Suggestions / Comments on "UGC Regulations 2013."

Dear Friends,
UGC had earlier invited comment / suggestions on the draft Regulations Title "UGC (Approval of Colleges Offering Technical and Professional Education by Universities) Regulations 2013."
After reviewing comments / suggestions UGC is going to finalize the regulations.
Regarding Library staff i have following suggestions
 
1. There should be norms regarding Library staff. 
    The staff student ratio should be specified strictly.
    Additional staff for PG courses.
    Additional staff second shift.
 
Regarding online  / e-journals i have following suggestions
1. All e-journals / e-resources should be procured through AICTE-INDEST Consortia. It will beneficial we will get highly discounted rates of subscription and better terms of agreement with the publishers. We can control the subscription rates in future.
 
2. There should be a single subscription for a campus. When a mandatory e-resource is common for various courses (eg. IEEE for Engineering & MCA) and if such courses are in a campus, connected through LAN then a single subscription for a campus is sufficient, making subscription of same e-resource mandatory to each course is wastage of Indian money. Maximum publisher are foreign publishers & paying extra to them is wastage. Every year educational institutes in India are providing business of more than Rs. 1,500 crore to foreign publishers.
3. Mandatory E-resources should be relevant to course. Publisher should prepare standard packages relevant to course only.
4. Instead of Mandatory subscription to all e-resources their should be provision of payment against required / downloaded papers only. 
5. While making any E- resources mandatory its previous years usage must be analysed.
Dear friends we have to check each and every clause of the draft related to our field & give suggestions / comments before it became regulations.
Please post your valuable suggestions / comment on various groups, Make awareness, collect maximum suggestions. Appeal everybody to send email individually to UGC on kpsingh.ugc@nic.in.
Send your suggestions / comments should reach to above email id kpsingh.ugc@nic.in. on or before 30
th December 2013 up to 5.00pm.
Regards.
