Dear Professionals, I agree with the srinivasulu's point of view of changing the degree from MLISc to MSc will bring value to this degree and LIS professsionals. I would also like to mention that as well as changing the degree, we should change the subject name also from Library and Informtion science to Information Science, Because as soon as we say Library science the way they look at us totally different.Still people are thinking that Library means simply sitting around the book and doing some issue and return. So we have revise the syllabus of LIS.we should follow the ALA syllabus in India. So that other country will accept our LIS programme.Faculty members also have to update their knowedge from time to time.
