Who we are

ABOUT BOSLA

The Bombay Science Librarian’s Association (BOSLA), established in October 1977, emerged as a response to the pressing challenges faced by scientific libraries in the mid-1970s. During this time, librarians working in scientific institutions realized that their existing resources were insufficient to adequately meet the needs of the scientific community.
