New ‘spiritual' spots in Tagore Library of LU evoke reflection

Lucknow: To enhance academic rigor and cultural consciousness, Lucknow University is set to introduce two dedicated spaces at its Tagore Library, a PhD Corner for research scholars and a Swami Vivekananda Corner to honour legacy of one of the greatest spiritual leaders. The twin initiatives are part of the university's broader mission to create a library environment that caters equally to knowledge production and intellectual inspiration. The PhD Corner will offer a focused and resource-rich environment specifically for doctoral scholars. Designed with individual research cabins, the space will be equipped with computers, high-speed Internet, digital databases, citation tools and statistical software. Departments will be allotted specific time slots for access, ensuring a balanced and organised use of the facility. Meanwhile, Swami Vivekananda Corner will serve as a spiritual and philosophical retreat within the library. It will feature a curated collection of books authored by Vivekananda, as well as biographies and scholarly works on his life and teachings. The corner will also display replicas of his robes, slippers, walking stick and other symbolic artifacts, creating an immersive atmosphere that reflects his ascetic lifestyle and enduring influence. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Many Are Watching Tariffs - Few Are Watching What Nvidia Just Launched Seeking Alpha Read More Undo Honorary Librarian of Tagore Library, Keya Pandey, said, "With PhD Corner and Swami Vivekananda Corner, the library is turning into a holistic space that nurtures intellectual and inner growth.
