Retirement age of Librarians

It is very sorry to see the notification of MHRD that the retireemnt age of Librarians has not been raised to 65 on par with other teachers. The reason for non raising the age is a silly one. If the reason is a true one why the librarian post in most of the university libraries are kept vacant and unfilled. If sufficient number of qualified persons are available why for so many years the posts are kept unfilled. It is a highly condemnable one.

Treat Librarians as Teachers

Some of the senior Professors in Library and Informaton science like Prof.Lahari, Prof. Mangala who are the members in the UGC expert cimmittee feel that the Change of designation as Lecturer for the College/ University librarians is not a necessary one as the terminology LIBRARIAN is universally accepted one. My question is that is it an acceptable one? Who are they to decide it. Only the Practicing Librarians can understand the difficulties and problems of the librarians working in academic institutions
