Libraries and library science have traversed a long course since beginning to the present day. Libraries of modern age are known as electronic library or ‘digital library’ because of fast digitization and automation of all library functions which has paved the way of easy and convenient access and utilization of library collections.
A plethora of literature on library and information science is available. The present work is a modest attempt at exploring library and information science today.
The information is supported by fact and figures derived from research findings of leading library professionals from all across the world.
Definitely, this work will prove vade mecum to all library professionals besides academics, trainers and trainees in field. |
