Dear Sir,

Generally there is a policy in the library to dispose-off old newspapers after six months or one year. First of all a “Newspaper Dispose off Committee” has to be formed up for that purpose which constitutes Librarian, One person from Accounts section, one from store and purchase section.

The committee further calls for quotations from local parties interested in purchasing old newspapers. The committee then recommends to sale the old newspapers (except previous I month newspapers) to the highest quoting party. The cash, whatever, received is then deposited in the accounts section (Institute Account or Registrar’s account).

Hope the above answers you query

Regards,

thanks for your  valuable reply

Dear Sir,

 Is it needed to  keep News paper  for 6 months? since we have  e- edition nowadays.. normally we  dispose as  and when  except  the collection of previous 1 month paper. We sell it and collect the cash together  and we get books for library.. The library policy may differ know ? please confirm  sir.

Dear sir,

Let me know whether the amount got out of selling can be utilized for library or it should be paid in the college office?

Regards,

A.Mala

Dear mam,

I don't know in which org. you are working in. But in case it is govt venture, you are sure not authorized to use the money on your own which is earned by selling old newspapers. You have to either deposit it in institute account or take a formal approval of competent authority to utilize that money.


regards,

dear mam

institute account
