Abstract

The study conducted a survey in five prominent public university libraries in Bangladesh to explore the extent of Human Resource Management (HRM) usually practiced by them. The survey used a combination of structured questionnaire, unstructured interview, and observation methods to examine the nature and type of library human resources, their professional categories, management issues including staff selection and recruitment, salaries and wages, job analysis methods, performance evaluation, audit, and promotion, supporting Human Resource Development (HRD) programmes, etc. The study used a five point Likert scale to rank major problems of HRM in libraries, and also to record staff's opinion on twelve (12) indicators measuring their levels of job satisfaction. Finally, the paper provided future directions for better HRM practices in the common interest of public university libraries in Bangladesh.
