Introduction The unprecedented developments in the field of Information and Communication Technology and the rapid advancements in the internet technologies and services have a transformative influence on how information is accessed and disseminated throughout the world. The current transformation has facilitated access to enormous amount of information and a wide variety of services to enhance the use and delivery of such information. This has resulted in a disparity of information overload at one hand and information scarcity on the other especially because of the inability to exploit the advancements of technology. As new technologies and services emerge, new challenges start surfacing. These new challenges have pushed the library and the information professionals to be well equipped to tackle these challenges. While acknowledging the changes taking place in the mode and service of information delivery and usage, it is important that the library profession rediscover the need of the industry and the nation so that it can re-evaluate its services, revitalize the users and reinvigorate the library professional. The future of the libraries and information centres depend on the information professionals to have an in-depth understanding of these emerging changes and equip them accordingly. In particular, they need to learn skills that allow them to find, manage, share and use information and knowledge. They need information literacy to supplement their information and management skills in order to upgrade their libraries and information centers as per the modern day.

In this conjecture Emerging Trends and Technologies in Libraries and Information Services (ETTLIS) emerged as a platform to bring together the current generation librarian with future generation librarian to discover new avenues of the library and information services. To achieve this objective ETTLIS is holding its regular events from time to time.

Background of ETTLIS

The First ETTLIS (2008) was held during December 18-20, 2008 at JIIT Noida. There were more than 300 participants from 12 countries including India. 87 research papers were presented and the proceedings were published as a peer-reviewed conference volume. The Second ETTLIS (2010) was organized at JUIT, Solon, during June 3-5, 2010. There were more than 400 participants from 20 different countries participated and166 presented their papers.
