Abstract

Library and Information Science education in India is undergoing a fundamental change in its basic framework and is being re-oriented to meet the current needs of the information society. This paper highlights the programme of study, the current state of affairs and the different components of the LIS syllabi taught in the universities in Maharashtra. The discussion is limited to teaching, research, and course content through regular learning. Distance learning and vernacular media courses are not covered.
