Library Periods in a Time Table in a CBSE School for Class 1 to 12

[Aasha Kushwaha]

Is there any norms for allotment of periods for library in a CBSE school.

I mean how many periods should be allocated for library classes in a week for class 1 to 12?

You can refer CBSE manual for school library.

It is available in PDF format on CBSE website.

Every class from VI-XII is allotted two library periods per week. The students can use the library, read newspapers and magazines, consult reference books and issue the books during their library periods. The books can be returned to the library at any time. Besides the students may utilise the library during their free time provided no other class is having a library period at that time.

also you can see curriculum of cbse and by law of cbse....

Hi,  It depends on how many sections each class has. In my school we have library periods for class V to X. and each class has five sections each, So we have one library period each per week. XI &XII don't have library periods as such. they can avail the facilities as and when they can or want.

we have 8 periods in a day. in which 1st and last is free. which we make use for open , organising and winding up for the day. 

hope this helps you.
