Information and communication technologies (ICTs) have made a profound impact on the life and work of people. In the context of library landscape, the impact of ICTs is seen in the areas of library automation, library and knowledge networking, as well as information storage and retrieval. LIS education and practice have been profoundly influenced by the electronic resources and the Internet-based services. But the library and informational professionals (LIPs) are faced with a diametrically opposite situation with declining library budgets on one side and growing user expectations on the other. On the top of it, LIPs are required to manage funds for the integration of ICT-based products and services and acquire new competencies to provide real-time access to quality information to the end-users. There is an information deluge and lot of chaos on the web in the public domain. The information and knowledge seekers are overwhelmed with the growing information deluge in the digital age. Therefore. it is incumbent upon the LIPs to develop information literacy skills among the end-users and bring order to the web-based chaos. Knowledge organisation has been first love of Professor Satija. His focus has been on study and teaching of various classification schemes and indexing languages. This volume is, indeed, a compendium of professional developments, trends and strategies for dealing with the shifting sands of library landscape. The compliments, perceptions and papers in this volume have been organised into 16 different sections. Besides presenting information about the hidden aspects of the personality of Professor M P Satija, the papers in this Festschrift focus on bibliometrics and scientometrics, information needs and reading habits, information literacy, knowledge management and organisation, library knowledge networking, institutional repositories and library consortia, digital age an computer anxiety, library and information services, digital preservation, LIS education, personal and professional competencies, and change management and empowerment. This volume is an essential reading for all those students, teachers, researchers, library and information professionals who are interested in learning about the life and works of Professor M P Satija, as well as the leading and cutting-edge of the library and information profession in the digital age. in fact, this volume is an academic feast for the stakeholders.
