Dear All,

It seems that we need to discuss the issues raised by Shri Arun, in order to make the library field a little better. The scenario is far from satisfactory. There is no need to blame anyone for the sorry state of affairs. But we need to think of ways for improving the situation. So it seems that the teacher- friends in the forum should start the discussion airing their views. Probably they are are the people who can do something substantial to improve the situation.
