What steps should be taken by the lis professionals to improve the status of the profession ?

Most of the lay men still used to think that librarian has nothing more to do. Again today most of the surveys have shown that due to internet the percentage of the user of the libraries have reduced a lot and the profession is at a risk. So, what steps should be taken by the lis professionals to improve the status of the profession ?

To improve the status any profession one should have many qualities. Some of them are as follows;

1. Good subject Knowlege

2. Aware with latest subject trends and knowledge of the comlete universe, so layman can recognise him. 

3. Self Respect and respect for his profession

4. Maintain Dignity

5. Use latest technology

6. Good Communicative Skills

7. Good Hospitality

 

Thanks with regards

Dear ,

We professional know our dignity & respect, rights & quality within us. Librarians are not alone stupid; they are made several time stupid by their disciplinary committee. He/She alone can’t do any things without appeal granted. So individually professional is improving their quality day by day but fail to improve profession.

Very interesting topic...I agree with Dr.Pachauri..Librarian shoul have the power of gaining khowledge.,reading and thinking skills,good oral and written communications,love for library science,respect to the profession,intest in using latest technology in LIS..Always thinking for new creativity  and its application to LIS..All LIS professional should consider himself as King of Data,Information and khowledge..

Thnk u. As the profession is now in our hands its upto us how we set it's status for the near future
