What is the difference between M.Lib.Sc and M.Lib.I.Sc

[SP Chaudhari]

What is the difference between Master of Library Science (M.Lib.Sc.) and Master of Library and Information Science (M.Lib.I.Sc)?

[Sunita Pareek]

M.Lib.I.Sc is information based and both are PG degrees IN LIBRARY SC.,all universities have their own syllabus for m.lib or M.Lib.I.Sc,Basicaly as per current scenario IT is more useful,so we have to go for it

i  agree with Mr. Anoop Bisht

[Dr. Akhtar Hussain]

Dear S.Chaudhari,

Library science we can say that the professional knowledge and skill with which recorded information is selected, acquired, organized, stored, maintained, retrieved, and disseminated to meet the needs of a specific user, usually taught at a professional library school qualified to grant the post graduate degree of M.L.S. or M.L.I.S, whereas Information Science  we can say  the systematic study and analysis of the sources, development, collection, organization, dissemination, evaluation, use, and management of information in all its forms, including the channels (formal and informal) and technology used in its communication.

The LIS departments, to keep pace with the emerging trends, have revised their syllabi as per the recommendations made in the UGC Model Curriculum on Library and Information Science (2001). Much emphasis has been given in the Report to ICTs and practical components, in addition to existing core courses. The concept of Digital Libraries, Information science, IRS etc was considered as a part of ICTs. So that above said reason LIS Schools/Department add the term of Information Science.
