Academic Status to Librarian: UGC Letter and Court Order

Dear friends,

    For the information of all concerned the UGC letters on Academic Status for Librarians is attached. Also Delhi High Court's recent judgment containing long arguments on academic works of Librarians  is also provided. We have to defend all our legitimate rights and fight back all attempts from any quarters. Together we march to get the same designation of teachers and we have to teach a paper- information literacy and knowledge resources.

sir,

    Thanks for this information about the status of the Librarian. What is the status of the Asst. Librarian in the arts and science  college and what is the working hour of the library for asst. librarian?

 Many many thanks.My idea is that we should be united and make a joint-action committee.We shouldmove to Supreme Court for declaring librarians status in college at par with teachers.We have many documents to substantiate As the cases varies from different state to state,different type of affiliating professional bodies like IMC.CCIM,AITCE etc.,different type of universities and colleges,Supreme court will be right forum,I appeal librarian friends in New Delhi should take sincere efforts in this regard and every body should be ready for sharing cost involved in it.My personal appeal to LIS LINK to lead the matter.If we will succeed,this movement will be a significant  revolution after era of SR Ranganthan.

My personal support is always for the said cause.

Dear friends,

       Thanks to Mr. Barman for putting the UGC letters in the web site and others who actively participated in the discussion. Thus we can conclude that Librarians were granted academic status by UGC. But now as our Haryana friend remarks they are excluding librarians from the teaching community. If things are going like this Librarians will be out of UGC scheme in the next pay revision. The main reason I suspect Librarians use RTI Act effectively that pricks many UGC officials.So they try to teach librarians a lesson.

      Now the situation is DO or DIE. We should mount pressure on UGC through friendly MP's, Ministers and finally through Courts. This is a war  which we can not fail. We are fighting for the right cause. So we will win however tough it is.

                                                               Sunny Joseph, Keralam.

Dear Friends

The ultimate solution for this issue is the formation of Library Council of India. All other professional bodies have their own apex councils. When disputes arise, the Government and other statutory agencies generally take advise from these council. So work for such a great cause.

 

Sir,

I Joined as librarian in an E-Grade college in Kerala  in the last January. Till now I didn't got approval saying that as our college is a E grade college we have only the post of IV grade Librarian.But our college is getting UGC grant .A ccording to G.O (M.S)50/08 H.Edn dated 9/5/2008 as we are getting UGC grant , the librarian should be ugc qualified and should get UGC scale. Now my file is in Higher education. Whom I should approach for getting justice for me in this regard.Do you have any G.O regarding Librarian in UGC scale in an E grade college. please help...
