Knowledge Organization tools can be used for a variety of purposes including arranging information objects, representation of their aboutness, displaying semantic relations between concepts and even for presentation of ideas in texts. The paper highlights some of the major contributions of Ranganathan to the theory and practice of knowledge organization.Keywords

Adequate and effective access to information for all is an important requirement in any civil society. Libraries and information institutions of all kinds play a major role in democratizing access to knowledge and information. Training of appropriate human resources required to build, operate and manage today's libraries and information centres is of crucial importance in shaping and determining the ability of the profession to meet the emerging challenges. Surely library and information services and education for LIS are at cross roads, given the rapidly changing information environment.- Semantics of Relationships in Knowledge Organization: Lateral Relationships

To classify is to put things into meaningful groups. Knowledge Organization is the domain concerned with t he ordering of knowledge in a meaningful and logical fashion. I. Dahlberg considered knowledge as what is known and organization as the activity of constructing something according to a plan. From the time of Melville Dewey till recently most theorists of knowledge organization and classificationists (to use a term coined by Ranganathan to refer to designers of systems for knowledge organization such as a scheme of classification) have adopted a more or less pragmatic approach largely restricting their discussions to issues relevant to the organization of recorded / documented knowledge. In other words the concern has largely been with knowledge artifacts such as books and other documentary resources. In this sense knowledge organization refers to descriptio n of documentary resources in terms of all relevant attributes. This 'documentary resource description - centered approach? to knowledge organization has dominated much of the thinking in the area since the time of Panizzi, Dewey and Cutter. Another importan t approach, though very recent, to knowledge organization is the 'use - centric' approach; i.e. to look at knowledge resources and their organization from the perspective of their potential use .- Information Science in India: An Analysis

Presents a study of the structure and development of information science in India during the last five years. It is based on an analysis of the literature published in the field during 1978-83. The analysis indicated that the traditional aspects of the literature was 68% and the non-traditional about 32%. The basic issues discussed centre round computer-based information system and management techniques in information science.- Public Library Service in Delhi:Present Status and Development Plan 2010-2020

Ideally a public library is a library that is freely accessible to all members of a community irrespective of gender, social status, level of literacy, age, etc and is generally funded from public sources, such as taxes, cess, etc. India has, in recent years, attached considerable importance to transforming itself into a knowledge society. This is evident from the various initiatives such as National Literacy Mission, National Knowledge Commission, Digital India, etc of successive governments. The National Knowledge Commission even set up a Working Group on Libraries, which emphasized the importance of libraries in the rapidly transforming and changing environment. The vital role of public libraries in a developing society such as ours was emphasized by Dr. S. R. Ranganathan who prepared a model library bill and was also instrumental in getting the first public library legislation in Independent India enacted in 1948 in the then state of Madras. While in the last nearly seven decades since independence many Indian states have enacted public library legislation, even today there are states that do not have a public library law. There are also some states that have enacted public library legislation, but have not implemented the act.- Empowering libraries: Strategies for the Future/H. K.

Professional library and information science literature in India has been steadily growing. Dr. Kaul’s book entitled ‘Empowering libraries’ is probably the most recent addition to this. Given Dr. Kaul’s rich and long experience as head of the library at the India International Centre which caters to the information needs of some of the most serious researchers in the social sciences and as founder director of DELNET, the most successful library network in India, which continues to grow, the volume should be a welcome addition to the Indian literature that stems from years of experience in institution building and working with serious researchers. The book includes, as stated in the preface, revised versions of Dr. Kaul’s presentations at NACLIN and papers in professional periodicals. The chapters have been grouped under five broad headings; viz., Knowledge and Society, Technology Applications in Libraries, Networking libraries, LIS professionals and Future of Libraries. The headings do reflect contemporary issues confronting librarianship and information service. Given that libraries are facing major challenges and that questions are being raised regarding the continued relevance of libraries in the emerging context, it is very important for members of the profession to re-examine the nature of library / information work and service and to re-fashion and re-position libraries to adapt to the breathtaking changes that are taking place in the information environment. The essays in the book seek to examine the changing role of libraries and LIS professionals in the context of changes that are taking place as a result of developments in information technology.- A Note from the Editor
