Re-designation of the Post of Librarian: A Survey

[Dr. N K Pachauri]

The status of librarian has been a controversial topic in the academic circle of our country. The designation of the post of "Librarian" should be reviewed in the present ICT Scenario. Other departments used to review and change the designation of various posts from time to time as per the need and demand on the basis of work, responsibility, nature of work, status, cadre etc. I think that we are not meeting the demand of the time and we are still behind the time.

Person working any where is librarian whether it is a public library, school library, college library, university library, special library, research institution, e-library and so on. All the designations are "librarian and librarian".
The survey is being conducted to know the opinion of the library professionals/ teachers/students/ research scholars regarding changes in nomenclature of the "Librarian Post" at various levels i.e. schools, collages, University and Public Libraries.
