I am Nasreen, With a strong academic foundation in both Library and Information Science and History, I am dedicated to advancing knowledge and contributing to scholarly discussions in these fields. Holding master's degrees in both disciplines, my research and professional interests span the organization, preservation, and dissemination of information, as well as historical analysis that contextualizes past events to inform the present.
In the field of Library and Information Science, I have explored the crucial role of experiential learning in professional education. My book, *The Role of Internship in Library and Information Education: Benefits and Challenges*, examines the impact of internships on developing practical skills and bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world application. Through this work, I aim to highlight the evolving nature of library science and the necessity of hands-on training for future information professionals.
My passion for history is reflected in my book, *Agricultural System in Nineteenth Century Bengal: An Overview*. This study delves into the agrarian economy of Bengal during the colonial era, analyzing the socio-economic factors that shaped agricultural practices and their long-term effects. By critically engaging with primary sources and historical interpretations, I provide insights into the complexities of land tenure, production systems, and the influence of British policies on Bengal's agrarian society.
Balancing both fields, my work reflects a commitment to preserving historical knowledge while ensuring its accessibility through effective information management. I strive to contribute to academic discourse, research advancements, and practical applications in both history and library science.
My research aims to shed light on historical complexities while also advocating for innovative approaches in library and information science. Whether through analyzing Bengal’s agricultural past or improving library education, I am committed to knowledge creation, dissemination, and preservation for future generations.
