Are the Library Associations in India Playing Their Role Properly?

[Dr. N K Pachauri]

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, in our country National Level Library Associations are not playing their role in a proper manner on various issues like,
1. Non Teaching Cadre of the Community.

2. To improve the conditions of school libraries and school librarians.
3. Enactment of State library legislation.
4. The Growth and Development of Public Library System.
5. To improve the pay scales of AICTE, Medical Colleges, Polytechnic Colleges and status of library professionals.

Please share and communicate your views and suggestions;

I am Agree

In India many Library Associations but they do not play their role properly. Indian Library Association is very old Association but it is only crowd of LIS Professionals. Every year organized Conference but do not rise voice about status of library professionals. Associations should rise the voice regarding implement of the Library Legislation.

Delhi is the Capital of India and there should be passed library legislation and implement also.The all association should think about it.
