-------- Original message --------From: Sathya Date: 5/27/18 11:07 (GMT+05:30) To: lis-forum@ncsi.iisc.ernet.in Subject: [LIS-Forum] Venky-ISB no more. A sad Sunday. Dr. Venkateshan, has suddenly left for his heavenly abode this morning, leaving us.

Starting his career as a scientist (metallurgist) in IGCAR, he made librarianship a successful career there and came to national prominence as he moved up in the LIS ladder to IISc and Indian School of Business, Hyderabad. A vibrant, fun loving and amazingly enthusiastic person, he made LIS his cosy and engaging professional home giving it a touch of scholarship. A new annual seminar series, he launched and led three years ago along with Anil Kumar (IIM-A) is a very different and innovative model to remember and continue after him. I worked with him closely when Informatics had launched Infovision 2005, an annual event then.

We miss him. We pray for his soul to rest in peace.
