Article 19 in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights from 1948 is an eloquent and unique expression of these ideals stating that "e;everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers."e; The present volume is expected to be of immense value to the professional librarians, students of various library and information science programmes and faculty members.
