Dear GKM, I am aware of the active participation and co-operative spirit with which you and your colleagues from IGIDR help and contribute to Lis-Forum. I have personally benefitted through such postings. My comment was more of a lamenting nature on the lack of interest in general. Kindly keep up the great work you are doing in IGIDR.

I can answer why we did not reply inspite of having the 1997 SSCI index. Some time the email server vill be down and in such case either we do not receive the mails or will be unable to answer the query. This one such stray incidence. IGIDR library staff are actively participating in the LIS FORUM and we have been thanked by many professionals for providing timely information. During the last survey conducted by NCSI students, we stood some where in 6th position in terms of active participation. thanks g.k.manjunath ************************************************** CHIEF LIBRARIAN INDIRA GANDHI INSTITUTE OF DEVELOPMENT RESEARCH FILM CITY ROAD ( GEN.VAIDYA MARG ) SANTOSH NAGAR GOREGAON ( EAST ) MUMBAI - 400 065 INDIA e-mail : gkm@igidr.ac.in http:// www.igidr.ac.in/lib/library.htm phone 91-22-28490653 ************************************************
