Why Library Science should not be included in the ITI?

Why our subject Library & Information science should not be included with ITI like fitter, mechanic, electrician, wireman course? Even there is no use in studying upto Ph.D in Lib. Sc. The qualification for ITI is 8th std pass or fail. So why not our subject called as library technician course and merged with ITI and basic qualification to enter is 8th standard pass or fail?

I never agree with this. Mr.Manic we are library professionals but ITI is not professionals

Mr Babu

I agree your words...ITI is not professionals but they are demanded everywhere and can earn as per their work but librarians not demanded everywhere and getting more torture and most insulted than others.

I suppose Librarians are underpaid. Nowadays minimum qualification of librarian is M.Lib. And that too they r recruited on ad hoc basis with Rs. 5000/- or 10,000/-. Such a meagre amount compared to today's life.

Also, the masters in different disciplines of science working as researchers or scientist are paid better.

Dear MANIC PERUMAL

Advise is alike a medicine...to be given to those who are needy. Here it is not required kindly keep your suggestions with you. If you are really have some interest in this profession please come with new idea (POSITIVE IDEA) we will welcome you.

Dear Sir, Dr. Barman

Please don't approve this type of post, which has no logic nor in helpful in creating any positive environment. Now it assume that this website has become an ADDA of mob, not of professional of Library Science. Please don't mind.

Take a necessary action in future

It may be ITI can Include in Lib. Sc subject in course. but It is use full for Library Attendant post not eligible for Library Professional .

 mr manic..earlier job oriented course for 2 years was started by vocational  board..but after finishing that course also there were very few job opportunities. we are having diploma in lib sc, Blisc, Mlisc and phd also then i dont  feel any ITI is require to create more unemployment among librarian professional
