The starting salary of a librarian in India is between INR 2.5 to INR 4.5 LPA. Entry-level positions mostly open up in small public libraries, schools, or private institutions which is approximately INR 2.5 LPA, whereas if you qualify for a master’s degree, you can grab positions in larger universities, colleges, and government institutions.
M.Lib.Sc graduates and experience in digital and information management can bag higher salary, especially in specialised or senior roles.
