Dear Professionals,
Prof. Talawar created a record four years back in India as he has been the
first VC
coming from Library and Information Science Community. His new appointment
as
Founder VC of Reva University at Bangalore is another feather in his crown.
I have seen
him for the last 36 years or so as humble librarian initially at BEL later
at Mangalore
University, then as Professor of Library Science, Director of UGC Academic
Staff College,
Registrar and four years back as VC at University of Mysore. I had an
opportunity of working
closely under his guidance as Visiting Professor and Library Adviser at
UoM. During his regime
as VC the university bagged highest number of projects fetching more than
200 Crores, resulting in
enviable infrastructure in terms of buildings, instrumentation, IT, etc.
Library, which was in its lowest
web got rejuvenated to be one of the best of its kind in the country. A
number of new courses
were started, both academic and career oriented. For the last 8 years or so
he would have slept
not more than fours a day as he used sit upon the job seriously
irrespective of time and his
tiredness. His seriousness and hardworking nature suits much more in
private sector. Probably
the present assignment private university is a God given reward for his
hard work.
Lets us congratulate him and wish him all the best for his new assignment
on behalf of
Library Professionals all over.
Regards,
--
