Condition of Librarians at Kendriya Vidyalyas
Dear Professionals
I was going through verious Forums on KVS at this website and got the information on the condition and situation of Librarians in KVS which jolted me completely.
i) ย One professional said that that he was forced by the principal to do clerical work after the school hours when all the teaching staff in gone home and on refusal the principal gave him an advisory note. He was so frustrated by the torcher of the Principal that he resigned from the job within 6 months of his joining KVS.
ii) Other professional complained that the posting are given even 2500 Kms away and one can never settle as the transfers are scheduled every three years all over India. The individuals from Delhi are given Assam and Assamies are posted in Delhi or UP.
iii) Other said that there is no value of a librarian in KV as all the FALTU (trivial) works of the school an assigned to the Librarian only and make the life hell.
All the professionals who are in touch with KVS are requested to provide the real situation of Librarian in this institution please. Are the above mentioned problems take place exceptionally or this is a common thing to happen in KVS.
Any information in this matter will be of high value for all the aspirants who are waiting for KVS result.
With Warm Regards
Manish Gargย

What work sir?
When system itself does not want you to do the library work, how will you do sir?
And if your work is evaluated by sub-staff, how will you feel sir?

ย I wish to put forth some problems, issues and working conditions of KV librarianโs ........ย
- Librarian is single staff and it is a very tough task for a single librarian to handle a class of fifty students in a 40 minute period. In this 40 minute library period, he or she provides issue & return services, maintain discipline and open access to the students. Meanwhile, he or she has to keep birdโs eye watch on students to avoid theft, tearing of pages and magazines and mischief by the students. According to new library policy almost libraries are automated and one man cannot manage the whole library. Therefore, following structure of Library Staff is required for the schools.
The Library Staff of Secondary School should consist of
Librarian โ Oneย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย
Assistant Librarian- Oneย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย Library Attendant- One
- Librarian is categorized as a miscellaneous category of staff. Music Teacher, Games Teacher, WET, Yoga Teacher and Librarian are included in this categorization except librarian all the other teachers are given PRT and TGT cadre respectively. Therefore,ย the post librarian should be re-designated ย as TGT (Library & Information Science :LIS)
- No Promotion policy for Librarians .
- We should be permitted to appear in the departmental exams for promotion for Vice Principals.ย
