Professional courses are much more attractive to the students and parents to get Job-confirmation after successful completion of the course. It was our curiosity, to explore the fact about the gap in between expectations of the users of Professional Faculties and the ability of the Libraries to meet the requirements of its users. The reasons of choosing professional faculties is of multi-fold such as; the faculty of Library and Information Science is considered under the professional faculties; it is observed that the students and members of faculty of the Professional faculties must have back ground of basic discipline and therefore study of professional faculties indirectly covers almost all the faculties; since the students are awaiting to get job immediate after completion of the course, so it is expected that the infrastructure including library will be as best as possible to enable them in the competitive job-market, etc. In view of the above the present study is an attempt to identify the problems faced by the users of the library, service provided by the library and finally study would like to provide some suggestions/guidelines to overcome the hurdles as traced out.

The study is an attempt to identify whether there is any role of library human resources in the successful completion of the ICTs application in the libraries. What are the problems behind under-performance of the library personnel? Is it possible to develop a scientific basis, for the period required to enter particular amount of data by using library management software?
