Can a Librarian add Prof. In Front of his/her name??

In my college i face a humiliating problem when any type of notice comes they put Prof. in front of every lecturer but in front of my name they put only shri. This type of treatment frequently occurs in many occasion like giving invitation card etc. I want to know that whether Prof. should or should not written in front of Librarian or this word is exclusive made for Lecturer? I am a full time ugc paid librarian in college. Should I talk to my principal since in some occasion he also does the same mistake

 u r a Prof. so u don't worry about any other. when other persons accept your quality and sharpness  automatically the were impress u. be happy. 

You can not write Prof. before your name.

even lecturers also can not.

I dnt know how your college given order to write prof. against their names.

its not just an initial, its a designation

This is true

Dear Sidurkar,

The term Professor might be used only for those having PROFESSOR scale. Even a lecturer (Assistant Professor/ Associate Professor) can not used the term Prof. with his/her name.  In case of Doctorate Assitant Professor/Associate Professor can put Dr. but not Prof. If you complete your Ph.d. you can also put Dr., but unfortunately when a university librarian attains the grade of professor (University Librarian has the same status of Professor) he also not liable to use Prof. in front of his/her name.

In our education system only Professor having full scale may use Prof.

super........ your sugg is very cleverly. we want uniformity through to india. we should  creat mail massage to UGC for convey for our right.  please maka unity for this matter.

appreciate your comments!!

first of all our designation should be changed as Asst. Professor in Library & information science. Thats why we need some forum to solve such type of problems. Myself librarian in Govt. First Grade College in karnataka & we have  given a memorandum to our state govt. to consider librarians as Asst. Professor (no-vocational staff)

 

 

Dear Mr.Naveen,

I am agree with you. should b change our degisnation. When a sports teacher called a sports officer so why should not call us Information officer. we deserve for it because we have whole information and we have knowledge. Every where management treat like a office staff. They dont  give respect mostly in private institutes.

There are many association but they cant take try for it.
