Its official now: Library Legislations or Library Acts cannot make Public Library System independent and can't stop political influence. - LIS Links2024-03-29T08:09:35Zhttp://lislinks.com/forum/topics/its-official-now-library-legislations-or-library-acts-cannot-make?commentId=2013205%3AComment%3A389838&x=1&feed=yes&xn_auth=noDear Sri Iranna Shettar,

<p>Dear Sri Iranna Shettar,</p>
<p></p>
<p>Thanks for your mail.</p>
<p>However, I could not find acceptable reasons of yours <em><strong>being Shocked</strong></em> with the UGC announcement ( I have not seen it but I'd love to know the source though!)</p>
<p>Rather, we should be thankful (if they indeed have made such a statement) because they have SPOKEN THE TRUTH at least! However, as I personally feel, the statement holds good not only to Public Libraries but also to…</p>

<p>Dear Sri Iranna Shettar,</p>
<p></p>
<p>Thanks for your mail.</p>

<p>Rather, we should be thankful (if they indeed have made such a statement) because they have SPOKEN THE TRUTH at least! However, as I personally feel, the statement holds good not only to Public Libraries but also to other types of libraries as well.</p>
<p>In places, situations are so polluted that competent persons rarely opts for certain places. <strong>I myself witnessed selection of a University Librarian within <span style="text-decoration: underline;">FIFTY SEVEN SECONDS</span>!!</strong> It was a couple of years ago and the situation is no better even in recent time. One of my close friend joined in an university Library and <strong>WITHIN THREE MONTHS</strong> s/he resigned and rejoined into her/his old place!!</p>
<p>A national research Institute has virtually closed down its Library on the plea of renovation. The library is being renovated since last 18 Months!!</p>
<p>A Public Library however has a committee presumably constituted from heterogeneous group of people but since money comes from government towards Salary of Staff and recruitment are made through government, political intervention is therefore quite natural.</p>
<p>But as you can see from my above narratives, situations in other Libraries are no better.</p>
<p>As such, I convey my sincere appreciation to UGC as at least they have shown the courage to confess the truth.</p>
<p></p>
<p></p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p></p>

Totally agree with you, I also gave the feedback but UGC did not make any change.
