Dear Friends and Professionals,
I am really being pained and shocked to hear the news of the sad
demise of Dr. H Anil Kumar, Librarian, Vikram Sarabhai Library, IIM
Ahmedabad. This is a great loss to the library fraternity. Myself along
with my two classmates had an opportunity to work along with him. After
completion of our Master's degree, We have started our career as a trainee
in VSL, IIM-A. We had learnt a lot by working in each and every section of
the library and I particularly mention the dedication of VSL staff towards
reaching library services to end users. We were 08 trainees came from the
different part of the country and seeing their dedication to work in
regular activities has changed our mindset and built a strength and
confident to provide the best services as much as we can. After giving
services and heard a good feedback and opinion from the students has
motivated us to work even more. Whenever query comes whether day or night
we were always active and tried to satisfied users immediately. Behind all
these activities there is one and only army man is our respected Dr H. Anil
Kumar Sir. He has a passionate, humble and committed professional, down to
earth and keeping a smiling face always in his face will motivate us to
talk and discuss. Anil sir has given us an equal priority to everyone to
give their suggestion towards library implementation, Many times he
involved himself with us to discuss and share his rich experiences to us.
One thing I would like to say that, VSL IIMA has created a best platform
for our career growth and whatever we are today because of all his selflessness
teaching and guidance.
But a coincidence is he has passed away unexpectedly on the same day
(July 17, 1967 - July 17, 2020) of his birth. Six years ago we had
celebrated but unfortunately, he is no more. On behalf of all our former
trainees, I pray the Almighty to give enough strength to bear the loss of
his bereaved family and may his soul rest in peace.
With Regards.,
