Award to School librarian S.L. Faisal
by Usha Mukunda 08 Nov '16

08 Nov '16

Dear friends, It is a matter of great importance and significance that our colleague, Mr. S.L. Faisal has been recognised for his innovative and path-breaking work in the field of school libraries. This is an area which is not given much attention even by our own library professional group, I feel, so an award like this is an eye-opener to all that such good work is being done in the critical and all-important realm of school libraries. My personal congratulations to him and to the initiatives he is bringing in. All of us school librarians feel extremely proud of his well-deserved success. We look to him for showing the way for all of us. Congratulations!! Usha Mukunda -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
