Purpose

The study aims to expand the literature on evaluating the performance of professionals and academic libraries, rationalizing management and providing reliable services to the academic community. The performance assessment model covers the four components (management competence, professional experience, financial add/projects and library services) in the context of the knowledge management model.

Design/methodology/approach

Based on quantitative data, the study defines a set of assumptions for testing the four components of performance evaluation within a knowledge management framework to develop appropriate and robust models for improving employee performance and library services. The structural equation model has been applied to sample data from 339 administrative librarians at 190 universities in Pakistan.

Findings

Statistical evidence confirms that the applicability of the proposed performance-based model enhances management competence, makes accurate decisions, develops professional skills and strengthens human resource organization and knowledge management techniques in developing the efficiency of academic libraries.

Practical implications

In the long term, academic leaders and policymakers value investment in the professional development of top library management as they participate in the decision-making process. Organizing training for service employees, supporting innovative research projects and providing library technology infrastructures ultimately improve academic performance and research when integrated into the knowledge management model.

Originality/value

So far, comprehensive literature on performance and knowledge management has been published separately. However, based on the key data collected by senior library administrators using the structured research questionnaire, the comprehensive performance evaluation research based on a knowledge management model is innovative to improve academic library services and close the literature gap.

高校图书馆绩效测量知识管理模型的估计

目的

该研究旨在扩展有关评估专业人士和学术图书馆绩效、合理化管理和为学术界提供可靠服务的文献。绩效评估模型涵盖知识管理模型背景下的四个组成部分（管理能力、专业经验、财务附加/项目和图书馆服务）。

设计/方法/方法

基于定量数据，该研究定义了一组假设，用于在知识管理框架内测试绩效评估的四个组成部分，以开发适当且稳健的模型，以改善员工绩效和图书馆服务。结构方程模型已应用于巴基斯坦 190 所大学的 339 名行政图书馆员的样本数据。

发现

统计证据证实，所提出的基于绩效的模型的适用性提高了管理能力，做出准确的决策，发展专业技能，加强人力资源组织和知识管理技术，以提高高校图书馆的效率。

实际影响

从长远来看，学术领袖和政策制定者在参与决策过程时重视对顶级图书馆管理专业发展的投资。为服务员工组织培训、支持创新研究项目和提供图书馆技术基础设施，最终在与知识管理模型相结合时提高学业成绩和研究。

原创性/价值

到目前为止，关于绩效和知识管理的综合文献已经单独出版。然而，基于高级图书馆管理人员使用结构化研究问卷收集的关键数据，基于知识管理模型的综合绩效评价研究对于提高学术图书馆服务和缩小文献差距具有创新性。
