Imphal, September 22 2012: ON THE last day of the 5-day long national awareness programme on access to library organized jointly by Manipur University (MU) and National Library Kolkata at MU Library today, Prof E Bijoykumar Singh, Dept of Economics, MU has observed that researchers in the university need not have to be made to run from pillar to post in search of information.
Delivering the Presidential address of the valedictory function, Prof Bijoykumar Singh pointed out that one of the most time-consuming in any research is searching for sources and information.
So, most research scholars have to run here and there to collect their requirements.
Now that the library at Manipur University has been equipped with world class facilities that phase of running from pillar to post in search of information would be over.
He also noted that it would be ridiculous to build up facilities only in MU Library without expanding such facilities in other institutions under the varsity.
Speaking as Chief Guest of the valedictory function, Prof Amar Yumnam maintained that a university is become significant only when its library is significant.
Moreover, there is no importance for existence of library in any institutions if users do not use the facilities correctly He pointed out that none of the Indian Universities are among the top 200 best universities of the world, and it's because of the mechanism of operating library in the country.
