ARE THE LIBRARY ASSOCIATIONS IN INDIA PLAYING THEIR ROLE PROPERLY?

Associations and Professional Societies are powerful forces representing the voice of the
professional community to solve the problems related to the welfare, status, working conditions, physical facilities, education and training including the research and development activities.I think that, in our country ILA is not playing its role in a proper manner on various issues like,
1. To improve the conditions of school libraries and school librarians.
2. Enactment of State library legislation.
3. The Growth and Development of Public Library System.
4. To improve the status of library professionals.


Please give your opinions and what steps should be taken for the solution for the same.

Its not doubt that Library Association in India has failed to fulfill their aim and role because every organization duty to do such good effort to improve the service condition people working in that field but these organization are only to do works for few Librarians and their desire and they ignore that so many people work under the librarian in the library. That people are also the part of organization. They also need better service condition and required better promotion policy to achieve their aim . If a person appointed under the librarian what a future of that person. Why a person to attract for the field of library science and only a librarian can not manage a library alone sporting staff is necessary and if staff is necessary the better chance of carrier is also necessary for go ahead. If we see in the light of better opportunity no one attract in this field future. So I think all Library Association and organization are fail to achieve there target and totally failed to fulfill their aim. In my view the future of this field person are dark.

you are right sir

 

I think, in the name of library associations there is monoply of some well known professionals and they are centered to  themselves only. For the welfare of library professionals,Professionals themselves have to stand for status, facilities and working conditions  etc.

Dear Dr. Pachauri

 

How many associations in India , which are playing their role properly?

 

R.K.Sinha

I think young people come forward and take the action against these issues rather blaming the association

Dear Dr. Pandey

 

I am 100% agree with you but old people don,t want to give any opportunity and responsibility to young professionals.

 

R.K. Sinha

rajeevji if people like u hve caliber u can take the responsibility under the guidance of seniors

agreed

I think so that their is not a single association , perhaps IASLIC is functioning properly.
