Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Satisfaction among librarians both male/female has been engaging the attention of several researchers by conducting various surveys and studies. It is believed that satisfactory functioning of library and information services depends to a large extent on adequate, able, and motivated staff. This book in eight chapters is an empirical investigation using statistical methods to study the job satisfaction level of the working women librarians of India. To measure the level of job satisfaction of women library professionals working in university and college libraries it takes into account all the off-the-job and on-the-job factors that affect the job satisfaction in women workers. It finds out that for job satisfaction a woman worker has to maintain a healthy and firm balance between her work and home. For this she needs co-operation of her colleagues and seniors as well. Though financial or monetary factors do not matter much but she feels satisfied and interested in the job if she gains respect from the family and admiration from colleagues. This unique work in the LIS field in India will help the fair sex and guide the administrators to get the best from the female staff. The findings of this investigation will enable library managers to know the areas of feelings of satisfaction and dissatisfaction among women library professionals. These findings will hopefully yield a better understanding of the problems of women professionals and help the managers in future to make apt decision for the proper growth of the organisation they work for.
