Questions and instructions

Interviewer instructions

The amount of expenditure on books should be estimated on the basis of expected requirements during the
current academic year. Books will include textbooks, reference books, journals, periodicals etc. required for
the purpose of the study. If a same book is used for more than one course, currently the member is
undergoing, then the expenditure on it should be taken only once with highest priority to the basic course and
then to the second course. Books are usually purchased at the beginning of the session. With a little bit of
probing such as how much was purchased at the beginning of the session, how much was purchased
subsequently and how much more would be required for the remaining part of the session, a fairly accurate
figure of total expenditure on this item can be obtained.
