Friends, colleagues and admirers of P.V. Konnur, the library science professional and president of LIS Academy, Bengaluru, felicitated him on his 75th birth anniversary.

The Amruta Mahotsava was held at the Dr. Manmohan Singh Bengaluru City University on Thursday.

Ramesh B., Vice-Chancellor of Dr. Manmohan Singh Bengaluru City University, released the felicitation volume brought out in Prof. Konnur’s honour and he said that such a dedicated librarian is very hard to find today, and that Prof. Konnur is a role model for budding librarians.

He observed that the librarian’s role has become more challenging, as students now have to be drawn back to libraries from their mobile phones. He urged Prof. Konnur to lead this movement and to help university libraries become experiential centres.
