Dear Library Professionals
The Protocols of Any association Like ILA, IASLIC, and many more are reserved for the professionals who luckily got space where he enjoys heavy salaries, incentives and status, always they expect respect from the side of struggling professionals. These professionals bow their heads before him and they supposed to king of the profession himself. They never want to up liftment of the professionals, If all professionals are uplifted the who will bow heads before him. They never do any thing for others they only like to welcome him in conferences and seminars and and give him mementos and shawls and they quits the stages after giving excuses for their busy schedules.
So it is requested to all professionals unite and make another parallel association who struggles for the unseen library professionals, for their better future.
Sitaron se aage jahan aur bhi hain
Abhi ishq ke imtehan aur bhi hain
kab tak sarkari babuon ke peeche haanth baandh ke chaleinge, apne hanthon ko kholiye aur apni alag association banaiye aur apna alag consortium banaiye apna alag delegate banaiye jo aap ke haq ki larai lare aur aap ki numaindigi kare.
wish u all.

Associations and Professional Societies are powerful forces representing the voice of the
professional community to solve the problems related to the welfare, status, working conditions, physical facilities, education and training including the research and development activities.I think that, all the state level library associations are not effective and not working properly.So all the state library associations should work together under a single banner and the activities should be centralised.
