Macapagal Physical Description xi, [53] leaves General Note Undergraguate thesis (B.L.I.S.)--University of the Philippines, Diliman   Vita Summary, Etc. Although it was never established that academic librarians of varying background profiles have different context/content satisfaction levels, it is true that their needs still differ. Their needs do not end in the dimensions mentioned by Herzberg. They must be satisfied on all aspects of their life   Among the preferences, sense of achievement ranked highest in the list followed by job security, sense of recognition, salary and opportunity for advancement   The recommendation is that for supervisors to always motivate their employees into bringing out their fullest potentials possible especially since the field of librarianship is a form of public service   The t test results show that there is no significant difference between the context/content satisfaction ratios between older and younger academic librarians. Also, there is no significant difference in the job context satisfaction average to job context satisfaction average ratio among male and female academic librarians. The third null hypothesis was also retained. There is no significant difference in the context/content ratio between married/widowed and single academic librarians. Fourth, there is no significant difference in the context/content ratios between higher-educated and lower-educated academic librarians. Lastly, that there is no significant difference between the context/content ratios of higher-positioned and lower positioned academic librarians   The two-tailed two sample t test for determining difference between means was used for independent variables age, gender and civil status. While, a one-tailed two sample t test was used for testing educational attainment and job title variation   This study is about the job satisfaction levels among academic librarians in Metro Manila. Job satisfaction was grouped in two categories, job content which are aspects involved directly with work and job context which involves aspects outside of the actual work, extrinsic qualities. The author wanted to find out which aspects academic librarians feel more satisfied. Also, the preference among the nineteen dimensions included in both content and context aspects were ranked. There were five main hypotheses tested Subject Added Entry - Topical Term Librarians--Job satisfaction--Philippines--Manila Metropolitan Area   Libraries--Philippines--Manila Metroplitan Area Location UP DLS LG993.5 2001 L4 M33 Regular Circulation LS-1255TG Textual Physical Form Designator Thesis           Physical Location University of the Philippines Diliman: School of Library and Information Studies LG993.5 2001 L4 M33           Digital Copy Not Available          Add to Book Cart  |   Download MARC
