From what I understand, the V.P won't be directly helping us..But his support is defintely good
Mr T.P Sreenivasan's group met him and he said it was sad that the British Library was closing. He had used the British Council Library in Delhi as a student. But his advice was to create a good library here which would be a better replacement to this.
If you want confirmation of this comment, ring up Mr. T.P Sreenivasan.
