Open Source and Social Media Should be the Part of Library and Information Science Syllabus

Koha, DSpace, php, java, and some chapters on social media in the paper of knowledge management should be added in the course curriculum of LIS. What is your opinion?

I am agree with you Mr Munesh. In the changing world & technology these topics should be part of syllabus. It should be revised regularly. As you see syllabus of MLIS at BHU there is no such topics as you mention above because of that we were facing many problems.

Even i do agree with both of you.............it should be added in the curriculum.other wise it is difficult to survives in the present scenario.

i am completely agree with you Sir

now a days the dimension of LIS are changing and we must change ourselves according to the nature of Need of user. The course Curriculum of LIS must be revised to add such topics in the syllabus

thank you

it is very nice to see you all here, the support to this post which is very necessary for current and future point of view. Hence, it is request to you all to start this work at your own level... rest will be 

This is extremely required in wake of current scenario. But in mean time is it possible for us to have these knowledge form any other source. Obviously, workshops help but is there any other organized information source from where we can get some of this information which we can practically use in our library.

sir, i don't think so. But some professional names are there in this field but, it's depend up on their timing, for that we can't said anything. Workshops are only after class works.
