Abstract

The aim of this article is to identify the ways in which innovative IDEAs, methods and suggestions are presented in the UNIVERSITY LIBRARIES of FARS Province, as well as to identify the RELATIONal patterns governing the same institutions. Six objectives and 6 research questions were observed. A sample of 110 male and female librarians was selected randomly from the whole population of university librarians in FARS province. Data was collected by means of a survey which was devised for the purpose of this study, the reliability of which was tested by calculation of Cronbach's Alpha and validity was examined using item analysis method. Both aspects proved satisfactory. Descriptive statistics as well as one-sample t-test were used for data analysis. Results of the survey revealed that libraries under study were less welcoming and encouraging innovative IDEAs and suggestions. It was revealed that library managers were also less encouraging the library staff for innovative suggestions. Also, non-participative and top-down bureaucratic patterns of management governed the libraries. Therefore, it seemed that librarians were not willing to be innovative. However, innovative IDEAs would have a positive impact on reduction of library costs and would improve the quality of services, if observed. Also, it seemed that Shiraz Industrial University, Payame-Noor University and Islamic Azad University, with a more dynamic pattern of participative and team-based management, possessed and enjoyed a more innovative structure than the other two.
