Abstract

This study is to maximize the efficiency of university libraries' human resources management by determining the followings : the relationship between the level of information technology(1T) implement and the job satisfaction of the librarians, the main factors that affect job satisfaction, and how organizational characteristics and individual characteristics affect job satisfaction. Questionnaire was sent to 485 librarians from 27 universities chosen by stratified sampling and the methods of ANOVA, T-test, and correlation analysis were used. The results of the analysis are as follows. 1) there is a significant difference in the level of job satisfaction and the motivation factor according to the level of implementation of IT. 2) There is a relatively high correlation among the participation in decision making, the leadership in implementing the IT, the IT support of the CEO and job satisfaction. 3) There is a significant difference in job satisfaction by the level of computer skills, and a relatively high correlation is shown in the training experience while implementing the IT and job satisfaction.

본 연구는 대학도서관에 도입된 정보기술의 수준과 서서들의 직무만족도는 어떠한 관계가 있으며, 직무만족도의 중심적인 영향을 미치는 용인이 무엇인가를 구명하고, 정보기술도입에 대한 조직특성과 개인특성이 직무만족도에 미치는 영향을 밝혀냄으로써 인적관리 측면에서 대학도서관의 조직관리와 운영의 효율화를 도모하고자 하였다. 자료의 수집은 층화계층표집을 통해 선정된 전국 27개 대학 사서 485명을 대상으로 하였고, 분산분석, T-Test, 상관분석방법이 통계분석에 사용되었다. 분석 결과, 정보기술의 도입수준에 따라 직무만족도와 직무만족요인에는 유의한 차이가 있으며, 정보기술 도입과정의 의사결정 참여도, 의사결정 주도층, 최고경영층의 정보기술 지원도와 직무만족도 사이에는 비교적 강한 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 사서들의 개인별 컴퓨터 능력과 직무만족도는 유의한 치이가 있으며, 정보기술 도입과정에서 이수한 교육 및 훈련 수준과 직무만족도는 비교적 강한 상관관계를 갖는 것으로 밝혀졌다.
