摘要:Short-term courses have been the pre-cursor to the LIS education programmes. However, after the educational programmes came into being, the short-term LIS programmes stopped and not many of these were conducted during the 1960s and 1970s. With the advent of information technologies in Indian libraries in the late 1980s, the short-term courses have made a slow but steady comeback. The recent years have seen the strong resurgence of short-term LIS training courses in India with new players joining the LIS training bandwagon. However, these courses in India have not been a subject of exclusive study. The study traces the history, growth, and current status of short-term LIS courses in India . http://dx.doi.org/10.14429/djlit.30.616
