Selected suggestions NACLIN 2011
Major Findings • The training programme is most helpful to the colleagues and gets them up-date with the frequent changes of the technologies of the present era. • The training programme helps to motivate the professionals for better and qualitative performance. • Some colleagues inspired to do some work even which are not formally assigned for the particular staff or Cadres. • This type of programme is to be arranged on the regular and continuous basis and attention is to be given for the participation of all Cadres. • External expert may be invited to make it more attractive among the participants. NACLIN 2011
Recommendations • The library authority should adopt a policy of organizing training workshops of this nature regularly since this is a cost effective way of training library staff on the job as such training outside the university is not usually approved due to financial constraints. • To motivate the library staff it is to be ensured that the scope is to be opened for all levels of professional staff and a record is to be maintained for the promotion and recruitment opportunity of the staff in the higher grade. • Adequate planning which will make provision for adequate number of computers to facilitate the hands on exercise should be done. NACLIN 2011
Conclusion The training and development programme is to be offer to the professionals in a continuing and need based way so that they can easily adjust themselves with the frequent changes of technology. The skills needed to be effective in the new environment are likely to be found in an aggregation of professional talent. Thus when libraries address clear roles, organizational structure, education, and training for Library Human Resources, ICT application in libraries can be successfully achieved. NACLIN 2011
