American Library, New Delhi may start soon.

Dear George Sir.

It is a good topic for informative discussion. Library is a place of information, as input and same as output into the other system may be an organization or users. I don't understand, what will be the use of 3D printer in Library? Can you please make some understanding of mine on this issue?

Thank you. 

It is a appealing  issue to discuss about how and why 3D printers can be leverage to libraries.  I believe that Libraries have a calling to promote research, innovations, creativity and entrepreneurship. 3D printers can be a effective tool to fulfilment of this calling.

Find a article about 3D & Libraries   

3D printers are related to the things, designs which are crucial in planning, teaching and medical treatments. The things can be made is like putting an elephant in a bottle. 3D printer is not a printer is an intelligent machine which produces the shape as desired. It is more useful for the medical concepts clarifications and related studies. It is useful for labs and manuals, publications documents in Libraries. It makes the things as we see on the computer screen so it called printer, prints in 3D.

Please read my article about library makerspace which will appear in a journal shortly. My arguments for 3D printers for library should clarify your unfounded argument against 3D printers. For procuring a 3D printer please mail me for cheaper price. christofhar Sudhir George was very sweet to have an open ended proposition about 3D printers in library.

Dear Sir,

Can I have your article or will it be in open access? 

Dear Sir,

Thanks for the interest shown. I'll send a personal copy to you.

With regards,

RKR

Thank you very much.

Dear Ranjit
Could you please clarify the phrase used here, in the context of the topic. It seems you have done wonderful work on 3D printers. What really you want to convey, "to read your article or anything else".
Please elaborate.

Thanks Mr Kumar for the response. This is exactly the intention I had in mind while I replied to the replies. Especially your ' 3D printers are related to the things" was my inspiration for writing the reply. Keep it up. This is pure polemics Mr Kumar. Someone rightly said, "Discussion was always better than argument. Because argument is to ...

Well...

...remembered the Proverb not the use. "When discussions direct to meaningless, better to drop", I have read somewhere. 

Thank you.
