Friends,
It is most shocking news to hear the sad demise of Mr.Kalyan. A Good friend
for all of us and most renowned professional. His tenure in BEL and DRTC
Libraries is highly remembered by his clientele. His involvement in the
professional activities was experienced by most of us. He never posed as a
leader any time, but loved to work as a volunteer in most of our
professional activities. His tenure as a General Secretary of KALA is most
memorable period in the history of KALA.
What is really worrying to most of us is that, the young professionals who
need to carry the flag of the profession need to show their responsibility
and commitment to the profession. We know that the new generation
librarians are most intelligent and knowledgable, but they need to work for
uniting the professionals and project the profession to the society as an
inevitable tool for the society. This role need to be played by the KALA.
Now I request the KALA to organize a Condolence Meeting immediately
possibly in Central College for the sad demise of Sri.Kalyan. KALA should
remember the service rendered by Kalyan while he was its Secretary. Let us
set a good tradition to our young Librarians and communicate them the
services rendered by the senior professionals who have departed from us.
Hope KALA will do this job at an earliest.
Thanks,

Best Regards,
Dr.P V Konnur
