About the Book
This dictionary has been specially compiled to provide a comprehensive collection of acronyms and abbreviations used in the fields of education, psychology, information science, and computer science. Acronyms and abbreviations play an important role in simplifying long multi-worded terms and phrases, saving valuable time and space while also serving as memorable and widely recognized expressions in professional and academic communication.
While separate dictionaries are available for individual disciplines, this publication addresses the need for a multidisciplinary reference source useful to educators, librarians, information specialists, researchers, and computer professionals. The dictionary has been designed to support readers seeking accurate expansions and meanings of abbreviations commonly used across education, information science, and computing environments.
The volume contains more than 10,000 acronyms and abbreviations arranged alphabetically for quick and easy reference. It provides extensive international coverage with special emphasis on the Indian context. Where possible, acronyms and abbreviations in foreign languages are also included along with English translations of their expanded forms.
The publication covers a broad range of categories including associations, societies, organizations, educational institutions, conferences, workshops, journals, books, psychological tests, databases, software packages, information centres, government agencies, commercial firms, research projects, and specialized services related to education, information science, and computer technology.
Written as a practical reference tool, this dictionary is highly useful for students, teachers, librarians, researchers, information professionals, computer scientists, academicians, and professionals seeking quick access to technical abbreviations and acronyms used in academic and professional communication.
