that, how many books and printed journals must be procured by the Libraries of professional
institution according to the number of Divisions (1 division=60 students) of the programme.
they have given the formula to find the value of B that is "B=Number of divisions at 1st year
(shift 1+2) + Number of 2nd year direct divisions (shift 1+2)"

If an institution running MBA programme from last 2 years with 120 intake (i.e 2 Divisions)it

division) than the value of B is 2 or 4? as per the given formula.

B=Division
100 titles in a year + 500XB means 500 books
for Journal 12XB=1 Division 12 National Journals to be subscribed.
Then 1 division= 12 journals + 500 books + 100 titles every year addition.
If the Intake is 120 students = 2 division (60+60)
200 titles, 1000 books, 24 journals added every year.

As per AICTE 100 Title and 500 Volume on every 60 Students

It means 500 Divided by 100 = 5 books each Title prerserve/Purchase in Library

100

------- x 5 = 8 books per studetns will get from the Library.
