I have clearly mentioned in my posting that specialization subject should not be substitute but insted addition to present topics. I dont understand when a student learn's all topics along with specialization how his/her opportunity of getting job get's restricted.. insted i say that he/she will have better chance in getting into his/her field of interest. I request all the professionals to post their reply through LIS Forum, so that every one comes to know about you and your idea's. Please don't send personal emails.

Sir
Are we not going back to late 70's and 80's? where
students had "Methodology of Study of Stubjects".
Students Studied one subject in Detail like the
meaning,the broad coverage,its branches etc.and
collected information about the reference & Text books
avaialable,journals,experts etc.
As such the opening to the LIS Students are less. With
specialisation their opening will be much more
restricted.Instead they should be taught how to learn
about a subject field fast. And in a work situation
they can be asked to learn about the subject with
which the institution works for Two or Three months.
The experience shows that computers and softwares are
not every thing.They should be taught How learn about
the subjects and soft wares as and when required.
