Names. They are important. For, they conjure up feelings, emotions, and even expectations.
We, at MGIMS, are about to offer a new library to the medical students, members of the faculty and our healthcare workers. We are excited about the way the library is shaping. Now that we are almost all set to deliver the babyโthe gestation period of the re-designed library was no less than that of an elephantโ we would like the MGIMS library to be named after. The choices areโ a scientist, a researcher, an academician or a physicianโnot necessarily in that order.
We are seeking a name that enthuses and motivates the bibliophiles, as they climb the staircase of the library. A name that evokes respect and reverence among book lovers.
Naming is difficult. We are aware of the challenges and difficulties that this task is associated with. Nevertheless, we shall be happy to see all those associated with MGIMS helping us name the library.
