A Fruitful Meeting

After finalising my project topic i didn't do anything meaningful for some days...Harinarayana Sir scolded me for my laziness..For citation first we had to collect S.R Ranganathan's articles i.e articles written by him..I searched like hell for a period of 3 days and i am really thankful to all my friends who spent their precious time assisting me..I was really disappointed as my guide had assured me that there were many articles on net...but the reality is that there are to a maximum 20 articles on net. Its realy heartening to find out that there is such a drought for the electronic format of the articles of "THE FARTHER OF LIBRARY SCIENCE "... its high time that initiatives have to be taken to create a dependable data base.. it s at this point of time that the cheif librarian Dr.krishnamurthy sir and my guide asked me to meet Dr K N Prasad the cheif executive officer of SARADA RANANATHAN ENDOWMENT FOR LIBRARY SCIENCE. i am realy thankful to the moment at which i had the luck of acquaintance with him.He informed me that there was indeed a shortage of articles present in electronic format, but he promised to help, and got back to me with the information that they are ready to create a data base for it and i will have to wait a bit longer... i express my gratitude for his timely response and his intiative. Though this means my project will be boxed for some time.. i hope to divert my atentions to other aspects.
