Abstract
There has been a definite transition in the nature of Librarianship or LIS Professionals over the recent years,
the main reason being the technological advances which have influenced the field of Library and Information
Sciences. Along with the changing nature of libraries, the job profile and responsibilities of the librarians
or LIS Professionals have also changed manifold. In the changing times it has become necessary for the
librarians to equip themselves with the upcoming and reigning technologies to remain relevant and to
provide the required service to their potential users as well as actual users. This paper attempts to portray the various aspects of Web 3.0 and semantic web technologies and describes the changing role of the LIS professional in the present scenario.
