Dear All,
The Unesco document "Libraries for all : how to start a basic library",
brought to our notice by Dr Indira, is an excellent practical guide to
be taught in our library schools in the beginning so as to give the
students a holistic overview of the tasks ahead in the library profession.
The list of options in decision-making, the practical hints on whereabouts
and the logical sequencing of the sub topics make this document a good
entry point for a new student of Library Science.
Regards,
K Rajasekharan

Dear Mrs. Sheethal,
UNESCO Publication "Libraries for all: how to start and run a basic
library" written by Laura Wendell, the founder of the World Library
Partnership, is a practical guide to establish and manage a library.
available in English, French and Spanish in HTML and PDF formats.
This resource guide is designed and developed for people with little or no
training in librarianship and contains practical, step-by-step instructions
for creating and managing a successful library.
Here is the URL:
http://www.unesco.org/webworld/highlights/library_run_020299.html
Line-item Budgeting is discussed in P15-21.
I feel we should include this in the Reading Lists of BLISC and MLISC
programs.
Hope this manual will be useful in our day-to-day practices.
Dr Indira
