Humanities & Social Sciences

Librarianship is a growing field, which has by now attained the status of a separate discipline in the universe of knowledge. It presents challenges and interesting situations to library personnel. The management of these libraries needs persons with good academic and professional qualification. Proficiency in one of the natural sciences, social Science or the humanities is helpful in the professional development of a librarian. Library work is primarily a social service, and therefore, needs young men and women with a sense of dedication and a spirit of service. Those intending to enter the library profession should satisfy themselves that they possess the academic qualification and the sense of vocation that would enable them to work successfully as librarians.
