Library Trainee

This role is ideal for fresh Postgraduates with a Master's in Library & Information Science (MLISc) and a minimum of 65% academic record, eager to gain hands-on experience in a national institute. Candidates should possess strong communication skills, enthusiasm for learning new technologies, and a commitment to temporary assignments in a dynamic library environment. It's a valuable opportunity for individuals seeking an entry-level professional role in an academic library.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment or those expecting extensive benefits typically associated with regular positions should not apply, as this is a temporary traineeship (internship) with a defined tenure. Applicants who do not meet the essential MLISc qualification or exceed the age limit of 26 years (as on the notification date) will not be considered.

Working at an Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), an Institute of National Importance, offers significant prestige and a valuable learning environment for career development in library and information science. While the role is temporary (12-24 months), the experience gained within the IIT system will be a strong asset for future career prospects, especially for those aiming for positions in academic or research libraries. It serves as an excellent foundation for fresh graduates entering the LIS field.
