Till the last year, Head of School used to procure books for their library at the local level There was no mechanism to ensure standardization of quality books across schools. The present exercise will give an opportunity to select good quality of BookslTitles within the Budget limit The BookslTitles etc. will include Publishers from NCERT, NBT, CBT, PUBLICATION DIVISION, PUNJABI ACADEMY and other reputed Publishers. To ensure the smooth procurement of Books complying with codal formalities, Committees have to be formed at the School level to select Books / Titles out of recommended list at online module (Mega Book Fair 2017 -18) and place before the respective Publishers. In other words these Committees will function as the Committees for procurement of Books for the library at the School level The structure of Committee is given in the Table-2 The respective Committee will come out with the proper minutes regarding Books selected for their record at the school level List of BookslTitles may be seen at Annexure- E.
