Sub: Rejuvenated Libraries for Empowered Users: Dr. TAV Murthy Festschrift Volume, 2012-13

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to propose to bring out a festschrift edited volume in honor of Dr. TAV Murthy, the former director of INFLIBNET Center, India.  Dr. Murthy requires no introduction among the Indian LIS community. He is the first professional to become the Director of Information and Library Network Centre (INFLIBNET), equivalent to the rank of a Central University Vice Chancellor in India. He has played the lead role in establishing the UGC Infonet and E-Journal Consortium under the umbrella of University Grants Commission. He has also initiated several projects for the development of libraries and transformed INFLBNET into a vibrant organization and made it as a catalyst in higher education and research libraries and campuses across the modern India.

The proposed festschrift volume will include seminal and methodologically incremental papers, case studies and research articles in the various themes in Library & Information Science as described below.
