Date: Thu, 6 Jan 2011 08:35:00 +0530 From: RK_Panda <rkpanda1568(a)gmail.com> Dear friends, Still there is lack of comprehensive policy on loss of books in library, however right now the standard lines in this regard are only available in GFR that is applicable to govt library only. while fixing the responsiblility several facts should taken into account like available manpower in library to reduce the loss, duration / working hours of library, type of library user (children / adult), accessibility etc. best wishes, remain thank u On Wed, Jan 5, 2011 at 12:57 PM, Mailing List Admin < mailman(a)ncsi.iisc.ernet.in> wrote: > Date: Wed, 5 Jan 2011 08:03:11 +0530 (IST) > From: kalpana miss <kalpanalib(a)yahoo.com> > > Mr. Prabhu, > > Kindly refer GFR(General Financial Rules) issued by Govt. of India about > physical verification of libraries.

Date: Tue, 4 Jan 2011 11:41:25 +0000 From: MN Seetharaman <mns27(a)hotmail.com> Dear Sri Prabhu, UGC has issued guidelines reg. physical stock verification of library books and write-off loss under certain limits of the books found rmissing or damaged during physical verification, provided the loss is not due to fraud, theft or negligence. The Physical Verification Committee has to make recommendations in this regard. The Librarian can not be held responsible unless he failed in his duties in not properly monitoring the issue and recall of books loaned to the users. In order to minimize the loss of books, you need to develop a good, computerized circulation system with provision for imposing fines for late or non-return of books by users. Please visit and study the modern library circulation systems in force in reputed libraries like NAL Bangalore, IISc, IIt Libraries and others.

Date: Tue, 4 Jan 2011 12:38:34 +0530 From: kit kanpur <kitlibrary2009(a)gmail.com> Dear Sir, When I was in the college library, our college library committee had prepared a policy for library, Weeding/ Write-Off/Losses was part of library policy: 1. On receipt of a written request from the Chief Librarian, the Principle shall appoint two members from the faculty for weeding of outdated, worn-out and/or seriously damaged or mutilated books and other materials. They shall submit their recommendations to the competent authority (the Vice Chancellor) for the write-off of such materials. 2. The concerned site librarian shall submit complete bibliographic detail of all books/non-print materials damaged, and/or worn-out through fair wear and tear to the Chief Librarian after physical verification. The Chief Librarian shall forward the same report to the competent authority for write-off action. 3. Losses to the extent of 3% per annum of the available stock in an open access library shall be written off by the competent authority. 4. Losses to the extent of 2% per annum of the available collection of a close access or partially open access library shall be written off by the competent authority. 5. Losses written off by the competent authority shall be struck-off from the stock and the records of the library, including public catalogues, and transferred to the withdraw register indicating the authority under which the losses were written off. 6. The permanent irrecoverable loans of mutilated, damaged and worn-out books found to be beyond repairs during the physical verification of the library shall also be reported to the competent authority for write-off. 7. For the losses beyond 3%, the Library Staff will be jointly responsible to make up the loss in accordance with their official status.
