Re: [LIS-Forum] Online Library Internship

Friends, I agree with Dr Koteswara Rao that internships in a professional field have to be hands-on and cannot be online. You cannot learn motor car repairing without actually dirtying your hands or learn swimming without actually jumping into water. Best wishes.

Dear friends, As far as I understand LIS is a professional course which should have compulsory practical training or internship in a library in the last semester of the course. It is absurd and meaningless to have an online LIS internship ? My sincere request is Please don’t make everything online.
