Abstract

The study presents the result of a questionnaire survey administered separately to the librarians and selected users in few engineering college libraries in Jaipur, Rajasthan. The survey addressed five broad areas: Services, Collection, Information Access, Library Staff and General Information about library. The questionnaire meant for the librarian covered aspects such as collection of library, services, building, budget, staff etc. The questionnaire for the users contained objective type questions to assess the user's satisfaction with the various services offered by library. Some information not forthcoming through questionnaire was also collected through interview method. The data collected is presented with the help of tables and discussions. The results generated by the study throw light on the present status of libraries of engineering colleges in the state of Rajasthan.

Abstract

The MACE telescope has recently been commissioned at Hanle, Ladakh, India. It had its first light in April 2021 with a successful detection of very high energy gamma-ray photons from the standard candle Crab Nebula. Equipped with a large light collector of 21 m diameter and situated at an altitude of ~4.3 km amsl, the MACE telescope is expected to explore the mysteries of the non-thermal Universe in the energy range above 20 GeV with very high sensitivity. It can also play an important role in carrying out multi-messenger astronomy in India.
