To ensure top-tier service, we’ve focused on staff professional development, with attendance at workshops on emerging library technologies and user experience optimization. These efforts aim to equip our team with the skills to better serve our growing community. The third issue of the MANIT Bhopal Library Bulletin highlights these activities along with some other new initiatives undertaken at the Central Library during the last two months.
