Should Libraries call for Tenders?

Library acquisition is an important activity. Of late procurement procedures are questioned inspite of the guidelines available in General Financial Rules. Is good office committee (GOC) alive? Is there considerable representation from Govt officials (LIS) in GOC ? Your exeperience and suggestions are highly welcome and appreciated

yes to make pulishers to work on healthy guidelines . The role of library the amount of work involved in acquisition needs. Some places this being done once in a year/years to provide guidelines to the publishers on terms and conditions.

As per my experience, tenders are not called for library books. As per Govt. of India notification books are store items. it is on record. We should avoid from this practice. thanks

reference my earlier reply to this discussion, please read as library books are not store items instead of library books are store items.
