Binghamton University Libraries has had a challenging decade, facing both a declining number of staff and a stagnant budget, which has made replacing the lost staff difficult. One of the larger issues that has arisen is finding internal candidates to fill management positions in the Libraries as employees retire. This project set out to answer two questions:

In order to answer these questions, a review of literature in job satisfaction, and leadership and organizational change was completed. The Binghamton University Library staff was surveyed, and the results were analyzed with descriptive, thematic and cross-tabular analysis. What was discovered is that there is an interest in leadership in the Binghamton University Libraries, but much of the opportunity and focus is given to newer staff; and many staff were not even aware such opportunities were available to them. |
