Creating a Librarian's Blog

Blogging@Your Library

I am presently working on a very intersting presentation for the Refresher Course for University and College Librarians. Library is the "Heart of a Learning Institution" and a librarian meets more students than the teachers or the head of an educational institution. Many studies conducted in American Universities have tried to establish the positive relationship beween good libraries and student progression.
When we talk to students about their reading habits in Mumbai, they often complain about the difficulty in accessing books in the college libraries or unfriendly behavior of the staff. My plan is to create a Librarian's Blog which can give information to members on all new arrivals of books, periodicals and events organised in the library.
I will write more about it after the presentation on 15th January at the Academic Staff College, Mumbai University.
