UPPER AGE LIMIT FOR LIS JOB
I have qualified NET and posses master degrees in environmental science and in LIS. Also I have a long experience of working in a university library. But I have already completed the age of 54 years. Shall I be eligible to apply in another government job ? Is there any "no age bar" relaxation in Assistant Librarian job ?

Dear Sir,
If you are applying through proper channel, you may not face the age bar in most of the places. Normally the age bar is like that " preferably below 45 years or so". In that case it is not hard, you may go through because of your experience.

Sir,
Through your writings you r felt to be qualified and experienced person in Lis profession. But in different matter I need all LIS members suggestion regarding extension of age of retirement for academic staff means for teachers and librarians. It has been raised upto 62 years from 60yrs before and that is injustice for fresh candidates, they have to wait for more years and face more competition ahead.
I personally feel those who are still jobless but NET qualified candidates can come together on this platform and raise voice against this injustice.
Convey your opinion to me at earliest.
