Retirement Announcement - Badan Barman
As I am retiring at the end of February, 2018 from LIS Links to re-dedicate myself to my Department of Library and Information Science, Gauhati University and plan to work in some other projects related to Library and Information Science, it's time to express my appreciation for the great friendships I have had here at LIS Links over the past 10 years. I have written two articles on LIS Links and I hope it will let all of you know about this wonderful platform. You can imagine the job of working as an administrator of a social network platform. It has really been rewarding and discouraging, carefree and tense, delightful and hateful days since 26th February, 2008.
The LIS Links platform will be entirely left to our dedicated LIS Links members and I feel good about them and their activity will be monitored by the moderators. I feel good that I am leaving my work in the capable hands of my moderators and dedicated members. Leaving entirely from LIS Links will not be easy and as such I will oversee the LIS Links from February 26, 2018 onwards.
I have genuinely enjoyed working with our professionals friends from all over India and beyond. I have loved my job as the creator, administrator, moderator and content contributor to LIS Links. I will miss my co-workers and will miss each of you dearly, but never fear; you haven't seen the last of me!
Whenever you make a plan to visit Guwahati, Assam kindly make a plan to visit the Department of Library and Information Science, Gauhati University too. I hope you will accept the standing invitation. Let's keep in touch!

Dear Sir,
Just before I have seen your post in link and little bit confused what happen to you that make you adamant to left your job but when I go through the entire message, I just started to recount your contributions as a moderator of this platform. I have seen your alertness in the every moment regarding any current post or it may be any discussions you have always shown your keen interest. So, your retirement from the platform means somehow we will deprive from something.
As a Junior library professional my blessing always with you and your entire family.
Thanking You.
Very truly yours,
