Authors: Narayan, D Shankar
Abstract: &lt;span style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:&#xD;
115%;font-family:" calibri","sans-serif";mso-fareast-font-family:"times="" new="" roman";="" mso-bidi-font-family:"times="" roman";mso-ansi-language:en-us;mso-fareast-language:="" en-us;mso-bidi-language:ar-sa"="" lang="EN-US"&gt;The Education Commission (1964-66) in its&#xD;
chapter on Science Education and Research has observed: "It is unfortunate&#xD;
that most of the quality books in science and technology, even at the&#xD;
undergraduate stage, are still very largely imported, All imported books are&#xD;
not quality books. A large scale import of textbooks in science and technology is&#xD;
not only expensive and costs foreign exchange, but it is bad for our&#xD;
intellectual morals. The country has the talent and other resources required to&#xD;
produce first-rate books, but it appears that what is lacking is determination and&#xD;
planned effort. The Inter –University Board and the UGC should take a lead in&#xD;
the matter so that by the end of the Fourth Plan most of the books required at&#xD;
the undergraduate level and a considerable number at the postgraduate level are&#xD;
produced within the country. It is important that learned and professional&#xD;
societies in the country lend active support and encouragement to the&#xD;
preparation of outstanding books and monographs, and give high professional recognition&#xD;
to such works - it should enjoy a status accorded usually to research."&lt;/span&gt;

Book Year (IBY). It is. There-fore appropriate now to take stock of the&#xD;
situation and see what has been the role of the Government of India in the&#xD;
recent past in the field of books which are now and will, it may be expected, continue&#xD;
to be the single most powerful tool in the dissemination of information and&#xD;
knowledge.&lt;/span&gt;
