No it is not possible!!! professional assistant is a purely non-teaching post and post of Assistant librarian is the seperate post with uniformed qualification and scale which is equivalent to Ass. Professor. But you qualify NET/SET or PhD as per rules 2009 under the supervion of regular faculty of the same university than you will preference only in your universitly only.

As per UGC guidelines it is not possible, however few professional assistant were promoted in the year 2008 as Assistant Librarian in University of Delhi on the recommendation of Kathpalia committee formed by University of Delhi but as soon as this matter the notice of UGC the Kathpalia committee was scraped and promotion from the post of professional assistant to Assistant Librarian were denied.
