Mr David, I m a Librarian in Management college, where MBA students are given projects, assignments, and presentations, whose topics are very well chosen keeping in mind the happenings around the world. For this students have to scan periodicals to search for their required material. Its true, students are using not only the latest issues but also the previous issues. This also helps in building their interest in periodicals. Also, for their preparation for exams they consult journals for the case studies..

Dear Friends
I am a Librarian with a self financing engineering college(only BTech/BE) in Kerala. Our library subscribes to around 80 print periodicals in the area of engineering and allied subjects. To promote reading habits of periodicals among students and faculty we have taken initiate like user education, current awareness etc. But the response to these initiatives are meagre. Yearly we are spending around 2 lakh on periodicals. So i need some valuable suggestions from my colleague's in promoting reading habits of our periodicals in optimum.
Hope soon I will receive a lot of suggestion from you people.
Thanking you
Sincerely
Binu David Librarian N J College of Engineering Pothandi Palghat
