Why is Career advancement scheme (CAS) denied to Deputy Librarians as per UGC... and What Information professionals can do ??
I would like your valuable ideas and suggestions...
If there is CAS for Teaching -as Asst Prof , Assoc Prof, and Professors and (head of the department) is on Rotation why can't we have something like:
Asst librarian , Assoc librarian, Librarian and Head Librarian or (Library Director) on Rotation as per head of department. (library is also a department)
OR
Asst Prof (Library and information services), Assoc Prof (LIS) and Prof (LIS) Head Prof (LIS)-tenural
OR
Asst Director (LIS), Assoc Director (LIS) and Director LIS
1.Why should CAS be denied to Deputy librarians having same qualifications, pulications and other work experience which the Assoc professors have it . Is this not academic an descrimination. ?? What can we do collectively to remove this anomaly.
2. As information management is not limited to library only, why cann't the word"Librarian" in the designations be made more open and wider ...perhaps "information Specialist"/ information management specialist, after all we are information specialist. Such wider designations are already being used in United Nations........Time to think and Change our MINDSETS?????

Respected madam,
I am totally agree with your opinion
We must do collectively to remove this anomalyโฆ.
but for that we should have some privileges, authorities doing this precious work with quick action.
Secondly ruling human being or community should have knowledge in field of library science. Otherwise it is
illiterate human being ruling like minister of education..!

Thanks for your responce Mr Singarkar.........
I would like to bring to your knowlegde that UGC already has advisors from Library and information sciences, unfortunatly the question is, wether right advises are being Herd,...its not being herd, because some of the advisors or decission makers have extra knowledge of LIS with closed minds... the problem is in the mindset....(not willing to change) Also in this country better decissions are being taken by the supream court, wether is rottening food grains or reservation system.... perhaps there hope in this direction... what do you think.??
