Preface
The main objective of the Internship Report is to fulfill the partial
requirements of Internship in Libraries and Information Institutions of the
Master Degree in Information Science and Library Management. It is the
output of the one and half month long (45 working days) internship in the In
Library of Institute of Physics, Bahauddin Zakariya University, Multan.
An internship is a very good opportunity to gain practical knowledge about
any real world concept. Internship bridges the theory with the practice in
any particular field of study. Thus it clarifies the theoretical concept of the
students which may not be possible only through class lectures and follow
up examinations. Internship gives the students a clear cut idea about what
they learnt in the theory and whether these are implemented in the real
world situation accordingly or with modifications. This real life experiences
helps the students to make them eligible for the job environment.
After the completion of the internship program I have gathered enough
experience about the acquisition, processing and dissemination of library
reading materials, managerial activities, stock verification, library website,
reference services, old manuscript preservation, etc. which I have shared in
different chapter of the report. There are also some observations from my
point of view which I think would be considerable to the authority for the
betterment of the IoP Library.
