Dear Mr. Karthiban,
In which area you are looking for a scope? Already you have about Computer Science and Library & Information Science both. As per my opinion you should roll back to Computer Science to learn and refresh your coding skills by which you can earn in your leisure time.

Computer Science is having more scope than any-other domain, same time the number of people is also more. But, become a computer expert you will be called.

thank you.

Dear Karthiban,

It's good to read your qualification which combines computer science and Library science.

I too have completed my UG in computer science, studied M.L.I.S., M.Phil in Lib. Science, then I studied my PG in Computer Science (M.Sc), now registered Ph.D in Lib science.

Personally, I suggest you the following:

1. Decide which discipline you would like to move... (computer science or Library Science)

2. If you want to move to computer science, do your PG in Computer science

3. If you want to continue in Lib Science, Register PhD, once you complete your PhD then you go for PG in Computer Science (M.Sc) or Mass communication and Journalism etc..

All the best.

I would suggest to not go for degrees try to have knowledge. Join a community exploring algorithms and programming skills. No need to join any other stream again.

Dear Mr. Selvam,

Thank you so much for valuable suggestion & Appreciation. 

With library science degree, PG degree in Computer Science will give more weightage to get Librarian post in reputed organisation & Government sectors it is true?

Is there any essential requirement for additional PG degree in other subject to get  librarian vacancy in reputed private / government sector?

Thanks & regards,
