Assalamualaikum.

In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.

Praise be to Him, Lord of the Universe, and Prayers and Peace be upon His Final Prophet and Messenger, Muhammad S.A.W.
 
First and foremost, on behalf of the UTHM Library, it is a great pleasure to extend my warmth welcome to all new students and staff to this University.  We also welcome you to our new building, which has been completely built. Since then, the building is now open to the public, especially to those who are seeking knowledge.

Thus, in order to be in line with the motto of the university, that is "With Wisdom We Explore", the library plays a vital role to generate wisdom amongst the university's community through exploration. Since the library is known as the focal point of knowledge, it is hoped that the new building will offer the community with a pleasant, tranquil and condusive surrounding needed in order to absorb information and knowledge.

What is important for us is how to give an excellent information services to our users, which is valuable to them. I strongly believe that if new users are happy with our services, they will come back again and again. The higher the level of satisfaction a customer has is one of the determining factor in the success of any bussiness. No wonder why Peter Drucker once said: "The result of a bussiness is a satisfied customer."

Finally, I am taking this opportunity to give a special acknowledgement to the Library Website Committee, for their endless effort, commitment and steadfastness.

Thank you.
