Re: [WhatsUpUoH] Why Computers Are Closed on Saturdays and Sundays at IGML?

Abu, I would imagine that you would by now know the secret to surviving on campus - ask for paperwork!

If someone tells you "No computers on Saturday and Sunday!", just go ahead and flip the switch on, and ask them to show you a signed and sealed order which says deems that computers should not be switched on during the weekends. When they inevitably say they don't have it, and yet insist on their babugiri, ask them to write a letter saying they wilfully denied you access, sign it with the date, and give it to you. By then, most people should back off. If they don't, you back off, but humour us by sharing the letter they wrote :) Also send a copy to the VC, cc The President, cc most news media.

P.S: the main switch for the computers and router is on the right side, above the last computer.

Dear Librarian Sir,

I came to library today and found that computers are closed. I asked the staff there and they said that we don't open computers on Saturdays and Sundays. One staff said that he does not have an answer to this but possibly librarian sir can have a say on this.Thus, I am writing to you.

If Library can be open on Saturdays and Sundays, then why not the computers? I am sure on working days you don't have a special technician to look after the computers. There might be some switch which needs to ON during Saturdays and Sundays as like other working days. Your staff who keep reading newspapers or nod there throughout the day can look after the computers too.

So, dear sir, its not a big deal. Please keep the computers ON during Saturdays and Sundays. It will be helpful for many students. Or else what is the point of having computers there.

Further, the WiFi is not working in library from couple of weeks, can you please make sure that it becomes functional soon. 

Next Saturday, while I walk into the library, will be glad if the computers are ON and Wifi working. Or else I will bring it into the notice of higher authorities.

Thanks a lot.
