Career Advancement Scheme for Librarians under the UGC Scheme
by Gopakumar Velayudhanpillai 03 Nov '14

03 Nov '14

Dear professional friendsI would like to bring your attention to a very tricky situation being faced by librarians working in colleges and universities under the UGC Scheme.As per the UGC Scheme, the Career Advancement from College Librarian to Senior Grade and Selection Grade positions are carried out based on the API (Academic Performance Index), which includes components like teaching, research, publications etc and each having a cap on it. None of the librarians in colleges and universities teach in their respective institutions. As such attaining the minimum prescribed API Score is a difficult proposition. The Librarians are also not given projects by the UGC and hence attaining scores through it becomes difficult. I think many librarians will be facing this, but nobody has come up with a plan of action to bring this issue before the concerned authorities. Those who are aware of any such activities kindly place it before the professionals. Otherwise we may come together with a plan of action at the earliest for justice. Dr GOPAKUMAR V.
