Dear Professionals,

Various time from different points of view a question arise:

Are the Library professional posts technical or Administrative ?

Please reply with justification.

From the broader perspective if we see that the Librarians are involved into the administrative functions of the library. i.e POSTCORB

Planning: the best feature for your library operations, whether the selection of software, lay out etc. 

Organizing: How to well organize the various operations of the lirbrary

Staffing: staffing pattern within your unit. Library assistant, Astt. Librarian, 

Training: Attending training workshop, 

Coordination: with your own staff and the colleagues of your institute. 

Reporting: regular reporting to your Big Bosses about the affairs of the library

Budgeting: preparing the library budget with respect to the Books, e resources. Print Journals, infrastructure development etc. etc. 

Librarian has to ensure that all the operations i.e Technical computerized have to be well taken care off.
