A person's job performance is the result of their efforts, influenced by their skills, personality, and perceptions of their role. Job performance is the execution of statutory obligations or functions based on the area of expertise of library personnel that are directed toward achieving the library's goals. The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of staff motivation and self-efficacy on the job performance of library personnel in Kwara State, Nigeria. The descriptive survey approach of correlational type was used in this investigation. To cover all the library personnel at the participating public libraries in Kwara State, Nigeria, total enumeration or census survey methodologies were used. Eight objectives are used to steer this investigation. The findings demonstrated a significant correlation between staff motivation and job performance, while self-efficacy and job performance have a significant negative relationship. The authors recommend that library personnel who receive training, particularly training focused on providing them with development chances, may perceive that the organization values them as individuals, which increases their sense of self-worth and, as a result, helps them create stronger job performance.

This paper discussed motivation, some theories of motivation and motivation of library personnel. The most important aspect of any organization is its workforce. Motivation arouses, energizes, influences and sustains behaviour and performance of employees. Motivating factors include extrinsic factors which pertain to the conditions under which a job is performed and intrinsic motivators which contribute to job satisfaction and subsequently increase productivity. Two levels of motivation were identified in the library: the need-factor motivation and the profession-related motivation. Need-factor motivation is well-pronounced in the lower cadre of library staff such as library assistants, clerical staff, and porters who set their priority on economic needs. The profession-related motivation occurs among professionally trained librarians whose motivation hinges self-fulfillment derived from professional growth and development. Other motivating factor in the library is job design which includes job rotation, job enlargement, and job enrichment. Job design specifies the contents or methods of any job in such a way that various requirements of a job can be effectively satisfied. Adequate motivation of library employees lies with the managers because they generally control work distribution, freedom and autonomy, work challenge Remove, staff development and training, and advancement opportunities. The managers are urged to create enabling environment to ensure improved commitment, satisfaction, and productivity of employees in the library.

사서직의 업무변화는 도서관패러다임의 변화와 직결된다. 이러한 변화를 자각하고, 신속히 업무에 반영하는 것은 사서직의 경쟁력과 직결된 문제이다. 본 연구에서는 도서관법과 기준, 담당부서 및 정책, 직무분석을 통하여 1970-80년대의 업무내용과 2000년대의 업무를 비교분석하였다. 결과 사서업무는 관리업무의 최소화, 이용자그룹의 다양화, 세분화에 맞추어 자료구비와 전문적 정보서비스를 마련하고 있다. 나아가 환경변화에 따른 디지털도서관업무의 급증에 대비하여 디지털 자료구비, 보존, 원격접근, 공용에 대한 업무가 증가하고 있다.

Nowadays, the growth rate of organisational politics in the library system is a cause of concern for library and information professionals. This has negatively impacted service delivery, most especially in public uni- versity libraries. This study examined the effect of organisational politics on job impetus among library personnel in selected public universities in South-west Nigeria. Three federal and three state universities were purposively selected such that one university was selected in each of the six states in South-west Nigeria. Total enumeration was used for all 187 library personnel in the six universities investigated. Using a descriptive survey of correlational type, a structured questionnaire was used to elicit information from respondents through survey monkey. Of 187 copies administered, 143, representing 76.5%, were retrieved and used for analysis. The results revealed a high level of organisational politics with low impetus. A strong inverse relationship was established between organisational politics and job impetus among library personnel in selected public universities in South-west Nigeria. Based on these, recommendations were made that Library personnel be encouraged to focus on their job specifications and limit organisational politics adhering to rules and regulations in the library and code of conduct for library staff.

The purpose of the study is to investigate the influence of demographic factors (age and job status), level of ICT skills possessed by respondents and ICT use on task performances of library personnel. The study employed correlation design. Thirteen public universities were purposely selected while total enumeration was adopted to study 248 library personnel made up of librarians and library officers in public university libraries in South-west, Nigeria. Data was collected by questionnaire. The study established significant positive correlation between age, job status, ICT skills and task performance. Also, Anova test found significant joint influence of age, job status, ICT skills and ICT use on task performances of respondents. The study further indicated that age, job status, ICT skills possessed by respondents and ICT use had relative significant influence on task performances of respondents. It is therefore recommended that, library personnel must leverage their demographics positively to bring about positive disposition to their jobs while all categories of staff must ensure they possessed the requisite ICT skills that will ginger ICT use for effective task performance.

본 연구는 장애인 대상 도서관 자원봉사자들의 직무만족에 영향을 주는 요인에 대해서 분석하였다. 이를 위해 국내외 학자들의 선행연구를 중심으로 자원봉사자 직무만족의 영향요인을 종합적으로 고찰한 후 요인들을 추출하였다. 연구결과 개인특성요인 중 결혼여부, 연령, 학력, 봉사활동 참여경로에 따른 직무만족에 차이가 있었으며, 참여동기요인 중 이기적 동기는 직무만족에 영향을 미치고 있으나, 이타적 동기는 직무만족에 영향을 미치지 않았다. 환경요인은 보상모델, 이전 경험, 역할모델 모두 직무만족에 영향을 미치지 않았으며 활동가치인식요인 중 기대합치, 업무적절성이 직무만족과 정적인 것으로 나타났다.

2007 한국도서관연감에 의하면 589개 전문도서관 중에서 162개관이 사서 일인이 도서관 업무를 모두 수행하는 일인 사서 도서관이다. 그러나 전문도서관의 특수성과 다양성으로 인하여 타 관종에 비해 연구가 활발하지 못하고, 효율적 인적자원관리를 위해 실시하는 직무분석도 전무한 실정이다. 본 연구는 일인 사서 전문도서관의 직무내용, 직무 수행빈도와 중요도 난이도에 대한 조사를 통해 현황을 파악하고, 소속 기관 특성과의 연관성을 분석하여 직무 개선을 위한 제언을 하였다.

본 연구는 대학도서관 업무의 수행 형태와 요소의 변화를 시대별(도서관1.0, 도서관2.0, 도서관3.0)로 파악하고자 하는 연구이다. 전술한 목적을 달성하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 대학도서관의 업무를 경영관리, 장서개발 및 관리, 자료조직, 이용서비스, 정보시스템 구축 및 관리의 5개 직무로 구분한 다음 각 직무별 세부 업무에 대하여 도서관 현장의 중견 사서 및 문헌정보학 분야의 교수들을 대상으로 2차례에 걸친 델파이조사를 실시하였다. 연구의 결과, 대학도서관의 업무가 참여, 공유, 개방(도서관2.0 시대)을 넘어서 소셜 네트워크, 시맨틱(도서관3.0 시대)의 개념이 적용되면서 업무의 수행 형태 및 요소에도 많은 변화가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 도서관2.0 시대에서 시작한 모바일, RFID, SNS, NFC 등 신기술의 발전에 따라 도서관3.0 시대에는 이용서비스에 대한 변화가 급격하게 이루어져서 이를 지원하는 도서관 시스템의 지속적인 업그레이드가 필요한 것으로 밝혀졌다.
