dc.description.abstract | Introduction: The Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) is a crucial aspect of the technological advancement era that has transformed libraries through organizational culture. However, most academic libraries, especially in developing countries, still struggle to design and implement a workable organizational culture that aligns with the 4IR era. This study explores how organizational culture can transform libraries in the 4IR era. Methodology: A survey research method was adopted. Questionnaires were administered to 84 available respondents out of a total population of 112 library staff from two selected universities (Abia State University, Uturu, and the Federal University of Agriculture, Umudike). A structured questionnaire was used to gather data directly from the respondents for analysis. Findings: The study revealed that 4IR has enhanced organizational culture, particularly through innovation and excellent performance among librarians. However, several challenges were identified, primarily skills and technical mismatches. Conclusion/Recommendations: The study concluded that embracing the complexities associated with the 4IR era would significantly influence organizational culture traits, fostering innovation, new service operations, and excellent performance in libraries and among librarians. | en_US |
