Is it NON-VOCATIONAL OR NON-VACATIONAL....????? Kindly check it.
VOCATION Means Job, Occupation or business. So as per notification Librarianship is neither a job nor an occupation.
If I am correct than get it rectified as early as possible. Otherwise we'll loss the sanctity of our profession.
rgds.
