The Department of Library and Information Science fosters information professionals who can serve in a diverse range of fields and in a dynamically changing global information environment.

Overview

Library and information science(LIS) is an interdisciplinary or multidisciplinary field that applies the practices, perspectives, and tools of management, information technology, education, and other areas to libraries. Library studies deal with the collection, organization, preservation, and dissemination of information resources; and the political economy of information. We educate students through library and information science courses to fulfill careers, professional leadership, lifelong learning, social responsibility, and technological mastery. We provide students with facilities to practice their knowledge and skills on campus, and practical opportunities are always open to all students by working in the library or media center.
