UGC qualified librarian need to work in a salary structure which is less than a UD clerk?

I am jesbira rasheed, Librarian in MAMO college, Mukkom. I am appointed as UGC librarian in last January. Till now I didn't got approval.There are two other persons also who didn't got approval . What the government says is that as our college is E-grade college we have only the vacancy of iv grade librarian. but the librarian should be ugc qualified also. If the situation is like this the ugc qualified library science graduates may have to work with a salary of less that of a UD clerk. :(

Thanks for you reply...

Our college is a E-Grade college.According to the G.O.119/2004 Appendix 3 para there is only iv grade librarians post in an E-Grade college. But in the same G.O Para 12 says that all A grade colleges and other colleges getting UGC grant should have a qualified librarian and must give pay scale and service condition prescribed by UGC. Our college is getting ugc grant for the development of library. In another GO 50/2008 H.Edn Para 5 says that, the librarian who have 8 year experience and completed 4 refresher courses is relaxed from having ugc qualification. And clearly states that it is also applicable to E-grade colleges. The retired hand, to which post I have joined received salary in the UGC scale.In another order 16480/D3/08 also says that those colleges getting UGC grant do not have the post of Librarian grade iv and UGC librarian's post had sanctioned for such colleges.

With thanks& Regards,

Thanks for your reply

hi

There should be a government order(from higher education dept.,kerala) stating that there is a existing grade-1 UGC librarian vacancy in your college.in this case,i think,there are no such government orders.that's why they are not giving approval for your appointment.

you should have checked whether or not grade-1 librarian post is sanctioned in your college before joining.the college authorities advertise it as UGC librarian posts.but in many instances,it will be grade-iv. 

for any queries,do call me at

Dear madam.

What does the advertisement says against which you have been appointed?

is it clearly declares the pay scale?

If not, then I am afraid, that you have to bear with the low salary ..
Kindly confirm about the pay structure of the Librarian post in your college from DHE office.

UGC may release fund for the Library, but Librarian post may not be Sanctioned under A grade..

Thanks for your reply...

The advertisement is like this: Applications are invited from the qualified candidates as per the Government, University and UGC rules for the post of Librarian.The librarian retired from this post received ugc scale from 2004 onward.
