I dont think anybody canrestrict someone whos might be really interested in doing something. This isour Indian education system, we are not allowed to do something we areinterested in doing something. But forced to do which we do not like at all.Come on people wake up, its high time to restrict something. Do ourprofessionals know something about multitasking? Librarian has to be one,moreover it is his part of professional requirement. Wake up people wake upfrom slumber!!First of all there is hell of misunderstanding about the librarians inIndia, moreover if he is restricted to enhance his knowledge then thisprofession will be drowned. This today's concept of librarian is framedbecause of old professionals who hardly did work towards progress and somainly the professionals are not at all PROACTIVE. Please change yourselfand fit in today's world. Darwins theory holds good for all times.."Survival of the Fittest", keep yourself fit to compete with otherprofessions.Move towards progress-------->Poornima--------->-- "Be Good, Do Good For Good Things Leads To Good End"._______________________________________________LIS-Forum mailing listLIS-Forum@ncsi.iisc.ernet.inhttp://ncsi.iisc.ernet.in/mailman/listinfo/lis-forum

ili - SUGANA'S COLUMN - : Dr. S.R.Raganathan's painting presented to the Department of Library Science, Sri Venkateswara University, 1986


Dr.Ranganathan's photograph on Asha's blog reminded me of my contribution to the Dep. Lib. Scie., S.V. University. I painted Dr. Ranganathan's portrait the day before our annual meet and presented it during the function.

Dr. Ranganathan's concepts remain current even to date. Application of his ideas to address the issues of semantic web technologies needs to be explored.

Have u heard of a Newspaper temple...?

Respected Friends,

In the digital age where it has been assumed that Internet is much sought after source of knowledge, and newspaper can be read on your Blackberry, Here is eye opener news appear.
There is a temple in Dhamtari District of Raipur a place where no gods or goddess are worshiped. In this temple NEWSPAPERS has a divine status here and worshipped daily.
The temple built in 1993, and known as Gandhi Mandir and look after by Halba sect of Gond tribe of the Chhatisgarh.
The locals have string reasons for expressing their faith in print media. This clearly shows in words of Gandhi Mandir priest Balram Markam, which are "The Newspapers are eye openers, create awareness, remain watchful of the evils and crimes in society, inculcate human values and prevent people from committing wrong"
The temple is decorated with various slogans and hymns dedicated to the nation, Mahatma Gandhi and the people who are dubbed the 'Janata Gandhi'.
Here Newspapers and books are considered as any other religious epic. Any newspaper can get here place here without any discrimination of language or region barrier.

The detail of this news can be read with the help of this link:
