"Dear Professional Collogues,I need the APSET 2026 question paper along with the answer key.Thanking you"
How to get published in LIS
Being busy professionals, Library personnel always get a stipulated time to express their knowledge in bookish form. That,s why library theory has not developed as much as it should have been. Whatever contribution is there in the field, that is due to conferences, seminars and workshops being conducted by the organizations like ILA, IASLIC, RRRLF etc. So, what technique should the LIS professionals adopt to get themselves published to contribute more to the subject?

In office, each of my day is divided into the following
a) Half an hour for my personal email
b) Half an hour for professional development (LIS Links, Latest Development, Writing papers, up gradation to my knowledge)
c) One hour for my institute website, social networking (institute), official email.
d) Rest are devoted to other official works.
Note: I used to check my personal email and maintain "LIS Links" site by cutting my official work time. However, I used to manage that one hour time by staying late at office. Usually I am available at office till 6.30 pm, though my office used to close at 5.00 (in summer) and at 4.30 (in winter).
In home, I used to be in front of my computer for long hours for professional work or in bed or watching movies in TV.
O! I forgot to mention. I usually spend one hour over mobile.

It ( study) has to be included as a part of the busy schedule, rather it should say part of life. Thanks.

Yes you are right that we dont get much time to concentrate on writing papers. Because we dont get more professionals at one place. But I would suggest if we start comparison of two or more library use or use patterns it will be nice to produce papers too. Thus I feel collaboration is the key. We all should try to collaborate with possible links.
