Dear Professional Friends,

Library is organizing a Consultative meeting of LIS Experts, peers and
leading educationists to suggest the inclusion of roles and
responsibilities of Library and information centres in the Draft NEP – 2019
at Raman Research Institute, Bangalore.
The expectation of various professionals including academicians and
researchers is very high on this National Education Policy – 2019, under
MHRD. The volume runs to about 477 pages but the librarians input to this
report requires more and serious attention. If librarians neglect at this
stage, sufferers are our young and future professionals.
Many professionals requested LIS Academy to take up this task seriously as
majority of the senior LIS professionals are raising various issues in an
informal discussion. LIS Academy also invites other professional’s
association and scholarly bodies in LIS to join hands for the serious
attempt in this progressive step.

eminent educationists on a common platform and submit to MHRD for inclusion
in new Draft NEP-2019
