PGDLAN IS VERY GOOD TO OUR CARRIER THERE IS LOW NUMER OF UNIVERSITY ARE OFFERING THIS COURSE

BUT IT IS VERY GOOD THING TO EVERY LIBRARIAN BOTH SUBJECT AND COMPUTER KNOWLEGE IS PLUS TO US

YOU CAN GO WITH NET. IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER DIPLOMA IN COMPUTERS THEN PGDLAB IS NOT NECESASRY.

Ā 

You can try for PGDLN in university of hedrabad last date of 30.01.2012

From the view of job prospect, I will never ever recommend anyone for PGDLAN. It is not recognized by most of the parties. You will hardly see any advertisement where the essential or desire qualification is PGDLAN. So you will have no cutting edge over other general candidate by having it.

However you will see a lot of advertisement where the essential or desire qualification is PGDCA. So, I think you should give more emphasis towards PGDCA than PGDLAN.

However, if you already have PGDCA or working somewhere and getting a job is not a thing for you to consider, then you can go for PGDLAN.

Please note that this is only my personal view.

Mr. Badan you are correct.

I think you should opt for PGDCA, coz most of the advertisement for library jobs ask for PGDCA qualification. PGDLAN is also not bad but lessĀ advertisementĀ are found with this qualification. PGDCA will do all the computer qualification required in our profession. Hope it helps

Dear Nutan , Our Department of LIS ,Joshi Bedekar College, Thane

, Maharashtra is conducting PGDLAN Course.For detailed information please see our website www.vpmthane.org

Dear I am doing PGDLAN from University of Hyderabad now from this January 2012, 23 to 28 exam's are there of this course but on the fist day of our introduction class at University of Hyderabad the coordinator himself stated that what PGDCA have value in the field of Library and Information Science, PGLAN has not got that much of importance nor went to that level because of this very few universities are conducting this course and I heard that University of Hyderabad closing this PGDLAN course and starting MSc in LIS. In my opinion you go for PGDCA as other member's have given their opinion on this discussion I agree with those people's who are giving much stress to PGDCA because even i found many university and other institutions have mentioned PGDCA as requirement for some Library PostĀ  and Raaz ki baat this year I am also planning to do PGDCA heheheh because learning never stops...............

Dear Nutun,Ā 

You have M.Lib. it is good for subject. If you have any computer diploma or any other qualification then there is no need to go for PGDLAN. If you dont have any computer diploma or qualification Ā then you must have to go with PGDCA or any course related to computer, It is worthfull in your nearest future.

Ā 

pls tell me the duration of PGDCA.
