Hello Everybody,
A librarian get the opportunity to welcome the users to library through “Library Induction”
I believe “First impression is the last impression” As librarian, we are the SPOC of the library,so What are the points we should discuss in this welcome event to make it interesting for the users.
In library induction I usually start my session with some never ending discussion like “their view on paperless society”,”Will the technology driven e-revolution kill the libraries?”,discussion on some great books of user interest.” etc.
Then start the formal induction on
About the library
Library Collection,
Timing & entitlement,
Rules & regulation,
Information resources & Services
Library Outreach Activities etc.
Apart from these,please put your opinion what are the other points we should include or discuss with the users in the Induction program to make the induction interesting.

Thanks & Regards
Gayatri

Dear Madam,

I think it is extremely important to have a library induction with our primary clientele. This is true in every case be it an academic library, special library or public library. In school and colleges it is more important because this will clear many doubts and inhibitions in students and library will not be a place to exchange books but a centre of many activities which inculcate habit of reading and make better citizen.
