ORGANIZERSOne of the oldest Library Science Department in India, The Department of Library & Information Science, University of Calcutta was founded in 1945. The first Dip. Lib. Training started in January, 1945. A separate and independent Faculty for Post-Graduate Studies in Library Science was created and the 'Department of Library Science' was placed under it. From the 1969-70 session the 'Diploma' was replaced by Post Graduate degree of Bachelor of library Science (B. Lib. Sc.). In 1998 the Department was renamed as the Department of Library & Information Science and the course was called as Bachelor of Library & Information Science (BLIS). The Department is presently under the Faculty of Post-Graduate studies in Journalism, Education and Library & Information Science. The department has strong and academically rich faculties who are seriously devoted to train the students to make them powerful library professionals for the future.
