This is great initiative, that Academic Libraries Like Calcutta University is being opened for Public. I believe all academic libraries including School, Colleges and Universities needs to be opened for public, may be on nominal charges throughout India. This step will boost Public Libraries of India and every individual will get facilities of Libraries around the country. In this connection, Commercial reading halls are emerging in the market to facilitate the users and meet their demands charging huge money. To stop this, above decision (Calcutta University is being opened for Public) is an counter attack. Even government in power needs to think and act on this. Request all other librarians to make efforts to open their libraries to public, particularly to get connected with public and maintain our (Libraries and librarians) status in the society.

Speaker – 01 No. for voice clarity during program 4. Systems / Laptops for the participants in the lab or wherever institute / college wishes to organize the program for their staff. 5. Skype ID 6. Web Cam (Required only if you wish to see me in your computer / laptop 7. Internet Connection with good speed during program *What to Do?* The institute/college has to arrange the above items in the lab and connect with me through Skype ID. Rest of the training will be given on-line to the staff. *What topic can be?* *Koha, DSpace, Joomla, WordPress, Open Journal System, Zotero, Mendeley, E-Resource Management* If any college / institute wishes to organize, may plan and let me know accordingly to schedule.
