Pages

  143-161

Abstract

 Purpose: The present study aims to investigate the academic librarians’ cognitive, affective, and the behavioral attitudes to the ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE in the library.Methodology: The current research is conducted using survey method. The Attitude toward change questionnaire which was developed and validated by Dunham and his collaborators was utilized for data gathering. The population of this study comprised of 52 librarians from different departments of the libraries of Shiraz University. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS software. A series of descriptive and inferential statistics like mean and standard deviation, one way analysis of variance, independent sample t-test, and paired sample t-test were employed for the data analysis.Findings: The results of the study show that the behavioral attitude of the librarians to the ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE is more positive than their cognitive and affective attitudes. However, the overall attitude of the studied librarians toward the ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE in the libraries was moderate. Moreover, the librarians’ gender and their educational level were found to be correlates of cognitive attitude toward the ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE. In other words, women and librarians who have earned the bachelor or higher degree were found to have more positive attitude toward the ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE in cognitive dimension. Conversely, no associations were found among librarians’ age and work experience and their behavioral, cognitive, and affective attitudes toward the ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE. Studied librarians were reported to have moderate behavioral, cognitive, and affective attitudes toward the ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE in their work environment. The chance of success in the implementation of ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGEs would be enhanced by improving positive attitudes toward change, readiness, and the receptivity to change.
