We charged Rs. 8 per book for classifying, labeling in a private college. And charged actuals for transport and for a helper.

Thanks mam for Ur reply .

But do you have the info. about payment in govt. College library.

Dear Ms. Sheetal Sharma,

Thanks for your post.

As far as I know, there is no fixed rates for such jobs.

To avoid controversies/audit queries, you can do two things

1. Ask for price rates and prepare a comparative statement and place order thereafter

2. Enquire from other College Libraries about the rates they are working with. Get WRITTEN & SIGNED  reply to your queries. Order to them on the basis of the certificate.

This way, you can keep your hands clean!

Sincerely, 

Siddhartha S. Ray, Calcutta

Dear Madam,

I would like to suggest, "appoint a passed-out student, very good in classification and cataloguing for 3 or 6 months on a temporary profile(if possible offer a job) and let your job done. I know fresh MLIS students are very good classification like a senior professional. 


...because the rate of such kind of jobs can't be identified easily, which could lead lots of questions and controversies at the later stage. 

Thank you.
