Dear Dr Mallikarjun Angadi I am sincerely happy to get this update from your message / mail. I still recall the warmth and hospitality extended by Prof Koganuramath and his team in the 2008 Conference at TISS, Mumbai, when some of us (authors/presenters) arrived from variable locations at an unfriendly hour and there was some confusion with regard to allotment of accommodation. After my presentation, I enjoyed the technical discussions with him and though brief, I could get an impression about his dedication to our profession. I am happy about the decision to bring out a Festschrift volume in his honour - I offer my regards for Professor. I would also like to know the dates and venue of the felicitation ceremony to be held, as you have mentioned in the later part of your mail. If possible, I wish to attend the same. Best regards *Sharmila Ghosh* Consultant (Retired), Library & Information Services MD-17, Mendelevium RareEarth Yelwala KRS Road, Mysore Karnataka 571130 (India) Mob: 9818742924 <098187%2042924> On Fri, Jun 22, 2018 at 12:33 PM, Dr. Mallikarjun Angadi < mallikarjun.angadi@gmail.com> wrote:
