Mumbai attacked by terrorists - Taj - Trident - Nariman House






"Terror Attacks on Mumbai" -

Being Librarians do we have

Any thing to say ?


So many lost their lives, many got injured and struggling

for lifeNow, many are in the trauma of having lost their dear ones

...Home Minister Shivaraj had to resign, distinguished and

dedicated police officers and others died in the process.

The incident and event shook India, shook Mumbai, and

attracted world attention.


About Mumbai these four five days,

: Hope you had watched carefully on TV what happened to

Mumbai. What is our role as a Librarian. Had a

Librarian been at the site of disturbance .... what

would have been his contribution? Can we think of a

situation ... where in a high profile .. highly trianed in

disaster information is posted on the site nearer to

the spot of disturbance. What could be his role in such

a situation. Dont you think ... a could contribute a lot in

mitigating and minimising the losses by offering right

information ... at the neck of the moment? There is

something known as Emergency Librarianship which

deals with the systems and services concerned with

emergency situations .... may be medical urgencies

... may be urgencies in terms of natural calamities....

think about it write back to me. Incidentally there is a

journal titled, "Emergency Librarian" .... unfortunately

I could not get the website of the same as the web

version does not exist. But the journal verymuch exists.


The indication is that Librarians' work apart from

being steady, slow and systematic, also have to deal

with emergecy calls ... and on toes service.

We should

respond to all kinds of situations that the society expects

of us. Then only we can boost of our image as

terminal to the very existence of society.... this kind

of services create our indispensibilities ... which is a

must for evolving a glorious and professional standing.




To see some wonderful clippings on emergency

Librarianship do visit this site :






Best wishes

Librarianship is a noble profession.
