Thesis (M.L.I.S.)--Dalhousie University (Canada), 2007.

Organizational change happens for many reasons. For public organizations, the pressures to change are particularly strong, especially because increasingly rapid innovations in information technologies have placed a large burden on organizations with limited resources. Academic libraries (and librarians) experience change like many other public organizations. As technologies change, library services have been changed. This thesis offers observations, based on an analysis of interview and related data, on how academic librarians understand change in their profession. This research has been conducted in the context of environments where user demands and innovations in information technologies are placing continuing pressure on libraries to modify their services. The future of librarianship will not only be directed by the expectations of users and new information technologies; the opinions and views of librarians themselves will also influence the future of the profession. Organizational change is explored in this thesis from the perspective of insiders, librarians themselves.
