ts of things through literature review, which are presently at the heart of LIS Research. I come across LISA, ULRICH's International Periodicals Directory and old dissertation of LIS in our department. By this I come to know how the title is chosen for dissertation. I attended a conference on Web 2.0 which inspired me to take this particular title of my dissertation on wikis.
I started meeting my guide NSH regularly regarding guidance on my topic of study. In the beginning of our meetings, NSH told me to post all the happenings of my dissertation in my blog, which I created for this specific purpose and started posting all the developments regarding my dissertation work. This posting process and feedback helped me to improve my reading and writing skills.
I was unaware of wikis when I entered MLISc. After choosing title of my dissertation, I come to explore loss of things which were hidden to me. I created my own PBWiki to experience the tip of community sharing, online editing and its application in libraries.
My Teacher, My Mentor
"Teachers are like trees, providing us their shadow to achieve heights"
I was lucky to be selected in the group of students, under the NSH guidance I was happy to be involved with NSH team and in the beginning only I got very nice experience, when NSH made me to thorough literature search and work on the topic.
I felt very happy because, he used to inspire us by his words, deeds and used to give us freedom regarding our work as well as life experiences. He used to say on thing that we should always get involved in any work regarding our department because it is our department.
I never hesitated to get solutions for the problem I faced during this tenure. He used to inspire us by telling facts and supplementing them with stories which were practical in nature. In the end he pointed our strength limitations by telling a story of a sage and a thief, which I enjoyed and never forget in my life.
He is a perfect teacher, expected to be.
Happiness is the real sense of fulfillment that comes from hard work.
