No. Its a Group 'A' post (6000 GP (academic) or 5400 GP (non academic) ). If in some institution it has GP of 4200 or 4600 it fall under Group 'B' category.

Thanks

Dear Sri Vishnu K. Gupta

Thanks for your post. As I know, the Scales of Asst Librarians & Asst. Professors under UGC, fall in the Scale Rs.5600- 39100 with Grade Pay of Rs. 6000/-  and they are Group A posts.

In Central Govt. Organizations, as per the D.P. Chattopadhyaya Commission's Report effective from 5th. CPC there is no designation as Assistant Librarian. There is the designation of Asst. Library & Information Officer  which had the Pay Scale of 6500-10500 during the 5CPC. That was a Group B post.And as per the 6CPC any grade Pay lesser than Rs. 5400/- is not Group A post.  

So you can judge by yourself on the basis of Grade Pay, in which cadre the post belongs.

Sincerely,

Siddhartha S. Ray

Sir, Thanks for candid reply. But
there may be changes in 7CPC in revised pay scales and grade pay. Because From 1 Jan. 2016, both salary structure and selection pattern are changing. Then everything will be according to new system.

Dear Sri Gupta,

Thanks and you are absolutely right.

However, the CPCs can not change (read downgrade) an individual cadre.

For instance during Pre 1986, the entry post in Group A was 700-1300 which became 2200-4000 in the 4th.CPC and to 8000-13500 on the 5th. CPC and 15600-39000 +GP 5400 in the 6th. CPC. So certainly the scale will be different in the 7CPC but the Cadre can not be downgraded.

 Sincerely 

Siddhartha S. Ray

We follow rule & regulation ugc for appointment, promotion and retirement which already publish under the title " UGC rule & regulation ugc for appointment, promotion and retirement 2010" but yes Group B, C and D posts in central government is application from library attandant to senior library professionals in the universities.

Dear Dr. Dandgawal,

Thanks for your reply but unfortunately I could not make out what you have meant by the sentence Group B, C and D posts in central government is application from library attandant to senior library professionals in the universities.

I shall appreciate if you please explain it.

Sincerely,

Siddhartha S. Ray

Dear Siddhartha S. Ray,

                                   College Librarian and Ass. librarian of universities are other academic post as per UGC (Some state has given status of teacher). So they have UGC rules applicable. But Library Attandant to Senior Library Professionals although they working in unversities they have state govenment rules and regulation of particular state. When the central govt. announce any pay commission. they are getting these people are same scale from that state government. But UGC deceide scale and qualification of Teachers and others acedemic staff (registrars, uni. librarian, college librarian, uni. asst. librarian.). There is catagories like A, B, C & D in teacher. But UGC Asst. Prof. Asso. Prof., Prof etc. 

Respected Sir,

                      I cleared my Net last year december 2014. Now I am applying post of assistant librarian/librarian in college. Any age limit is there? What type of institutes I can apply? Plz guide me. 

I think if you are in service(givt.aided) there is no age limit. In degree college age limit upto 45.
