Committee for Rationalization of Courses in Library Science (1975)
by Ashis Biswas 22 Apr '13

22 Apr '13

Respected Sir/Madam, *Prof Krishan Kumar and Dr. Jaideep Sharma *mentioned in their book titled*"Library and Information Science Education in India" ( *published by Har Anand Publications in 2009) in page no. 76 about --- *the Committee for Rationalization of Courses in Library Science (1975)* with the following explanation: "*To bring improvements in library education, Ministry of education and Social Welfare, Govt. of India, set up a Committee for rationalization of Courses in Library Science, in July 1975. It gave useful suggestions*". I have particularly mentioned about this Committee because my exhaustive literature search on the Commission and Committees for LIS education in India hasn't got any reference about that Committee which I came to know from the book of Prof. Kumar and Dr. Sharma. *Would you kindly give me any information whether the Committee submitted any report to the concerned authority and whether the Authority published that report????* I searched the university libraries in West Bengal, National Library, Kolkata, Libraries under DELNET, Parliamentary Library, New Delhi in vain. Regards, Ashis Biswas Librarian, Victoria Institution (College) Kolkata 700 009 -- trdyt -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
