Role of Regulatory Bodies to upgrade the working conditions of the Library Professionals
The affiliation to every school, college, institute and university is given by the various regulatory bodies such as CBSE, UGC, AICTE, MCI, NCTE, UPTECH etc. All of these set minimum norms for appointment and pay scales of staff in such intitutions. I think these bodies give more emphasis on the appoinment and pay scales of the teachers of the intitutions (especially in Private Institutes) but they do not think and care about the appointment criteria, staff requirements and pay scales of the library professionals.
Is there any responsibity of such regulatory bodies in the selection,qualification and pay scales of the library professionals?

yes I agree but whose fault is that . I think we people are responsible . We join the institute at a less salary and so is the habit of management to hire the LIS professional at a gross salary that to vary less.
We should raise our voice against these malpractices.
