Abstract

Motivation should always emerge from within in order to make things happen. The real challenge is not just attracting and retaining competent work force, but more importantly handling employee disengagement, cynicism and skepticism by managing expectations both effectively and efficiently. This paper reports on the views and perceptions of 188 University Library Professionals in Karnataka  in respect of their job, job environment and organization in addition to identifying and analyzing the key individual work and organizational characteristics influencing their motivation performance and job satisfaction. This study unfolds major implications for Human Resource Management research and practice in university libraries.
Key words Employee Motivation, Job environment, Job Satisfaction
