English abstract

This study makes an attempt to see whether the library and information support rendered by Kerala Institute of Local Administration (KILA) to the elected functionaries of Village Panchayats who come to KILA for enhancing their capacity by taking part in the training programmes, is efficacious and if not, to suggest measures for betterment. It is expected that the values they acquire and the attitudes they develop through training will capacitate them to offer their services and participation in Working Groups and Technical Advisory Committees even after the expiry of their term in the respective Panchayats, Municipalities and Municipal Corporations.
