Department of Library Information Science & Archive Studies

The Department of Library and Information Science and Archive Studies was established in 1965, beginning with Certificate Courses and later Diploma Courses in the discipline of Library Science at undergraduate level. The Postgraduate Diploma in Library Science (PGDLS) was started from 1970-71, and ultimately M.A. in Library & Information Science program was introduced. The department and the programs were accordingly renamed as ?Department of Library & Information Science & Archive Studies? and ?PGD-LIS & MLIS? respectively. At present classes for both the programs are held in the morning as full time University program. The BS (4-Year) Program in Library and Information Science was introduced from the Academic Session 2014. The department also offers M.Phil & Ph.D. programs in Library and Information Science which is temporary suspended.
