بررسي ميزان رضايت شغلي مديران كتابخانه ‌هاي عمومي وابسته به نهاد كتابخانه ‌هاي عمومي كشور در مراكز استان ‌ها

A Survey on Level of Occupational Satisfaction among Managers of Iran Public Libraries Foundation in Centers of Provinces

هدف: تعيين ميزان رضايت شغلي مديران در كتابخانه هاي عمومي وابسته به نهاد كتابخانه هاي عمومي كشور در مراكز استان ها مي‌باشد. روش: روش پژوهش، پيمايشي و ابزار مورد استفاده، پرسشنامه محقق ساخته و جامعه آماري، همه مديران كتابخانه هاي عمومي در مراكز استان ‎ها به تعداد 189 نفر است. يافته‌ها: بر اساس يافته ‎هاي پژوهش، ميانگين رضايت شغلي مديران كتابخانه هاي عمومي 54/81 (حد مطلوب- 135) است. اما با توجه به اينكه متوسط ميانگين رضايت شغلي در اين پژوهش 81 مي‎باشد، رضايت شغلي مديران مورد مطالعه از حد متوسط اندكي بالاتر است. ميانگين رضايت شغلي در ابعاد امكانات مادي و رفاهي شغل با ميانگين 47/8 (متوسط ميانگين- 12)، خودشكوفايي با ميانگين 80/14 (متوسط ميانگين- 18) و ماهيت شغلي با ميانگين 94/20 (متوسط ميانگين- 21) پايين‎تر از حد متوسط، و ميانگين رضايت شغلي در ابعاد رفتار مديران ارشد با ميانگين 41/15 (متوسط ميانگين-12)، روابط متقابل با ميانگين 55/11 (متوسط ميانگين=9) و ثبات شغلي با ميانگين 44/9 (متوسط ميانگين- 9) بالاتر از حد متوسط است. فرضيه 1 مبني بر اين كه رضايت شغلي مديران از بُعد امكانات مادي و رفاهي شغل به نحو معني‎داري كمتر از ابعاد ديگر است، تاييد شد اما فرضيه 2 مبني بر وجود تفاوت معني‎دار بين ميانگين رضايت شغلي كتابداران بر حسب رشته تحصيلي مورد تاييد قرار نگرفت. اصالت/ارزش: اين پژوهش براي آگاهي از رضايت شغلي مديران در كتابخانه هاي عمومي است، همچنين مسايل اساسي را در رشته كتابداري و اطلاع رساني مطرح مي كند كه نياز به پژوهش هاي عميق تر را مي طلبد.

Methodology: The methodology of this research is of survey type and a questionnaire made by the researchers was used. The population under study included all managers of Iran Public Libraries Foundation in center of provinces, i.e. 189 individuals.
