Download or read book Trends in Library and Information Studies written by Aijaz Ahmad Bhat and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-02-19 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Library and information science education has developed into a distinct discipline to meet the growing dimensions of library service and the changing needs of the society. Library as a social organ has certain social obligations. These obligations vary with the educational and cultural needs. The personnel working in libraries must have proper library education then only they can use and implement the library techniques effectively to suit the requirements of the users. Presently, library education is being provided by a variety of institutions such as traditional universities, open universities, deemed universities, polytechnics, affiliated colleges, professional associations, and documentation centres, etc. Common trends noted in the growth of LIS schools around the world are review and revision of curricula, increased use of ICT, decrease or increase in the number of students, amalgamation and reorientation. Library and Information Science Education is no more an education for the mangers of libraries only, but has become an education for the consumers of knowledge also. It is a change from managing libraries by librarians to manage the flow of information by one and all. Earlier, LIS students after the education became librarians, now professionals teach this science and learners choose this profession to manage the information. The need of mere library schools is over in the present context. Better schools having adequate finance, physical and library facilities, equipment, and qualified and experienced faculty is the need of the hour. The LIS schools should aim at educational excellence and serve as pacesetters. Such schools should try to produce a new breed of professionals capable to successfully perform their role in the fast changing information needs of the society using new information technologies such as word processors, dedicated special purpose microcomputers, and telecommunication technology. The library schools should assume the role of leadership and responsibility to produce competent manpower for the present as well as future needs of different kinds of information centres including university libraries. It is often said that the 'future is uncertain', but the future of LIS professionals can be visualised now itself unless and until necessary measures are taken by the LIS teachers in particular to train the forthcoming incumbents with the most up-to-date curriculum emphasizing more on ICT skills so as to prepare the information professionals for leadership role. Mere blaming the librarians is not a solution to the visibility of librarianship, but at the same time, a unique accreditation or certification system, quality of education and distance education trend has to be monitored.

Download or read book Academic and Digital Libraries written by Gloria J. Holbrook and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Academic and Digital Libraries: Emerging Directions and Trends, the authors open by identifying the technological revolution in the academic libraries from 1930s until now, finding that the growth of technology in the academic libraries is largely similar to the phases of human growth through four stages; Stage of Birth (1930 - 1959), Stage of Childhood (1960 - 1979), Stage of Youth (1980 - 1989) and Stage of Maturity (1990 - 2017). Therefore, the authors present essential information about 3DHT in order to understand the importance of this technology in our life, particularly in academic libraries. Next, the authors aim to determine how and to what extent humanities students in Poland make use of digital libraries. Emphasis was placed on three factors: time spent working at the library, duration of use of the library, and the proportion of materials used that come from the digital library. Next, the book includes research which conducts an environmental scan of current best practices in academic library technology to reflect on future landscapes. The work takes the premise that by projecting out from current leading-edge technology realities, it is possible to better plan for the future. The final chapter examines the concepts of digitization and preservation of information resources in academic libraries. The need for and process of digitization of Libraries resources, as well as the areas of collaboration in digitization and preservation projects are discussed.
