Dear i have upload information regarding google ebooks(books.google.com/ebooks). it is accessing whole world not particular country.But LIS profession has managed the status of a full-fledged discipline in India.But , it has low recognition and has not been regarded at same level with other well-known professions. Most of the students do not choose for librarianship as a first choice of study. National bodies such as ILA, IATLIS and IASLIC etc. should give serious thinking to find the timely solutions for the problems prevailing today. There should be a National Accreditation Body to apply rigorous parameters before granting accreditation to a library school. This will help to establish quality control in LIS schools. It should focus on the adoption of relevant and up-to-date curricula, high quality faculty, willing students and good infrastructure in needed in every LIS schools. In this said ways that LIS institute/department shall capable to made Cybrarian.
