by jasim s 27 Dec '11

27 Dec '11

Dear colleagues I went to Kerala University UGC-JRF-grants section to enquire about full time research in LIS.I told the section clerk that i wish to join for full time research by availing 3 year leave without allowance .As i am a permanent employee now in MG university ,i need to take leave without allowance for doing full time research.The section clerk told me that i can register as a full time research scholar,but cannot avail JRF grants from UGC.He opines that grants are only meant for the unemployed,and none was given fellowship in Kerala university who availed leave without allowance or none did full time research after getting leave without allowance..He further said that if i want to get grants under JRF scheme ,i should go to UGC and obtain permission to avail JRF grants.He advised me to go through UGC X1 five year plan document to get more information regarding this!!! i wish to get advice from LIS-FORUM members 1)is there any norms from UGC prohibiting in availing JRF grants(full time research) for employed persons even if they took leave without allowance from their current service? i expect a speedy reply Jasimudeen.s Mahatma Gandhi University Kottayam Kerala -- Jasimudeen.s *Life is like a document:what matter is how good it is ,not how long it is"* * * *"Be in touch,I am just a mail away not a mile away"..* -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Know how you fared in NET, instantly
by Gurpreet singh 26 Dec '11

26 Dec '11

*Good News for ALL LIS Professionals* Students appearing for the National Eligibility Test (NET), 2012 will be able to evaluate their performance immediately after appearing for the much-simplified test. The University Grants Commission (UGC), which conducts the test for around 2.5 lakh students twice a year, on Thursday decided that candidates can take carbon prints of their optical reader answer sheets with them. This will enable students to know instantly how they have fared in the test, said UGC chairperson Ved Prakash. In another decision, the UGC has decided that all the question papers for the test will be objective type. Till now, two papers were objective and the third one subjective. This has led to delay in declaration of the results, sometimes forcing students to appear again. Students had earlier expressed their unhappiness over evaluation in the subjective type paper. Now, we will be able to declare the results much before next NET and to the satisfaction of students, Prakash said. The format will be applicable for the June 2012 exam and results will be announced by October before the next exam in December 2012. Only those who clear the NET are eligible for junior research fellowship and for appointment in colleges and universities. *Source HT 24-12-2011* *Gurpreet Sin**gh Libraries' In-Charge CT Group of Institutions Vill - Shahpur, P.O. - Udopur Via Jamsher Khas* *Jalandhar-144020 Punjab (India) Phone No.* +91-181-2995967/68 +91-181-5055125/26/27 Ext Library 219 ** email:- gpslibrarian(a)gmail.com ** ctlibrarian(a)gmail.com* *Website:- http://www.ctgroup.in **Click here for Library blog <http://ctiemtlibrary.blogspot.com/>* *Join LISPP "A Virtual Community of Library and Information Science Professionals of Punjab" <http://lispp.blogspot.com/>* ** <http://lispp.blogspot.com/> <http://goog_270314819/>**** -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
