E-Mail campaign - ILA get well soon

 

We should pray for Indian Library Association because ILA is suffering with Sleeping Sickness, so they can’t hear the voice and feel the pain of LIS professionals. Please forward the following matter with your best wishes to Honorable President and General Secretary of ILA. Every member of LISLINK should send the message so we could send our feelings to ILA.

 

Email:      anugupta160@yahoo.com                             Secretary

Today library professionals are facing a lot of problems and our professional organisation ILA is sleeping.

A library professional faces various problems/ hurdles every day, some of them are as under:

1. Status issue at work place and society

2. Salary and stipend = MNREGA Mazadoor

3. Exploitation in private sector

4. Non teaching Cadre in school/ college and university

5. Unemployment

6. No promotion opportunities for Librarians/ Asst. Librarians in school/ college and university.

7. Condition of School and Public libraries

8. Working Condition and pay scales of Public Libraries

9. No post of librarian sanction in UP State Government senior secondary school 

10. No post of librarians in ITIs

11. Less pay bands for librarians in Engineering College and Polytechnic colleges (AICTE norms)

12. Library act/ Legislation is still pending in more than one dozen states

13. Implication of Library act/ Legislation in various states.

14. Our salary is 900 to 2,500 per month, but our expenditure on education is Rs. 22,000/=.

15. Librarian Vacancy published by Haryana Government but qualifications MCA and BE.

 

There may be various similar issues but                                                                                         

No representation by ILA to Government or Authorities.

Sir i have submitted by speed post.

Dear learned professionals,

Mr. D V Singh President ILA gave a prompt reply to the E Mail campaign and he assured that he will do all possible effort to solve the various issues.

I wish to give thanks to all the forum member who forwarded our problems to President ILA.  

Please forward this messages to all Library associations , councils and Higher education departments in India

Yes sir I wish to convey the message to all the library associations.

Answer of ILA President 

First of all I would like to know about your ILA membership whether you are member or not if yes than give me details.
ILA is not sick it is functioning very well.If you feel that it is sick. How will you contribute to make it healthy. 
Merely forwarding the message will not serve the purpose.
I would request you to kindly send the details of your work you have done for the profession other than your job.
So far my knowledge is concern I have not heard your name EVER IN PROFESSION.
you SHOULD know that ILA is not a statutory body it is a voluntary professional body.I hope you understand the difference.there are some problem in Gujrat also what have you done regarding that.
To criticise is very easy but to do some thing in positive direction is very difficult
I hope you shall respond to my reply
Dr.D V Singh
President ILA 

If ILA  is doing well then why we are facing the problems?

ILA should represent themselves as a guardian of LIS professonals, is it?

The reply of Mr. DV Singh  clearly shows that we have to fight alone because all respected leaders are not with us.Uttar Pradesh Berojgar Pustkalaya Morcha is functionin and we are trying our level best. The work done by us is a completely irresponsible statement, we are doing very well and every fortnightly we are sending and submitting our memorandum to  Government authorities. We are also trying to contact local MP/MLA to raise the voice in the parliament/assembly.

If we have the National platform we can do a lot more than respected professionals. 

Dear Dr. Pachori

I have read the reply of the President, ILA. He has rightly wrote that, ILA is not a ILA is not a statutory body but, it is a voluntary professional body. If he says so, we can't blame ILA for the poor position of we professionals, but we can create new body. Let them work with their tradition, and make our own efforts to bring out our profession to the right level.

Mr. Rakesh K. Sharma and his team (including us) have already taken the action in this direction. Come and make strong the hand of new association and make it more powerful than ILA. The active association having more members than ILA can make impression through out the country. But we have to do something by ourselves in place of blaming ILA now. ILA President has given a very clear cut answer to our request.

He has also indicated that, person who is the member of ILA can only ask the question to ILA. It's true. We should take the membership of ILA and then we should ask the question to the authority strongly same as our this campaign.

The following are the classes & subscription amount for membership of the Association:
