S. Kumbar, Deputy Librarian, Mangalore University . Undoubtedly his death has caused an irreparable loss not only to the community of our profession but also to the students and teachers of Mangalore University . His valuable contributions to the discipline of library and information science will remain for ever in the minds of the academicians of the state.             On behalf of the Dakshina Kannada & Kodagu Library Association (DKKLA), I condole his death, pray that his soul may rest in peace and hope that the members of his family may gain strength to bear the loss caused by the tragedy.   Dr Sujatha H.R Selection grade Librarian & President (DKKLA) Sri Venkataramana Swamy College Bantwal-574211, Dakshina Kannada Karnataka State .
