Answer: A
Library science education in India started at Baroda.
Maharaja Sayajirao Gaekwad III of Baroda invited the American librarian William Alanson Borden to organise a library system for the state. Borden started a training class for library workers at Baroda in 1911, the first formal library science training in India.
Lahore (Punjab University, 1915) and Madras (the Madras Library Association's course of 1929) followed later. Bombay's diploma course began in the 1940s, and New Delhi's university programme under Ranganathan came after Independence, so none of them was the starting point.
