,
Its very good initiative from lislink. i am too small to give any suggestion to personalities like you all.
Just presenting one view of my to include following things in newsletter is good idea.
Editorial Column, LIS News, Upcoming Events, Job Vacancies, Book Reviews, New PhD Awardees, New Appointments, Happy Retired Life, Obituary etc. But how it is if separate journal with ISBN of lislink is publish for research papers and case studies.
Research scholars will and upcoming writers are more interested to publish their article in journal than a news letter as it is their primary requirement for their Phd. degree.
One more thing i would like to suggest is valuable tips for research scholars from person like you, Maunesh sir and many other great professionals can also help us to explore more in this field. From place where i belong we find very rare expert whom we can contact for proper guidance. there might be other people like me who have similar requirement.

Dear Ms. Dimple.
Many thanks for your valuable suggestions. The point you have raised regarding journal & newsletter, is natural. Don't worry, there will be ISSN for the LIS Links Newsletter.
Regarding tips to Research Scholars, we shall certainly keep this in our sincere consideration.
And our very dear Munesh Sir is always with us. He is the LIS Links Blog Administrator!!
At this age with so many professional blogs & Social Networking sites distance and locations no longer matter. I personally believe that LIS Links is very fortunate to have so many brilliant, knowledgeable & active members who always come forward to help others.
I am confident that with such active supports from you all, it will be possible to sustain this tradition.
Sincerely,
Siddhartha S. Ray.
