Dear LIS Professional friends, I do not know whether there is any order regarding 'librarian is eligible to teach......'. But there are certainly some orders related to the status of librarians of academic which speaks 'Librarians are academic Staff' / 'Librarians are non-vacational academic/teaching staff'. *As far as starting of new courses are concerned one must be careful to abide by the recent guidelines of the UGC. Please refer UGC notification D. O. F. No. 5-1/2013(CPP-II) dated 11.09.2015 to be read with UGC Public Notice No. F.5-1/13(CPP-II) dated 21.08.2014 and UGC notification dated 5th July 2014 on specification of degrees. *All of these three are self explanatory and many other related circulars/notifications are available in the UGC website. All professionals or decision maker should read them with patience before being over-enthusiastic to start a new course on Library Science of any level. On Thu, Dec 31, 2015 at 6:29 PM, M.S.
