Dear Friends,
I am shocked to learn about the 'sad demise' of our fellow LIS Professional, Shri Satish Deshpande.
I have known Late Shri Deshpande for over last two decades - first, I, as the member of British Library, Ahmedabad (where he had put in his lifetime of excellent service) and later on, as my colleague at the British Council, India.
Shri Deshpande was one of the most dynamic, hardworking, dedicated and resourceful LIS colleagues, that I have had an opportunity to interact, collaborate and work with. He was an 'all-rounder LIS Professional', with extensive practical knowledge in all aspects of Modern Library and Information Services area, covering, Collection Development, Customer Services and Marketing, Library Automation and above all, he was a very good team leader and people oriented person. Shri Deshpande's untimely death is a great loss to our profession.
I am sure, apart from his friends like us, the scholarly and professional community of Ahmedabad is going to miss Shri Deshpande, whom he had served for over last three decades.
I express my sincere condolences to his Family, Friends, Relatives and Colleagues.
May his soul rest in peace.
