Librarians Day 2014: a daylong seminar on August 12, 2014 in JNU, Delhi

Dr Ramesh Gaur, Vice President of IASLIC Zone 6 invites all concern in Librarians Day 2014 (IASLIC Zone 6) ,  a daylong seminar on August 
12, 2014 in collaboration with Indian Association of Special Libraries and Information Centres ( IASLIC) & Association of Media Libraries and 
Archives(AMLA) with suppport from Informatics India. We all are well aware 
that the profession of Library science is at the crossroads. We have to 
march forward in the right directions. 

The profession is afflicted with many problems. For instance, numerous 
positions in Librarians, across the country remain vacant for various 
reasons. At times for want of suitable candidates with requisite 
qualifications, while at others due to indifference and reluctance of the 
authorities to fill them. 

Furthermore, there are anomalies in the status, pay structure of Library 
cadres across the country. A proliferation of Library Science programmes 
through distance mode has enhanced the supply of Library professionals. The 
supplies (young graduates) are not competent enough to cater to the demands 
and expectations of the market. 

In keeping with the changing times, the LIS curriculum needs to be over 
handed and revised Internship should be made a compulsory component of the 
curriculum. The recommendations of National Knowledge Commission have not 
been implemented. 

The daylong seminar will provide a forum to raise such issues and deliberate 
upon their tentative solutions. 

Much will depends upon the dynamic leadership of Library associations across 
the country, we all have to work unitedly in order to take our metier with 
evangelistic zeal, more ahead and scale heights. 

There is no registration fee however 200 delegates shall be accommodated on 
first registered and first served bases. 

Dr Gaur  solicits cooperation of all my professional colleagues and request them who 
are at the helm of the affairs of various association to participate in the 
remain. It is proposed that a document shall be prepared and submitted to 
the new Government to approved it of the issues and challenges faced by the 
Library profession in India ” Ache Din Aane Wale Hain” . 

Dr Gaur invites you all to participate in above seminar. Brochure attached and registration link below
