He left this world for his heavenly abode after a prolonged battle against cancer at a private nursing home in Rajarhat. He is survived by his wife, son, daughter-in-law and grandson.Till the last days of his eventful life he was actively associated with library movement in West Bengal. He was born on 24.07.1933 in the then East Bengal presently Bangladesh. Later on he shifted to Kolkata with his family .Since childhood he had seen hardships, had to fight against poverty and eventually got associated with the communist movement. He later on had chosen librarianship as his profession. He had long been associated with the Bengal Library Association certificate course in library science as a teacher. He was associated with IASLIC as a council member, as member of different editorial boards of different IASLIC publications. His journey in this profession started long back in 1963 as a librarian in Ramakrishna Mission Institute of Culture. He then joined IIM Kolkata library in 1964. He came in contact with Historian Barun De and founded Centre for studies in social science and served as a librarian there from 1973 to 1993. Among his several other notable contributions, he is well remembered for writing a chronology on social science in Economic and Political Review. While serving as a librarian in âBhawani Sen Granthagar o Gabeshana Kendraâ he took initiative to apply Marxist theory and laws in historical and social science research and maintained a similar collection relevant to the purpose. He wrote several books including âAkkharer abahon athoba paribartaman granthagar bhabnaâ, âThe Argumentative Indian: sobdo aarsuddhatar swaralipiâ, âBoi Jatha â etc. One of his unforgettable contribution was his editorship of a four-volume book titled âJanayuddha Deshbhag O Bharater Communist Partyâ. Among the books published in English âIndian Political Movements1919-1971: a systematic bibliographyâ and ajoint editorship with eminent librarian Arunkumar Dasgupta titled âReligion Secularism and Conversion in India: a documentationâ are his notable works. As desired by him, his body is donated to N R S Medical College and Hospital for development of Medical Sciences. Sri Ghosh has contributed a lot in development of IASLIC activities.
