Suggestions / Comments on "UGC Regulations 2013."

Dear Friends,
UGC had earlier invited comment / suggestions on the draft Regulations Title "UGC (Approval of Colleges Offering Technical and Professional Education by Universities) Regulations 2013."
After reviewing comments / suggestions UGC is going to finalize the regulations.
Regarding Library staffย i have following suggestions
ย 
1. There should be norms regarding Library staff.ย 
ย  ย  The staff student ratio should be specified strictly.
ย  ย  Additional staff for PG courses.
ย  ย  Additional staff second shift.
ย 
Regarding online ย / e-journals i have following suggestions
1. All e-journals / e-resources should be procured through AICTE-INDEST Consortia. It will beneficial we will getย highly discounted rates of subscription and better terms of agreement with the publishers. We can control the subscription rates in future.
ย 
2.ย There should be a singleย subscriptionย for a campus. When a mandatory e-resource is common for various courses (eg. IEEE for Engineering & MCA) and if such courses are in a campus, connected through LAN then a single subscription for a campus is sufficient, making subscription of same e-resource mandatory to each course is wastage of Indian money. Maximum publisher are foreign publishers & paying extra to them is wastage. Every year educational institutes in India are providing business of more than Rs. 1,500 crore to foreign publishers.
3. Mandatory E-resources should be relevant to course. Publisher should prepare standard packages relevant to course only.
4. Instead of Mandatory subscription to all e-resources their should be provision of payment against required / downloaded papers only.ย 
5. While making any E- resources mandatory its previous years usage must be analysed.
Dear friends we have to check each and every clause of the draft related to our field & give suggestions / comments before it became regulations.
Please post your valuable suggestions / comment on various groups, Make awareness, collect maximum suggestions. Appeal everybody to send email individually to UGC onย kpsingh.ugc@nic.in.
Send your suggestions / comments should reach to above email idย kpsingh.ugc@nic.in. on or before 30
th December 2013 up to 5.00pm.
Regards.
