Dear all, Wishing you all Happy New Year! Happy to share the interview transcript of Ganga Dakshinamurti, a long-time library professional in Canada. With over fifty years’ dedicated service in the library profession in Canada, she has worked in different segments of academic librarianship from college to universities, advocating and practicing information literacy programmes for the effective utilisation of resources. She retired from the University of Manitoba in December, 2015 and is currently a Senior Scholar at the University. In this interview for Open Interview https://openinterview.org/, she talks exclusively on information literacy services which she practiced since the mid- 1960s in the Canadian academic libraries. She believes that the basic goal of information literacy is still unchanged irrespective of limited resources in the past and the exponential growth of information sources and tools in the present. She is of the view that there is no foreseeable end to this explosion of information sources and therefore educating the patrons about the effective use of resources is necessary.
