Suggestion Regarding Higher Degrees in Library and Information Science

Dear Professional,

Good Morning!

I completed my UG degree in Computer Applications and MLIS, MPhil in Library and Information Science. 

I would like to pursue an additional PG degree through distance education which would very supportive to get higher position in our field or supportive in earning in my leisure time. Kindly suggest

I have few ideas since I hope our professionals will have more ideas that will help me to take best decision.

 

Thanks & regards,

Dear Dr. Akhtar Hussain,

Thank you so much for valuable suggestion.

Thanks & regards,

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. Munesh Kumar,

Thank so much for your valuable information. It is really useful for me.

I heartily convey my thanks to this forum team & members for providing valuable guidance. whenever I need any suggestion I usually post in this forum since I have idea on the same also. I get different type professional suggestions from our great professionals it really support me to take good decision. Thank you all for your valuable support.

Thanks & regards,

H Karthiban

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,

H Karthiban
