Dear All

To start with, you may send an e-mail complaint to Monster.com eliciting your objections to the offending TV advertisement. The complaints may be sent to ceo@monsterindia.com

I have already lodged a protest with Monster.com, the copy of which is appended below for your reference purpose only:

----------------------------------------- Dear Sir

Your recent TV advertisement shows a Librarian in a very objectionable state which is not acceptable to Librarian fraternity at large. Librarians are dynamic information fountainheads serving the entire society.

May i hereby request you to kindly withdraw or suitably ammend the said advertisement in the larger interest of learning society.

Thanking you in anticipation

Sincerely

Mukesh Anand ---------------------------------------------

Dear All,

We should represent in strong voice by memorandum to this perticular TV channel through our reputed/recognised association.

I hope our associations will take this matter in favour of Indian library profesiionals.

Friends,

Monster.com's recent advertisement in television portraying librarian as a boaring profession is a negative and bad publicity to the profession.

We must protest against it and request the agency whosoever to stop broadcasting such ads.
