The paper aims to find out the employability skills and competencies imparted in LIS schools to work efficiently in libraries. A structured questionnaire was used to collect data from LIS professionals working in different special libraries in New Delhi. The findings revealed that with the changing information and communication technology environment, a set of technological skills are highly desirable, nevertheless such new desired skills are lacking among LIS professionals. There are many factors responsible for lacking the suitable skills, however the majority of the professionals are of the opinion that the LIS curriculum and training imparted in LIS schools of the country are not providing sufficient competencies needed for working in special libraries and its orientation is not relevant with the new changing landscape of librarianship.
