It is a good news shared by Raghavendra R . "Government schools in UP to have library by March 2020" https://www.hindustantimes.com/education/all-government-schools-in-up-to-hav... But the real issue we need to address. The issue is *Appointment of qualified Librarian in the school libraries.* Many government schools have libraries but authorities, they are not willing to appoint *qualified librarian*. We are doing professionals schools of Library science but there is no changes found in school libraries in India. We have to convince the authorities that *Librarian is essential like teacher.* BAIJU JOY MA MLISc, UGC-NET LIBRARIAN UGC DEPARTMENT OF LIBRARY AND INFORMATION ST STEPHEN'S COLLEGE PATHANAPURAM KERALA 689695 8943155044 *https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7348-0637 https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7348-0637* http://ststephenscollegelibrarypathanapuram.blogspot.in/ http://ststephenspathanapuram.ac.in/home/library/1 http://ststephenspathanapuram.ac.in/home/library/2 https://www.facebook.com/St-Stephens-College-Library-Pathanapuram-1608795476...

Infact Govt of Karnataka has also set up libraries in every school. Fact is the libraries are in the form of few cupboards housed either in staff room or head masters chamber. Provision for libraries without librarian that's the reality. This needs to be recorrected
