Dear Ms. Sheetal Sharma,
Thanks for your post.
As far as I know, there is no fixed rates for such jobs.
To avoid controversies/audit queries, you can do two things
1. Ask for price rates and prepare a comparative statement and place order thereafter
2. Enquire from other College Libraries about the rates they are working with. Get WRITTEN & SIGNED reply to your queries. Order to them on the basis of the certificate.
This way, you can keep your hands clean!
Sincerely,
Siddhartha S. Ray, Calcutta

Dear Madam,
I would like to suggest, "appoint a passed-out student, very good in classification and cataloguing for 3 or 6 months on a temporary profile(if possible offer a job) and let your job done. I know fresh MLIS students are very good classification like a senior professional.
...because the rate of such kind of jobs can't be identified easily, which could lead lots of questions and controversies at the later stage.Thank you.
