Quality Assurance in LIS Education and Training: Issues and Concerns Academic and Professional Issues A proper balance and coordination among the educators, practitioners and researchers can resolve most of the academic and professional issues aiming at quality in library and information services.

Technological Issues Adoption and applications of technological tools and techniques as compulsory component of LIS education and training allows professional competency building and capacity development of LIS learners which contribute to proper functioning of libraries and professionals should not hesitate in adopting these technologies in their work places even for their own professional development. The open source and open access initiatives are a great boon to the library professionals to develop technologically and professionally.

Management Issues A transition from traditional to modern digital library system A challenges in managing the libraries with due approval from authorities. A shift from licensed software to open source software, traditional printed books to e-resources, priced publications to open access publications are always issues before the library authorities in which library professionals need to convince the pros and cons of the changed policies in the greater interest of the institutions and users at large.

Formulate a National Policy on Library and Information System A clear vision for the development of Libraries, LIS education and research as national policy to provide a direction to the future librarianship which in turn could supplement socio-educational and cultural development and nation building as well.

To Sum Up Quality of Library and Information Services depends on Quality of Manpower In other words, the quality of library and information science education determines to a large extent the quality of library and information services available to customers LIS education must be revamped, redesigned by adopting innovative methods and techniques to meet the needs of knowledge based society

The field of library and information science education is a dynamic one (Interdisciplinary and Multidisciplinary) Therefore Quality Assurance in LIS Education and Building Professional Competency are Issues and Concerns in the Digital Environment
