Dear Sir In the June 2012, edition of UGC Net one of the questions was related to the Browne Charging System (Paper III, Q. 49), wherein it was asserted and even validated by the UGC furnished key that Browne Charging System is simple and less time consuming. If it would had been simple and time efficient why there was need to develop other manual methods - Ranganathan ticket system, Newark and Detroit methods etc. Besides, how could we justify the statement when these manual methods are not in vogue and are replaced by library automation packages? Even we are witnessing the phasing out of Barcode circulation with RFID enabled circulation. Your kind advice/comments is/are requested in this matter With Regards Tariq Ahmad Shah Research Scholar DLIS, University of Kashmir -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
