How to make API score?
by vinod mishra 27 Sep '15

27 Sep '15

Dear All, First time i paid attention on how to make API score for higher position like Dy. Librarian and Librarian and found its very easy for all particularly with reference to writing edited book/journal articles etc. But as i seen new guidelines which is linked below indicates research project and Phil/Phd guide is also mandatory. Now my question is how AL/DL/Librarians can guide Mphil/Phd if as per new rules distance mode has been banned and guide should belongs to the course conducting university or its affiliated college only. Please suggest III (Research and Academic contributions) shall have following capping in relation to the total API score claimed by the candidates: III (A) : Research papers (Journals, etc) 30% III (B) : Research publications (Books, etc) 25% III (C) : Research Projects 20% III (D): Research Guidance 10% III (E): Training Courses and Conf/Seminar, etc 15% http://www.ugc.ac.in/pdfnews/8539300_English.pdf Further, writing Book himself as author also seems not more beneficial in terms of making API but writing edited book seems more beneficial as it will provide 10/05 marks for each contributed chapter means if 20 chapter than editor will get 20X10=200 API, please clarify? -- *With Regards,Vinod Kumar Mishra,Assistant Librarian,Biju Patnaik Central Library (BPCL),* *NIT Rourkela,* *Sundergadh-769008,* *Odisha,* *India.* *Mob:91+9439420860* *Website: http://mishravk.com/ <http://mishravk.com/>* -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
