!!DOOMSDAY!!! nearing for our Profession (if we sleep now)

Dear fellow Professionals and respected one its a very sad development that the DOOMSDAY for the Library Professionals is nearing in general and in particular in our country. See the link below about vacancy for Library cum informatics Officer in a Central Govt autonomous institution. We should raise our voice unitedly against such unjustful strategies from the policy makers. Our professional qualification limits our job scope to only the Libraries, but Computer professionals have far more avenues to try for a job. Why are some of the people desperate to throttle our profession for benefit of some so called elites? Please raise your voice, share your concern otherwise the coming generation of our profession (if survives) will blame the present lot.

I invite suggestion from everyone. We must share our viewpoints so that some concrete solution can be arrived at regarding such problems which to my point of view will become common in coming days.

Dear Neeraj Sir
You are absolutely right. It's totally unfair. Few months before Sarv Shiksha Abhiyan of Haryana Govt. advt. more than 3118 post for Information and Library managers. But we are unable to fill the forms due to the qualification criteria. 2nd time NABI is also following this practice. I am working as a Information Scientist cum Librarian in private Group. Due to this practice continuously going on I am also predicting that my future into darkness along with all professionals or its very limited now. Should we change our profession and again do the B.Tech, M.Tech or MCA.
All professionals should raise the hands together for stopping this type of unfair practice.

Thanking you

With regards,
Rajnish Sharma
