Dear Professionals, The Lis-forum posting of Dr. K.N. Prasad mentioning that he is relinquishing from the services of Sarada Ranganathan Endowment for Library Science (SRELS), Bengaluru w.e.f. 30th April 2016 worries all LIS professionals. His association with SRELS, particularly the contributions in successfully running one of the very few (5-6) high quality Indian peer reviewed journals dedicated to LIS, "SRELS Journal of Information Management" are the ones all the professionals should remember. Just now I had detailed discussion with Dr. Prasad, he is very firm in his decision, owing to lot of personal commitments, although he loves SRELS, with which he has grown for the last 43 years. Although the production aspects of this journal is taken by Informatics, we need equally strong and competent scholar to run the show. Yes, SRELS Endowment has other alternative and I am sure this responsibility will be taken care. Thank you Dr. Prasad, LIS Profession acknowledges your contributions. Please be advising us, especially scholarly communicating youngsters. Regards, "Access E-Resources for Academic and Research Excellence" *- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -* Dr. I.R.N.

Dear Professional Colleagues :
I am relinquishing from the services of Sarada Ranganathan Endowment for Library Science (SRELS) Bengaluru w.e.f. 30th April 2016.
I have been associated with SRELS in different capacities almost since 1973. I had the greatest opportunity to work with professional stalwarts like Prof. M.A. Gopinath, Prof. Parthasarathy and Prof.A.Neelameghan in addition to being acquainted with numerous others.
I have been particularly lucky to be associated with the publications of the Endowment, especially its mouthpiece - SRELS Journal of Information Management.
I firmly believe in the mission of SRELS and hope its legacy will continue all through the future.
I will, however, continue to remain professionally active.
Best wishes,
K.N. Prasad
