November 1990: the first library newsletter which was meant for internal circulation in the various campuses' libraries.

 


Library News

The library first had its newsletter in November 1990. Aptly named Library News, the publication was a single A4 sheet meant for internal circulation only.

Initial contents included announcement of new services, opening hours, and new borrowing policies. Then slowly, as all big things developed, it increased its "extent" to four pages. There was much experimentation with formats for readability.

Then in 1998, Library News was renamed InfoWise, with a snazzy  tagline, "Search smart, not hard".

InfoWise.

InfoWise is a four-page, full-colour commercially printed newsletter that is distributed to staff, students and external libraries. The tagline goes hand-in-hand with the Library's ever-strong zeal to embrace new technologies and Problem-Based Learning. 

Till now, the newsletter serves Library users faithfully with announcements of policy changes, new developments in the Library, and more!

Around 1999, InfoWise went online. Then in July 2002, a new masthead was created so as to give the publication a more contemporary and streamlined look.
