x, 109 leaves. / The objectives of the study were: 1) to investigate the extent to which workers in library and information services in KwaZulu-Natal are members of LIASA; and 2) if there are substantial numbers of LIS workers who are not currently members, then what are the possible reasons for this? The study surveyed three types of library services in KwaZulu-Natal, namely, academic, public and special libraries with 330 LIS workers participating in the study. A census was done of LIS workers in special libraries and in academic libraries of public higher education institutions in KZN. Simple random sampling was used in selecting public libraries in KZN for participation in the study. All staff in the selected sample of public libraries were surveyed. The research instrument used was a self-administered questionnaire. It was established that a significant number of LIS workers in all three types of libraries surveyed in KZN are currently not members of LIASA for various reasons. LIASA has been unable to draw significant membership from the support staff category in LIS services despite its constitution claiming to embrace all LIS workers. The study recommends that LIASA market itself more aggressively to increase membership levels particularly in the public library sector and among support staff in all LIS services. It also recommends that LIASA should consider involving itself in the industrial concerns of the LIS sector.

Mentorskap as metode van menslikehulpbronontwikkeling : met spesiale verwysing na die toepassing daarvan binne die Nasionale Biblioteek van Suid-AfrikaBotha, Deonie Francesca 06 1900 (has links)
Text in Afrikaans / Summary in Afrikaans and English / Die Nasionale Biblioteek van Suid-Afrika ervaar 'n behoefte aan 'n metode van
menslikehulpbronontwikkeling waarvolgens die vaardighede van werknemers ontwikkel kan word sodat
die organisasie kan aanpas by plaaslike en globale veranderinge.
Gestruktureerde mentorskap is vervolgens geidentifiseer as 'n geskikte metode om in die bestaande
behoefte te voorsien, aangesien mentorskap se loopbaan- en psigo-sosiale funksies die ontwikkeling van
die professionele en persoonlike vaardighede van die werknemer moontlik maak. Daarby is mentorskap
nie net voordelig vir die betrokkenes nie, maar dit hou ook besliste voordele in vir die organisasie en die
sektor waarbinne die organisasie werksaam is.
Die suksesvolle toepassing van gestruktureerde mentorskap is egter daaraan onderhewig dat die
kontekstuele omgewing waarbinne dit toegepas gaan word, geskik moet wees, en werknemers moet
bereid wees om betrokke te raak by so 'n program.
'n Konseptuele raamwerk vir die bestudering van mentorskap soos opgestel deur David Marshall Hunt en
Carol Michael is derhalwe aangepas om die verskynsel "mentorskap" deur middel van 'n verkennende
literatuuroorsig te bestudeer.
Die bevindinge van die literatuuroorsig word ondersteun deur 'n empiriese ondersoek van die geskiktheid
van die Nasionale Biblioteek van Suid-Afrika as kontekstuele omgewing vir die toepassing van
mentorskap en die bereidwilligheid van die werknemers van hierdie biblioteekorganisasie om betrokke te
raak by die mentorskapproses. Die data wat ingesamel is, word ontleed en die gevolgtrekkings wat
gemaak word oor bogenoemde twee vereistes vir die suksesvolle toepassing van mentorskap word
uiteengesit.
Die studie word afgesluit deur aanbevelings wat gemaak word oor aspekte van die toepassing van
mentorskap wat verdere navorsing regverdig, maar wat nie binne die bestek van hierdie studie na behore
aangespreek kon word nie. / Structured mentoring was identified as a method to develop the professional and personal skills of the
employees of the National Library of South Africa in order to adjust to local and global changes.
A conceptual framework for the study of mentoring, as developed by Hunt and Michael, was therefore
critically adapted in order to investigate fully the phenomenon of "mentoring" by means of an exploratory
literature review. The findings of the literature review are supported by an empirical survey to test the
suitability of the National Library of South Africa as contextual environment for the application of
mentoring, as well as the willingness of its employees to participate in mentoring. This culminated in an
analysis and interpretation of the findings and formulation of conclusions regarding the two abovementioned
requirements for the successful application of mentoring.
The study ends with recommendations for further investigation into aspects of mentoring which could not
be covered in this study. / Information Science / M. Inf.
