Some possible sub-topics or connected issues are: Librarians allowing LIS students some short term training Librarians offering to help in teaching assignments Librarians providing projects for student activities Librarians allowing Student visits that are properly organised Librarians spelling out their expectations from students so that curriculam may be modified Librarians being on Board of Studies by rotation Librarians advertising vacancies through LIS schools Librarians requesting LIS teachers to help them select LIS employees Librarians helping LIS schools to prepare Alumni lists Applying Apprenticeship Act to all libraries Apart from "LIS school and Libraians relationships", LIS schools need to tap LIS Associations too. Nowadays students become 'captive audience' for lectures organised by LIS associations; They should be voluntary active audience.
