Respected Friends,

 

In the line of discussion raised by worthy friends regarding some of issues are as follows--------

 

1.   Professional accreditation of librarians in society,

2.   Quality of LIS Education at all level.

3.   Time bound Professional as well as technical  enhancement ,

4.   At par status in parent organisations,

5.   Removal of Financial and Administrative disparities ,

6.    Change of image from CIRUCLATION CLERK to KNOWLEDGE GENRATOR, KNOWLEDGE MANAGER, INFORMATION OFFICER and so on ,

7.   Library Services are as precious , priceless and very much mandatory than any other service in the parent organisation/body,

 
And this is not the end of issues at all. 
 
 
All of us as LIS Professionals are well aware of all these issues and the irony of fate is that we do have the answers also.
 
But the million dollar question is that who speaks first?
 
 Mere discussion on different forums and in conferences does not give any concrete result.
 
I think now the time has come that we all should stand up to change the nomenclature of LIS world. We should come forward and can ask the administrative machinery to change the various recommendations into authenticity.
 
We have number of LIS Associations not only in India but across the globe. Numbers of scholars are there who can sail the ship in right direction for next generation. We have library legislation in 10 states , lucrative recomendations of Knowledge Commisons are also there to guard the LIS issues.
 
So what we all are waiting for................
 
 
Regards,
 
Miss Charu Mathur.
Delhi.
