Alarming Situation to Librarian in the country
by Mahendra Mete 01 Jan '18

01 Jan '18

*Alarming Situation to Librarian in the country * i want to extend the discussion which P. Mounissamy made in his email. The MHRD degraded the position of Dy.Librarian/Asst.Librarian in NIT. The NCTE also abolished the post of Librarian in Teaching cadre and suggested to appoint Librarian with B.Lib in Non academic staff. As a result the post of Librarian in Government Degree colleges in Education which is in UGC pay scale is abolished by the state govt.of Maharashtra. It will result in many aided college and in future the existing post in UGC pay scale will be abolished. The policy regarding the library personnel is changing very adversely and will hurt the library profession. In the era of globalization and IT ,where the world is giving priority to knowledge management to serve the knowledge society. Our country policy makers are doing wrong and will affect the future of the country. The Library & Information Professional Association should raise the issue to MHRD and the concerned authority. This is the time of struggle for LIS professionals.

MHRD recruitment rules for non-teaching staff of NITs
by mailman＠ncsi.iisc.ernet.in 29 Dec '17

29 Dec '17

---------------------------- Original Message ---------------------------- From: mouni(a)nitt.edu Date: Fri, December 29, 2017 11:31 am -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Friends, Recently MHRD released the recruitment rules for non-teaching staff of National Institutes of Technology. It is surprising and shocking to note that Librarian has been made on contractual/deputation. The Dy. and Asst. Librarians Grade pays have been decreased to Rs.7600 and 5400 respectively instead of Rs.8000 and Rs.6000/. Incumbents who are already appointed in the GP of of Rs.8000 and Rs.6000/- will be moved to Rs.8600 and 6600 respectively after five years of services. The post of Assistant Librarian does not require UGC-NET qualification but made it desirable. NITs, institutes of National Importance, are raising their status to world class by demotivating and degrading the Library staff. Now this is a slow poison for NITs and slowly the will be introduced to all other institutions. I bring this matter to the notice of professional friends and associations to rise the matter with MHRD to restore the status of Library professionals at NITs at par with UGC rules. With regards, P. Mounissamy
