H.R.Bhardwaj on 12th August 2010 at Raj Bhavan Bangalore and this event was attended by more than 300 Librarians from all kinds of Libraries and noted writers and Vice Chancellors. The Librarians' gathering was really astonishing and demonstrated a message to the professionals that if we are united, we can build the professional image better than the present in the society by adopting right kind of service delivery system; the same has been emphasized by Prof. V.G. Talwar Vice Chancellor of University of Mysore in his address to the gathering. At least such type of meetings and gathering required to be organized to discuss, debate and discourse professional core issues and help the libraries to meet the user expectations by adopting effectively existing ICT. My heartfelt thanks to all the organizers and participants.

Creation of institutional repositories for building the knowledge base of the institution by using eprints, Dspace, Green stone etc. 4. Librarians should use open access resources along with subscribed resources to provide better access. 5. Train the users in search strategies for better usage of resources available and also adapt LIB2 & web 2 technologies. 6. Although engineering college libraries are members of National consortia like MHRD they should come together to supplement the resources not available through national consortia. 7. AICTE should consider apart from norms and standards for adding document resources, the human resource required, based on increasing collections. 8. AICTE should include minimum bandwidth of at least 2mbps specially for the library and corresponding increase depending upon intake, resources to be accessed. 9. Librarians should take information literacy activities in a big way. 10. All libraries should have their website which is linked to the main page of the institution, as it a media for showcasing the services the library is providing. 11. MLIS courses should have an elective paper like engineering and technology Information sources and services. UGC should take initiative in this direction. 12. Appropriate collection development and weeding out policy to be developed. 13. There is a need to do community analysis for developing public libraries.

Walk to the book, March to the library - Congratulations
by N.S. Harinarayana 14 Aug '10

14 Aug '10

Dear Professionals, Congratulations to all those responsible for "Walk to the book, March to the library" event. Kodos to KALA and others who have jointly organised the event. They have, in my opinion, payed a befitting tribute this year to Dr. S.R. Ranganathan in innovative way. The even has inspired not only those who participated but also those who have seen the reports in TV or newspapers. The slogan itself is meaningful, inspiring and attractive. These kinds of movements play an important role to spread the cause of libraries in India. In my opinion the event is an eye opener for many who are wary about libraries. It is to the credit of the organizers who have managed to bring to the occasion people from different walks of life including the first citizen of Karnataka - Sri. H. Bharadwaj, the honorable Vice-Chancellor of University of Mysore Prof. V.G. Talawar; and other literary giants, academicians, information professionals, politicians, students and public. ‘Walk to the book…’ movement should not stop here. Other associations in various cities of India can emulate similar kinds of public awareness programmes about libraries. Many of the current activities of the associations are rather elite in nature and probably not reaching the public at large. I think, in addition to what they are doing, these kinds of events increase the utility of libraries. -- N.S.
