Dear Mr Sunil,In my opinion the library science is coming under both social science and general pure science as some of the universities offering MSc in Library and Information Science. Hence it is better the subject has its own identity and over and above not included in both social science and basic science. I hope this may help you analysing the fact.Rgds,Sushanta Pathy8A6>$ A.>0 *> @Sushanta Kumar PathyCentral Library,Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), BhubaneswarSamantapuri (Rear-side of Hotel Swosti Plaza)Bhubaneswar- 751013, ODISHAEmail: spathy@iitbbs.ac.inOffice:0674-2306292 (D)www.iitbbs.ac.inwww.iitbbs.gov.in -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
