Dear Sir,

Converting a post of a library into a computer is totally injustice, without checking by advertising or calling applications for the said post. Now, a day library professionals are enrolling themselves, for technical education in computer and problem solving. So, as per my opinion, "no conversion of the post".

If you looking for a person for Hardware and Software both then you will get candidate separately for Hardware and Software because a software graduate B.Tech or B.E generally don't have the hardware background since that is excluded from there syllabus(it might be wrong also). 

I would like to suggest that you recommend the qualification, B.Sc (IT) + BLIS or MLIS. Because without having the library education, a core computer science person would always need time to learn them to build an effective system by applying his/her own idea, which of no use. We know the terms, "Professional ethics" and "tacit knowledge", these are the core assets and a real wisdom, can be injected in someone. You can understand what I mean. 

You have a good time to shape your Library as well as of others. You can recommend the above combination (Bsc. IT + BLIS or MLIS) for the T.A. Hope you will get the desired candidate with the motives of shaping libraries in cyberspace. 

Thank you.

Why don't we consider BLISc. or MLISc. with PGDLAN or any PG Diploma courses as qualifications for Technical Asst. post in our Library or Information system?
