Re: [LIS-Forum] Regarding Joining the Management Libraries Network ( MANLIBNET) *

Hello all Its good to join such networks and associations, ya I agree, they provide common forum to library professionals, they develop understanding and cooperation among libraries and librarians, for sure they share resources and information, but I would like to know how they identify and overcome problems and exploitation being faced by the library staff?? Ya, I know those who have been in private sector much be awared of the problems, coz they themselves might have faced themselves, but how to overcome these problems. Not every one can switch to govt sector, not everyone can attaing various qualifications or can pursue further studies. In my knowledge, I never seen any Library association acted upon to reach the AICTE or NAAC to tell them that their norms are not being actully applied in their so called affiliated institutions. No pay commission, no 5 day working policies are being actually taking any place in privated sector. Library staff are deprived of facilities which are being given to the teaching staff. Why such private sectors are so fearless about such norms or guidelines, only bcoz they have enough sources that even inspections couldn't find anything fishy there. What kind of inspections are these if they are preplanned or give enough time to the institution to prepare data and their institution what to show to the inspection team, some times such these teams dont even come to take round to actual place either, they sit in well decorated conference rooms, see well prepared paper work and data, have their breakfast n lunch and moves back. Whose going to put a check on them, whose going to show them the actual picture, not a single person or a small group can raise their voices being uncertain job market, where there is no value of employee. Libraries can be handled by attendents even, stability of Librarians is no more required,employees need jobs but jobs dont need proper qualified employees, there is lack of jobs, not of employees. Can't our Library Associations n professionals talk to the AICTE and NAAC teams to join hands and see the actual conditions of the Libraries and Library staff in these private institutions not like any preplanned inspection teams but like vigilation department Wish to like to views of all the Library professionals ..........................................
