Documentation Committee Dept Of English MKBU 2018

 Introductory Blog of the             Documentation Committee 2018

Hello Readers,

                        This blog has created with the purpose of sharing work and information regarding Documentation Committee of Smt. S. B. Gardi Department of English MK Bhavnagar University.

                 Documentation Committee

"Documentation is an important aspect of accountability which not only provides a record of the work being done but also recognizes efforts and reinforce the system"

                                                                         

           *Importance of Documentation*

General meaning of Documentation is a 'Material which provides official information and evidence and serves as a record'. In any field there should be documentation. Which keeps the event alive for longer period of time. If history is not documented very well by someone then perhaps we do not have the knowledge about it.

"If it is not in writing, it didn't happen". People would not believe in your words if do not document the things properly, for example if you tell your friends that I have done this thing but they do not believe and ask proof like today's screenshot. So, proof is much important to be trustworthy. One should cultivate the habit of document like Western people who always with Pen, dairy and camera. History depends on Document, through the document we can live our history.
