Hi all.

I am an engineer with 5 years of experience in Analytics industry and now I want to become a librarian. Before enrolling, I wanted to know if in the job market, candidates from regular university are preferred over candidates from distance universities? Would be grateful if you can share your experience. Many thanks!

This scope of blis is limited to various government jobs that take years to complete but if you can manage to do MLIS from a regular university, getting a job gets easier. But I would advise you not to do it for money or if you think it will be a fun environment. If you really see yourself working for a lifetime in a library, go visit or talk with a librarian in india. Blis course from ignou is easy and makes you eligible for entry level library jobs.

Regular mode is the best option if not do only from UGC DEB approved universities for BLIS IGNOU is best

i would suggest you to do data science.
