Mr.K C Gangadhar awarded Ph. D. Degree

Dear All, I?m happy to inform you that Sri K.C.Gangadhar who is working as Senior Librarian in Nitte Meenakshi Institute of Technology has been awarded Ph.D. by the Rayalaseema University for his research on the topic ?Comparision of Open Access and Commercial Library Automation Systems: A Meta-analysis? under the guidance of Dr. M.Vasanthakumar, former Sr.Librarian of Adichunchanagiri Institute of Medical Sciences, Bellur Cross,Nagamangala Taluk, Mandya Dist.Karnataka, who is presently working as Head - Technical Section, Imam Abdulrahman University (IAU), Dammam, Saudi Arabia.

K.C.Gangadhar has several publications to his credit in reputed journals and conference proceedings. He is the one who cleared UGC-NET examination in 1993.He fought against the bureaucracy when KPSC called for Librarian post in First Grade Colleges with qualification MLISc with UGC-NET and one more Master Degree. Though MLISc is also a Master degree, KPSC fixed two Master Degree qualifications for the Librarian post. He fought alone in Karnataka Administrative Tribunal (KAT) without support from any Library organizations, though judgment came in his favour, KPSC not responded positively. Again he approached KAT for ?Contempt of Court? and got the order in his favour. But by that time state Govt. stopped all appointments due to financial crisis.

I wish him success in his future endeavors.
