Abstract

Due to globalization and impact of ICT the learning procedure is to be changed. It’s necessary to adapt the development of IT and ICT in educational system. Web based learning or virtual learning is to be captured in the whole learning procedure globally. Now E-learning is more effective than traditional learning. In this piece of writing I am trying to draw a proposed model of LIS education for E-Learning environment
