Dear Madam,

There is no post of chief Librarian in Universities as i know. But generally, We call the chief librarian to the Head Librarian, University Librarian, Main Librarian etc.

Another aspect is that in an environment where more then one libraries are running in an organization or institutions, the overall I/C of all libraries may be called Chief Librarian.

Librarian- To Manage the overall function the particular library.
Chief Librarian- To control over all the librarian and responsible to functioning all the libraries.

Dear Madam,

There is no difference between both post but  sometime in case group of Institutions where more than one

institutes are running by the same society Chief Librarian control the important functions of all libraries. I am working as Chief Librarian in Mahakal Institute of Technology but there are 5 separate Institutions in our Campus (3 Engineering Institute, 1 Management and 1 Pharmacy ). All Institutes having separate librarians, Directors and other staff. All librarians look after their libraries independently but Quotation of purchasing books, Automation, Recruitment,  Working problems and other common important decision look after by me as chief librarian
