Besides, 12 human workforce worked in these libraries none of whom was professional in this field. Moreover, the study libraries were matched with the STANDARD of Iran’s ACADEMIC LIBRARIES regarding resources by 8.75%, human workforce by 31%, and space by 54%.Conclusion: The study libraries were not appropriately matched with the STANDARD of Iran’s ACADEMIC LIBRARIES.
