Documentation Research and Training Centre (DRTC) is a research centre (and a department) for library and information science and allied disciplines at the Indian Statistical Institute,Bangalore. The Centre was established in April 1962, under the auspices of Prof. S. R. Ranganathan (considered to be the father of modern library and information science in India) with the encouragement of Prof. P. C. Mahalanobis at the Indian Statistical Institute. [1]
DRTC runs a graduate program leading to the award of a 'Master of Science in Library and Information Science' (MS-LIS) from the Indian Statistical Institute as well as serving as an academic and research center for Research Fellows registered for a PhD in Information Science. DRTC is perhaps, India's only "proper" ischool with a very strong research program. Research at DRTC generally focuses on the application of information technology to library and information science. [1]
DRTC is widely considered to be the best research centre in India in the fields of library science and information science. It also has a very strong research program and a PhD collaboration with the University of Trento, Italy. [1]
