From the Desk of Vice-Chancellor

BITS Pilani's library, a beacon in the rich mosaic of our academic environment, softly narrates stories of enlightenment and sparks a flame of wonder. Echoing Ralph Waldo Emerson's words, "The library is not just metaphorically but actually the essence of a university." Within its sacred walls, academia finds its expression, research soars, and intellects feast on the rich lore of myriad narratives. It's a place where history sheds light on today, and tomorrow's tales are told one leaf at a time. With its continuously growing digital domain and meticulously assembled collections, our library surpasses the physical confines, evolving into an infinite repository open to everyone. As we step into this new scholastic year, let's pledge to value this repository of riches, nurture a spirit of exploration, and preserve the library as the pulsating core of our scholarly pursuits. In unity, we shall explore its chapters, discover its truths, and inscribe our own saga in the enduring pursuit of wisdom. Happy Learning. Prof. V. Ramgopal Rao Vice Chancellor, BITS Pilani
