Dear Afsar,
Thank you very much for circulation such use
information. If possible, please let me know the
reference cited (Maurice B. Line).
Further I would like to suggest that there should be
also research in core areas of Library and Information
Science like Classification. Unfortunately these is a
trend amoung the LIS schools to make students more
Computer Literate at the cost of core subjects of LIS.
(I wish such LIS schools should stop issueing
certificates in LIS and start issueing MCA etc.)
Regards
Sukhdev
