Dear Friends,
Prof CR Karisiddappa, President of IATLIS (Indian Association of Teachers
in Library and Information Science) has proposed the following theme for
the ensuing XXIII IATLIS National Conference to be organised in Nov 2006.
As we are already delayed in finalising the theme, may i request all the
concerned to react and suggest the changes to the thme. even it will be
gret, if u can suggest something new, but shd be related to the LIS
education. Earlier we have already organised three conferences relating to
curriuclum. in the light of the earlier background, may i request all
professional friends to suggest the the theme earliet to enable us to
finalise the same.
