President’s Note..
I am delighted that Muhammad Shahid Soroya – Secretary General PLWO has added
another feather in his cap. Now he has become Dr. Muhammad Shahid Soroya. He
worked hard and made his place not only in practical librarianship but also in academics.
So he has secured the well-deserved Ph. D. degree. I, personally as well as on
behalf of all team members of Pakistan Librarians Welfare Organization, congratulate
him on this marvelous achievement

Elections of Pakistan Library Association (PLA) are onset. They demand sensible
approach. We should proactively participate in the process whether we contest these
elections or not. It is our moral duty to support people who have potential to deliver.
Now it is time to motivate other professionals to take membership of the association
and fulfill professional duty by participating in elections. I believe that change can be
brought through democratic process.
In last, I would like to appreciate the efforts of PLWO team members who worked in
organizing 2 nd PLWO annual dinner and musical night. Team members of PLWO
Federal Branch deserve special appreciation and I urge that we all should spare a
little more time from our busy lives to work voluntarily for our professional fellows.
We can only excel through hard work, dedication and sense of responsibility.
We need to carry on by every means in all situations. So keep your heads high with
pride and continue progressing.
My best wishes for all of you
Thank you and regards
