- Only MLIS passouts of 2024, 2025 and 2026 are eligible, even if an older passout has good marks. The notice says “completed” and does not say whether final-year students can apply, so ask the library before you apply.

- The job is on the IIT Tirupati campus in Yerpedu. Campus accommodation is available on payment, but only if rooms are free.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Do not apply if you passed your MLIS before 2024. The notice accepts only 2024, 2025 and 2026 passouts.
- Upload a 10th (Matriculation) certificate that shows your date of birth, as the notice asks.
- Do not ask anyone to put in a word for you. The notice says canvassing in any form means immediate disqualification.
- Do not assume you will be called just because you meet the marks. The institute can choose not to call a candidate.
- Check your email often after applying, because the call for the test comes by email only.
- Submit the form well before 11:59 PM on 25.11.2026, not in the last hour.
