Date: Mon, 12 Jul 2004 14:32:27 +0530 From: Rafiq Dear Susmitha Ramesh For yours, and others, benefit, I have listed below all major software vendors of library systems. Hope you will find this useful. I have dealt very closely with a number of library systems, and have done some study by listing out essential parameters for selecting any library system. Should anyone is desirous of having a look at the list need not hesitate to get in touch with me. Susmitha, can you further elaborate your view on:"...Can we come out with a new profile..."? This will help to pen thoughts. As it is, my own submission is that we need to entirely redo the profile of library and information professionals in the current milieu, which is driven by technology.
