Re: [LIS-Forum] LIS-Forum Digest, Vol 204, Issue 43 (Sad demise of Shri L.J.Haravu)
by D.V. Patwardhan 30 Mar '20

30 Mar '20

LIS-Forum Administrator - Kindly publish my following message in Lis-Forum: Thanks D.V.Patwardhan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dear Professional friends, I was deeply moved after reading the messages from my friends that Sri L.J.Haravu is no more. After hearing much about his professional contributions at BHEL-R&D and ICRISAT, Hyderabad, I visited both these places in 1987 to have a personal experience about his contributions. R&D-Library at Kirloskar Electric Co.Ltd., Bengaluru, where I worked nearly 24 years, was getting Tech abstracts prepared by Library of BHEL-R&D for many years and found beneficial to R&D Engineers. Later, I also had an occasion to meet and discuss with him about "New-Gen-Lib software" at a Workshop organised by & conducted at Institute of Information Studies, Bengaluru. Even though he was much knowledgeable person he was friendly and free to discuss any professional topic with professional colleagues. May his soul rest in peace. Regards, D.Vasudeva PatwardhanSr.Librarian (2001-16) (Rtd.)Global Academy of Technology,Bengaluru.
