You should take stock verification report now with the sign of Head of the institution with the presence of staff.

 

You talk with the head of the institution about the condition of Library as well as the upcoming problems.

how much collection in library

22345 books are available in the library.
FIRST OF ALL U CHECK UR LIBRARY COLLECTION N VERIFY THE WHOLE STOCK AFTER THAT U GIVE A COPY TO D HEAD OF D INSTITUTION

First you count each and every Books and other material of the library and prepare a report after that you should match  this report with Accession register and find missing no. of the books after that you prepare a list of missing books with their prize after that you give a copy to the head of the department and also to the director of the institution after that you can take charge of the  library but remember if some books and other material are missing in your report so it is a responsibility of former librarian he/she should pay for this  you are not responsible for that,you should take charge only those books and other material those are Physically Verified by you.  

Best of Luck......

HI First you total number of Books in the library, 2) GET  the information how many books Issued to the Staff members,3)Check  Whether Stock verification has been done or not ,if done get the list of books lost.4) Number of book's cost recovered.5) Number of Boos weeded out of Library.6) Number of books not returned by the students ,those who  left the  Institution.7) Furniture Stock is also important. 8)Files 9)Registers

after all these get the sign of the previous  person who left  the Institution or Who was  in charge of the Library

So congratulation my professional friend

I agreed with all but do care fully. One things you must remember physical verification report is most important. You notice whole document of the library with rule regulation. Try to understand from old person working in your library for strength & weakness of that library. For missing book you write why? How? from where? it missing and note in accession register. you also use a separate register for it. In a short, advice you prepare a whole report of the library for taking charge and the report handover to the authority and keep a copy of that in your library as well as with you for your security purpose.
