Sad News

[Ratan Kumer Das]

Dear professional,

I feel very sad to hear that Dr. Bidhan Kumar Biswas has passed away. He was working as a  Reader at Library and Information Science Department in University of Kalyani, Nadia, Weat Bengal. He died on the last 16th of November, 2011.

So far I know, he was a true friend of the Library and Information Science professionals of Bangladesh. He was supervisor of many Ph D researchers of Bangladesh. He was a guardian of our profession.

In 2009, Dr. Biswas was invited to attend the golden jubilee ceremony of Department of Information Science and Library Management, University of Dhaka.

I wish remission of  this departed soul and express sorrow and grief to the loss of his family .

Great Loss, May god rest his soul........

[Siddhartha Shankar Ray]

I am shocked to learn about sad and sudden demise of our beloved "Bidhan da" as many of us used to call him.

I found him a cheerful and very frank individual who took no time to make friends.

As a professional, I always found him helping and adjusting.

I convey heart felt condolances to his family.
