Abstract
An account is presented of the struggle for academic status by university librarians in Tanzania. The literature on the academic status of university libraries in Africa is reviewed. The arguments for, and benefits, of, academic status to both librarians and users are discussed in relation to the general African and specifically Tanzanian situation. An assessment is made of the challenges and prospects for the realisation and consolidation of academic status.
