The designation is a name given purposefully to a person for his job and it is the term used for identification of a particular job. The status and cadre of librarian has been a controversial topic in the academic circle of our country. The designation of the post of “Librarian” should be reviewed in the present ICT Scenario. Other departments used to review and change the designation of various posts from time to time as per the need and demand on the basis of work, responsibility, nature of work, status, cadre etc. Article discusses that we are not meeting the demand of the hour and we are still behind the time. Person working anywhere is librarian whether it is a public library, school library, college library, university library, special library, research institution, digital library, e-library and so on. All the designations are “librarian and librarian”. A questionnaire is circulated and online survey method is adopted for observing the opinion of the library professionals, teachers, students, research scholars regarding changes in nomenclature of the “Librarian Post” at various levels i.e. schools, colleges, University and Public Libraries. The data is analysed in form of tables and charts. Suggestions are also given for empowering the human resources working in the libraries.Keywords

This article aims at providing a comprehensive report on the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on online teaching and learning. The outbreak of COVID-19 affected people worldwide since its origin in December 2019 in China. All the countries stopped their normal activities in all the fields, and online teaching was the only approach to continue the teaching-learning activities. Both the government and the public are in fear, and are following various protocols to stay safe, like washing the hands frequently, wearing face masks, physical distancing, and avoiding mass gatherings and assemblies. Educational institutes are also closed; however, they have changed the teaching-learning methodology to cope with the situation. At present, a culture of virtual and online classes and using online teaching-learning tools has been adopted. Strategies for lockdown and staying home are very important to save more lives, and to flatten the curve and control the transmission of the disease. The article deals with strategies and steps taken to continue the teaching-learning process in educational institutions. The study uses a survey-based approach to analyse the effectiveness of online teaching-learning activities conducted by the institutes, and the use of ICT in education to manage online educational resources for future use. A total of 330 respondents, including students, teachers, parents, research scholars, and administrative officials were part of the study. They submitted their online feedback regarding effectiveness, significance, pros and cons, teaching tools, usage, time durations, and students’ behaviour during the online teaching-learning strategies. Various learning outcomes, problems, challenges, and suggestions are also included in the present study. It is observed during the study that most of the people are satisfied with online teaching-learning and almost all the respondents think that online teaching has enhanced the quality and reputation of institutions.Keywords

The role of professional associations cannot be under-estimated. In any field, professional associations have been found to do remarkable jobs with great achievements. The present study endeavours to find out the role of professional associations in the development of the library profession and professionals. Any professional association forms the backbone of professional development, and library associations are powerful platforms to raise issues related to the profession at the national level. This paper presents a brief outline of the issues and problems of LIS professionals in the country, and the existing scenario of the Library Associations of India. The role of state and regional library associations is more visible in some parts of the country, and in recent years, the associations at the national level are striving hard to make their presence felt, and convincing the professionals that they have some role to play in the library development programmes. In this paper, some of the vital issues are proposed for consideration and discussion. As per the study, it is observed that in the present scenario all the library associations in India are not playing a proper significant role.Keywords
