In a library there is a book available, but the library has a rule of issuing 3 books per students. After issuing 3 books each to all the students, books are still available but not more. Once if it is issued again, some students will get the books what they wanted but some won't get. But books are for use, What is your view on this - is it better to issue the remaining books or to stick by rule and why/how is your opinion on it is better?

dear very simple, rules are basally made for properly working of library and your control on them as a librarian, so ultimately books are of use when it is used by user,
so be user friendly and be first in giving better servises
ok
so go ahead and issue them what they want and thats the demand from our proffession now.
but dear, won't it disturb the library rule and miss understanding among the students? which can effect the image of library staff like favoring one user over another?
Dear sir,
As a librarian we have to follow the library rule first ,secondly if do you think that after issuing that particular book to reader and that reader definitely use it or read it. so be flexible somewhere but remember sir ,all student are very cleaver ,don't do partiality.Allow them for limited period .for example -2 day. if that reader is really curious about the book so he will read it.
Thank you
Jo tonXing gi
U can do one more excellent thing,that u make "Reservation slip" .and give them particular time and day
( Example:-Saturday in recess) to come and reserved the book.Those student will come first they will get book first .
Format of reservation slip
Sr.No.....01
Name of student:-
class:- section:-
book's name:-
Part/vol.
Student sign.
According to this reservation slip's Sr. No. u also know that which student came first.n according to that u will issue them that book for limited days.
Same we are doing in our institute.
Good luck
dear library professionals..if you make law and order in the library then basic principles of library wont get satisfied.the main factors of the library are user, librarian and books.so be user friendly.be flexible and try to meet the needs of all the user.
good luck
Book are for use. But it does't mean that all the books to be circulated.
Have to motivate them to read in the Library.
