Job satisfaction in developing countries like INDIA is lower than that of developed countries. I think thatย the main reasons for this are lack of need for information, infrastructre , lacking of National library and information policyย and not giving essential value to the librarians and information experts. On the other handย in developed countries, information is more needed, Thus, this need arises the status of the librarian. So, it is harder to get job satisfaction in India.

ย 

so what may be the other reasons?

lack ofย  funding
Because the lack of resources

yes, it is one of the problem.

AS PER MY CONCERN LIBRARIAN SELF CREATE PROBLEM REGARDING THIS MATTER BCOZ WE LOVE OUR JOBS THEREFORE WE NEVER TALK TO OTHERS FOR REGARDS TO USย  AS WELL AS OUR POST. ย WE NEVER REPLY TO FACULTY OR MANAGEMENT FOR WRONG TALK BCOZ WE KNOW THAT AFTER IT WE CAN BE TERMINATED, THIS FEAR CREATE A PROBLEM. AND 2ND PROBLEM IS THAT WE COMPROMISE WITH OUR LOW SALARY. SALARY INDIRECTLY INDICATE OUR STATUS IN ORGNIZATION.IF WE R GETTING HIGH SALARY IT MEANS WE HAVE SOMETHING SPECIAL AND FACULTY AS WELL AS MANAGEMENT GIVE REGARD TO US. SO WE SHOULD FIRSTLY RESPECT OUR POST AND SELF CONFIDENT. WE R THE MAN OF INFORMATION. SO FIRSTLY PROBE YOURSELF AND DEMAND HIGH SALARY.IF I SAY ANY THING WRONG THEN FORGIVE ME.
no sir you are right but all the teachers and management think that librarians are not much important than other academic staff.
we have self respect for ourself and for the post, it not a self created problem.

The corporate librarians may have little bit higher satisfaction than the academic librarians.

The order of job satisfactory level.

ย 

Corporate librarians.

Academic Librarians (The University librarians may satisfied with their salary)

Public Librarians.

ย 

Particularly the most of the public librarians are affected by inferiority complex.

The academic librarians have not been getting the right importance from their parent Institution.

The resoruces are being updated because of the close monitoring systemย of AICTE and other agencies.

Otherwise, the libraries will be treated as the old records room.

Presently, the librarian's hands are tied.

ย 

The librarians can do lot of things for the benefit of the users if their hands released.

ย

Yes you are right
I think Ravi Vasistha is right.
thanks for participation
