Chandrasekhar shared the 1983 Nobel Prize for physics with William A. Fowler. A brief biographical account in respect of Chandrasekhar is also given. The data collected from the comprehensive volumes and annual cumulative volumes of the Science Citation Index were analyzed. In all 401 works of Chandrasekhar were cited 10,359 times during 1965-1980. Out of all the contributions six could be identified as citation classics, having received about 53% of all the citations. Chandrasekhar received several prestigious awards during the last fifty years and reached to the apex in 1983 having received Nobel Prize. The study of this analysis is concluded by stating that there is a high correlation in quantity, quality of works, citedness and receiving honors and awards, and in the case of Chandrasekhar the recognition appears to be belated.</span> Page(s): 177-184 1983-09-01T00:00:00Z http://nopr.niscpr.res.in/handle/123456789/28014 Title: The state of contemporary library development in Tanzania in the context of NATIS Authors: Darch, C M; Gera, J C; Newa, J M Page(s): 166-176 1983-09-01T00:00:00Z http://nopr.niscpr.res.in/handle/123456789/28013 Title: Anglo-American Cataloging Rules 1908-1978: A state of the art Authors: Tikku, Upinder Kumar Abstract: <span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height: 115%;font-family:" times="" new="" roman";mso-fareast-font-family:"times="" roman";="" mso-ansi-language:en-us;mso-fareast-language:en-us;mso-bidi-language:ar-sa"="" lang="EN-US">This paper attempts to describe the development of the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules in the light of various facts having important bearing on these rules.
