Guidance Needed: Is MLIS Sufficient for Jobs Requiring BLIS Eligibility?

Hi everyone, I’m Sebastine Robert

I am from Tamil Nadu and have completed my M.Lib.I.Sc. (Master of Library and Information Science) in 2025 from Bishop Heber College, affiliated with Bharathidasan University. I am currently working as a Library Trainee at IIT Madras (IITM).

I am seeking guidance on the following:

  1. Since I already hold an M.Lib.I.Sc.  degree, is it necessary to pursue a BLIS (Bachelor of Library and Information Science) separately for job eligibility, or is M.Lib.I.Sc.  alone sufficient?

  2. Some job notifications still specifically mention BLIS as a requirement. In such cases, how can I obtain an equivalence certificate to officially confirm that my M.Lib.I.Sc. covers BLIS requirements?

I would greatly appreciate insights and advice from professionals, faculty members, and fellow LIS graduates regarding this matter.

Thank you in advance for your time and guidance.

Best regards, Sebastine Robert
