Future of librarianship is bright or dark in India ?

In our country librarians are facing following problems therefore a genuine question arises that future of librarianship is bright or dark in India.

1. Status issue at workplace and society

2. Salary and stipend = MNREGA Mazadoor

3. Exploitation in private sector

4. Non teaching Cadre in school/ college and university

5. Unemployment

6. No promotion opportunities for Librarians/ Asst. Librarians in school/ college and university.

7. Condition of School and Public libraries

8. Working Condition and pay scales of Public Libraries

9. No post of librarian sanction in UP State Government senior secondary school 

10. No post of librarians in ITIs

11. Less pay bands for librarians in Engineering College and Polytechnic colleges (AICTE norms)

12. Library act/ Legislation is still pending in more than one dozen states

13. Implication of Library act/ Legislation in various states.

14 .No major and minor projects for librarians by UGC.  

15. Our salary is 900 to 2,500 per month, but our expenditure on education is Rs. 25000 - 30000/- .

There may be various similar issues but No representation by library associations to Government or Authorities.
