The journey of libraries after independence is a reflection of the hard work, innovation, technology and development. Whether in India or abroad, library professionals have proved themselves with their research, innovative ideas and their implementation. The book contains information about public libraries, school, academic as well as research libraries in India and discusses infrastructure, collection developments and technological transformation in these libraries. It also covers library movement, library legislation, LIS education, education policies and academic library initiatives during Ancient India, Medieval India, Pre and Post Independence of India by the Government. It also discusses professional librarian skills based on library science functional laws and how their roles transformed in the last 75 years to provide better information services.
