New Library Policy, Kendriya Vidyalaya Kurnool – Sangam Sreenivasulu, Librarian
FOR

Library Charter
Every Kendriya Vidyalaya will have a library. The objectives of the library is to:
Be the knowledge hub of the school and disseminate knowledge as widely as possible.
- Facilitate creation of new knowledge.
- Facilitate optimal use of knowledge by all staff and students.
- Ensure easy access to the facilities available to all staff and students.
- Encourage and foster reading habit among staff and students.
- Effectively participate in the teaching-learning programmes of the school.
In order to achieve these objectives the library will undertake to:-
Serve as the center of information for the Vidyalaya and provide easy access to national and global knowledge to all staff and students.
- Offer an inviting and attractive physical space with proper seating arrangements and other amenities.
- Ensure that staff and students are treated with courtesy and offered all assistance in their pursuit of knowledge.
- Offer proactive services to all users.
- Optimize its potential to provide access to information and knowledge to all by proper display, categorization/classification of resource materials.
- Help all the users to develop the skills to make optimum use of all the facilities.
- Undertake activities to foster an interest in books and increase involvement in the library.
- Improve the collection and services on a continuing basis in consultation with users/stakeholders.
- Workout a progamme in consultation with teachers for the effective use of all types of library materials.
- To work effectively and efficiently by undertaking every activity in a professional manner.
General guidelines for the library
The library must maintain a well-rounded core collection including reference materials to satisfy the regular needs of the staff and students. The core collection would consist of several copies of textbooks, reference materials related to each subject, costly essential books which would include encyclopedias, maps, atlas, rare books on particular topics/subjects or exclusive editions of general books.
- Besides the core collection other general(fiction and nonfiction) books for regular issue should be available in the library.
- The core collection may be supplemented through networks, e-resources etc to provide better qualitative and quantitative services.
- Library collections are dynamic resources and therefore, there should be constant review and renewal of material to ensure that the collections are relevant to the users/stakeholders.
- Weeding out of books should be a regular feature and should be carried out with the approval of the competent authority, at least once in a year
- Categorizing/classifying and indexing of books should be invariably done keeping in mind the objective of the library.
- The library should follow open access system.
Size of library collection.
The core collection of the library should take into account the size of the Vidyalaya and subjects offered besides covering project based activities, career guidance, counseling etc.
- Books should be available in both English and Hindi.
- Besides the core collection, other general books put together should be at the rate of 5 books per student subject to a minimum of 1500 books for newly opened schools. This collection should be well thought out. Low cost and age relevant editions of classics and fictions should be preferred for the general section of the school library.
- Book purchase should be a continuous process and some percentage of the total Vidyalaya budget should be earmarked for collection development on a recurring basis. Out of this budget, 50% should compulsorily be earmarked for elementary classes (i.e. up to class VIII)
- To encourage more teacher participation in the library, a teacher may be allowed to purchase books (which are not available in the library) up to Rs.500 per year. The cost of the book/books should be reimbursed to the teacher after the books are deposited in the library along with the bill. However, this kind of purchase would be limited to only a certain amount that would be decided by the Library Committee. It must be verified that these are not sample copies provided by publishers.
- During annual stock taking, weeding out of collection should also be carried out.
- For newly opened Vidyalayas a one-time budget would be provided for setting up the basic collection.
- Besides books, libraries should subscribe to useful magazines, periodicals and journals.
Services to be provided by the library.
- Issue of books for home use – Each student would be issued two books at a time for a period of one week. Staff members, including Principal, would be issued maximum five books at a time for a maximum period of one fortnight. Failure to return books on time would compulsorily lead to penalty of Re.1 per day for all (students & staff).
- A recall system for overdue books should be introduced. This could be achieved by sending an overdue note to the concerned student through the Class Teacher. In case of staff the note can be sent through the school office.
- Reissue of books by a user may be allowed maximum twice more after first issue.
- Newly purchased books should not be issued to any user for at least one month but should be displayed separately as new arrivals.
- Issue of subject reference books – Only subject reference books from reference section would be issued for home use on those days when the successive day is a holiday. The book will have to be returned on the next working day. Dictionaries, Encyclopedias etc would not be issued.
- One set of textbooks may be issued to teachers for the subject being taught by them for the whole session.
- In case a user loses a book he/she would have to either replace the book or deposit three times the price of the book in the library.
- Each user would be provided with library cards for issue of books.
- Magazines and periodicals may also be issued for a week only. However, it must be ensured that at least two previous issues are available in the library. A separate register should be maintained for this purpose.
- Reading facilities in the Library – There should be comfortable seating arrangement with proper lighting in the library. The library would be open on all working days and the entire duration of school hours.
- Each section will have two library periods per week. Classes VI to XII will go to the library during this period. For primary classes the teacher supervising the library period will give books from class library to the students. One teacher, who would help in maintaining discipline in the library as well as assist the librarian, will accompany the students of class VI & above to the library. However, the arrangement for library class may differ from school to school depending on the number of sections per class. In very large schools one period of class library can be introduced. Notwithstanding this the number of library periods would be two per section out of which one period will be in the library. The class library period can be utilized for other library related activity also for which the class teacher would be incharge.
- The librarian should also identify two students in each section who would assist in library activities.
- Librarian should facilitate in the use of the library by acting as intermediary between the users and the collection.

speed reading
SPEED READING
One of the best ways to save time is to do speed reading. When you read fast, you can get a rough idea of what material is presented to be read. Remember, speed reading is not an alternative to normal reading, but actually an exercise to make normal reading more effective. How to red faster ? ? ?
The technique of speed reading involves the use of any finger. You need to train your eyes to follow your finger and after that as you increase the speed of your finger. You will be able to read faster. Now keep your finger just below the line you are starting with. Move your finger as you read. Do this for at least 10 minutes and then start increasing the speed of your finger. Measurements of word speeds indicate upto 50% increase in speed. Super students don’t necessarily read at super speeds. But being able to cope up with fast speeds, they can grasp more at slower reading speeds. This makes their reading effective.
