abstract:

This article discusses a specific subset of results from an exploratory survey deployed in September 2021. Quantitative and qualitative results of this exploratory survey were considerable, and as such, this article focuses on question responses related to library workers' perceptions of themselves and others during times of change and views of their place in academic librarianship now and in the future. Overall, survey respondents demonstrated a high level of self-confidence and personal agency as library workers, but also illustrated consistent themes of demoralization, with respondents sometimes or often considering leaving their current roles (78 percent) or the profession entirely (60 percent).

摘要：

本文讨论了 2021 年 9 月部署的一项探索性调查的特定结果子集。这项探索性调查的定量和定性结果相当可观，因此，本文重点关注与图书馆工作人员在特定时期对自己和他人的看法相关的问题回答变化及其在现在和未来学术图书馆工作中的地位的看法。总体而言，调查受访者表现出作为图书馆工作人员的高度自信和个人能动性，但也表现出了一致的士气低落的主题，受访者有时或经常考虑离开目前的职位（78％）或完全离开该职业（60％）。
