Dear Friends, I have a doubt about, in which faculty the discipline of Library and Information Science should be included in university structure,such as: Faulty of Science and Technology Faculty of Social Sciences Faculty of Commerce Faculty of Law Faculty of Education In the University of Mysore, the discipline of Library and Information Science is grouped under the faculty of Science & Technology. In some places it comes under the faculty of social sciences. So, my request to the professionals is, under which subject (faculty) Library and Information Science should be included. Valuable inputs of the LIS members will be highly appreciated in this regard. -- With Warm Regards Dr. Khaiser Jahan Begum Professor Department of Studies in Library and Information Science University of Mysore, Mysore Email - khaiser.nikam6(a)gmail.com (M) 9845328672 -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Re: [LIS-Forum] Faculty in which LISc to be grouped (Khaiser Jahan Begum)
by Anand Dodamani 03 Feb '19

03 Feb '19

Dear Prof. Khaiser Jahan Begam, The question that you have raised about the grouping of our decipline (LIS) in a university set up is quite interesting. Also, the fact that the library professionals who are known primarily for their organising skills, are still struggling to classify their own subject (LIS) in the universe of knowledge, is equally interesting. As we all know, the LIS is a multidisciplinary subject that derives theories, concepts, methods and tools from various other disciplines to organise the knowledge properly. We extensively use the 'technology' to make our work of organising the knowlege systematically and to provide an easy and quick access to it for the benefit of our users. But, the extensive use of technology cannot be a ground to place the LIS under the ' Faculty of Technology'. We always use scientific methods to study the information needs of our users and adopt scientific approach to organise and manage the collection of information resources. But this will not support our decision to place the LIS under the ' Faculty of Science'. The ultimate aim of our profession is to provide right information to the right person at the right time in order to help him contribute to the development of the society. Hence, the only 'right' place to categorise the LIS would be the 'Faculty of Social Sciences' . A majority of the universities have already done this. These are my personal views.

For this purpose, there are different reference management tools that can help in making this job easy and Mendeley is one of them. This video is about the introduction of Mendeley and its different uses in research writing in order to cite and arrange the references. Hope this video will help to understand the concept of Mendeley.
