Anil, Thats right. Librarians normally get restricted to their own domain and we do not have very many cases like this. Of course it demands lot of factors favoring the candidate, apart from ones potential and interest level. Even in the corporate world where its comparatively easier to shift service streams, librarians (including me) seem less adventurous. Anyway discussions apart, all the best to Dr Kemparaju who is getting into such challenging admin / executive roles in universities. Cheers !!

Proud to know that he has joined Mangalore University as the Registrar. My best wishes to him and am sure he will prove to be an asset to the university. I am very glad that LIS is going beyond traditional boundaries. Though not a first case, that LIS professional is becoming a registrar, it calls for celebrations. Congrats Kemparaju Sir!
