Figure 2: Librarians’ Role

Collaboration
No library is sufficient to meet the needs of all researchers, and must collaborate with
others.
Collaboration with other Libraries
We collaborate with other libraries through Inter-Library Loan. Apart from the local
libraries like Physical Research Laboratory (PRL), Space Applications Center (SAC),
Dhirubhai Ambani Institute of Information Technology and Communication Technology
(DA-IICT), Ahmedabad Textile Industry’s Research Association (ATIRA), etc., we also
co-operate with other major Indian research libraries such as Bhabha Atomic Research
Centre (BARC), CAT, Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR), Indian Institute of
Technology (IIT), etc. to meet our information requirements.
The figure below shows recent statistics.
