“…From Figure 1, there are eight antecedents of organizational learning in libraries: leadership (Acadia, 2020; Castiglione, 2006; Chen and Lin, 2008; Evener, 2019; Somerville and Farner, 2012), organizational culture (Acadia, 2020), individual learning (Yang, 2009), team learning (Yang, 2009), intrinsic motivation (Castiglione, 2008), communication (Chen, 2006; Chen and Lin, 2008), institutional evaluation (Chen, 2007; Chen and Lin, 2008) and knowledge management (Figueroa and Bustos González, 2006). With regard to the consequences, there are six: innovation in the library (Fowler, 1998; Lee, 2020), library enhancement (Loo and Dupuis, 2015), knowledge performance (Kassim and Mohd Shoid, 2013; Shoid and Kassim, 2012; Yu and Chen, 2015), knowledge creation (Somerville and Farner, 2012), learning method (Abdullah and Kassim, 2008) and organizational change (Fabbi, 2009).…”

“…Knowledge management goes beyond information management as it implies the integration of information management in important units with new meanings. Knowledge management should be based on what is needed by users, systems or services (Figueroa and Bustos González, 2006). Therefore, knowledge management must start with the identification of information needs and their benefits.…”

“…The process of knowledge management is carried out by finding knowledge then adding, selecting, developing, differentiating and presenting knowledge in such a way that the understanding of one or more areas of interest increases. In this way, knowledge management contributes to organizational learning (Figueroa and Bustos González, 2006).…”

The aim of this study is to determine the developments and factors that affect organizational learning in libraries. The study uses a systematic literature review method by analysing 20 research articles. The results of the study indicate that there are antecedents and consequences of organizational learning in the library. The research offers a comprehensive framework of the antecedents and consequences of organizational learning in libraries. Library managers can use these results to improve organizational learning in their libraries in accordance with the conditions and environment. The results can also be used as material for consideration in making decisions about the application of organizational learning in the library. There are few systematic literature reviews of organizational learning in libraries; hence, this article can be used as an opening for further discussion.

“…1°) A aprendizagem organizacional, por meio de conceitos e práticas, ocupa um papel de destaque nos processos que envolvem a construção do conhecimento nas bibliotecas em todos os níveis: individual, grupal ou equipe e organizacional. Esta relação impacta diretamente na cultura e comportamento organizacional, no estilo da gestão, desempenho do setor e na liderança do contexto (Castiglione, 2006;Evener, 2019;Figueroa & González, 2006;Fowler, 1998;Hallam, Kiskens & Ong, 2014;Sinclair, 2017;Shoid & Kassim, 2012;Yu & Chen, 2015).…”

O objetivo deste artigo é evidenciar, a partir da análise de um fragmento da literatura internacional, as características (objetivos, resultados e limitações) das publicações do tema Aprendizagem Organizacional (AO) e seu uso no contexto das bibliotecas. O estudo é teórico, de caráter exploratório e descritivo, com abordagem quali-quantitativa, realizado com a utilização do instrumento de intervenção Knowledge Development Process-Constructivist - ProKnow-C. Houve a seleção de 16 artigos formando o Portfólio Bibliográfico (PB) final e, após análise bibliométrica e caracterização dos artigos, apresentam-se alguns dos resultados: (I) o PB caracterizou-se por ser cientificamente relevante; sendo dois dos principais motivos: a identificação de autores pertinentes à área e publicações em periódicos de alto fator de impacto; (II) o PB apresentou autores engajados com a temática que, por meio da parceria em pesquisas e a referenciação de autores do PB na construção dos artigos, isso pôde ser confirmado; e (III) com a inexistência de publicações do tema nos anos de 2020 e 2021 e de apenas um artigo em 2019; surge a possibilidade para futuras investigações. Por fim, acredita-se que o PB formado contribuirá como fonte de informação para gestores, líderes e colaboradores das bibliotecas, permitindo a interação com os conceitos e práticas referentes ao tema, bem como a verificação de usabilidade em seus contextos.

“…• Library age relates to the libraries' ability to transform into learning organisations given their inherent traditions, organisational culture, or stable relationships that have been accumulated over time (Sudharatna, 2004;Figueroa & González, 2006). Whilst library age may be a barrier to organisational change with older organisations possibly more restrictive, conversely they may also exhibit greater potential for strategic change having had more experience in dealing with and implementing such change (Su, 2009) The case library directors were contacted two weeks prior to the fieldwork phase to provide information about the research project.…”

Approaches for investigating university libraries as learning organisations

This paper presents research approaches for investigating the development of university libraries into learning organisations, using Thailand as a case study. Whilst the concept of the learning organisation has been in existence since 1970s, it remains problematic. Current debate centres on the lack of an agreed definition of the concept coupled with difficulties in implementing and measuring the extent to which organisations become transformed into learning organisations. These three main strands of debate are examined holistically in the study. Several studies employ a positivist perspective. This research adopts an interpretivist perspective to investigate the issues, given the need to investigate the extent of a shared understanding of the concept within university libraries, together with management practices, problems and a rationale for the development of learning organisations. This is a qualitative study, employing document analysis, semi-structured interviews, and observation. Triangulation was used to corroborate data derived from the multiple methods and increase validity and credibility of the research findings.
