Which was the first Indian university that has changed the Diploma Course in Library Science to B.Lib.Sc. ?
Answer: C
The first university to convert its diploma course into the B.Lib.Sc. degree was Aligarh Muslim University.
In the early decades of library education in India, universities offered a post-graduate diploma in library science. Aligarh Muslim University is credited in the standard accounts of Indian library education with being the first to replace the diploma with a bachelor's degree, the B.Lib.Sc., a pattern later followed across the country.
Delhi University is remembered for other firsts, the first full master's degree and doctoral programme in library science under Ranganathan. Madras is remembered for the certificate course begun in 1929 by the Madras Library Association, and Banaras Hindu University for an early diploma course, but neither was first with the B.Lib.Sc.
