Dear Profession,
In Tamil Nadu Government they have not been recruiting Librarian for School. Other Subject Teacher have been doing Librarian Role in Many of the School. Even Bharathiyar University also stopped to conduct the SET in Tamil Nadu. Can you tell that University they didnot conduct SET. Why it happened in Tamil Nadu. in-case i will try to attend other state set exam if I will clear SET exam that will valid in Tamil Nadu also or when Bharathiyar University and Tamil Nadu School Education to start examination and recruitment.
Dear Profession Kindly clear my doubts

Tamil Nadu is ironic, for it was here that the first Public Libraries Act of independent India was enacted in 1948.
The state has one of the biggest Library in South Asia, A world-class public library built at a cost of Rs. 172 crore
The fact is the library is kept open for public since Sept 2010
Only for referring purpose, without any membership no photocopy services etc.
Children's are not able to lend books
The authority concerned must see what they have done for Children's Education.
Keeping the Children's section open, and not promoting it for access to information such as lending books, is it a public library policy http://www.nmlindia.nic.in/pages/display/24
More than 75% school libraries in Tamil Nadu work without staff

Dear Abilash,
The library exists just because the High Court and judicial power is still alive. To add, there had been no exclusive director with LIS professional degree for Tamilnadu Public Libraries. It will be the additional post of the Joint Director/ Director, Department of School Education. They don't have enough time really and its the additional responsibility/burden assigned to them. Another file suit is pending in the High Court regarding the qualification for the post to be filled. The Government appoints a person who has no professional degree in library science to lead the department as though no competent professionals are available for the designation.
Practically speaking, of what u had mentioned the "concerned authorities" has the powers only in papers. As u know, Government is always powerful than anyone else. What they decide, it will happen or they can make it as "let it happen" naturally. No library association has given a word of oppose, when the announcement came to shift this library. It was really the Court, a bravo Judge Mr. Chandru who slapped the move and condemned the government. Writers, students supported and started the online petition which stopped the further move. A complete revamp of the present system with transparency alone can show some change. Don't know really who can and when will it happen is a big question and i submit it to the forum. Photocopy facilities were given few months before and now it has been temporarily stopped due to delayed formalities. It will be started soon, I believe.
Membership forms to the kids section were distributed, collected and data were also loaded but came to halt after the government's move. U can post and I can share my thoughts as reply but only the supreme government can decide.
with best regards,
Raaga
Thanks for the update Raaga,
If democracy allows an eligible citizen to elect a representative, the same democracy allows the eligible citizen to select a representative.

sir,
You ask Bharathiyar University, to when conduct the SET exam, because Bharathiyar University is the Agency of SET exam. ( Ask RTI (Right To Information ACT) then only you get answer from them)
TN government is very worst, and that is why no SET exam for long years. You can try to clear NET exam and apply for Ph.D. Otherwise proceed through RTI or move to court
bharathiyar university failed all court steps(even supreme court) formal set exam result. now the university apply review petition in supreme court. the judgement is waiting...
in tamilnadu, the gvernment seeks only the reformation in celone fisher man problem TASMAC development and caste politics.
still you are believe the government for the intellcetual and scientific approches in all position...sorry you will cheat yourself.
If you can and believe yourself you are a good librarian and you will do something for this society then you may try other state.but HINDI language is must for this. but our political leaders strongly oppose this.
LONG LIVE TAMILAGAM, DRAVIDAM,
We have only 4042 libraries
Dr.S R Ranganathan thought was to "Make the common man love books and cultivate reading habit"
TASMAC in TN is growing total 6823 Retail Outlets
TASMAC
Don’t make the common man love TASMAC and cultivate drinking habit
Don’t let the day that goes by somebody being stabbed or assaulted
Thank you to Abilash, Raaga, Murugaiah, Babu RT and Vaidyanathan those who have given emotional and responsible reply to me. Thanks Once again. We are expecting Judiciary justice from Supremecourt. We trust Law and wait and see.
Thanks
Regards
