Abstract A library is a particular kind of organization. It plays a valuable role and is dedicated mainly to the development and growth of society. Analyzing a library from the perspective of a network of relations and ties, which exist between social and technical network nodes, contributes to a more nuanced assessment of effectiveness. Building on social network analysis and going beyond human relations in a library, this study examines perceptions related to knowledge and skills, resources, and tasks, identified through a survey conducted at the university library in Warsaw. Overall, the analyzed library is characterized by redundancy and congruence of knowledge, resources, and tasks required at the library (organizational) level and at the particular node (employee) level. Analyzing the network efficiency of a library is a new and valuable research design which uses a unique network measurement that should attract more interest in the future. This form of analysis gives managers the tools to dynamize relations and understand the flow, use, and sharing of resources or knowledge within a library context. However, more studies in the public sector would be invaluable in order to formulate new theories or conclusions.

组织网络分析:网络效率视角下的高校图书馆研究

摘要 图书馆是一种特殊的组织。它发挥着宝贵的作用,主要致力于社会的发展和成长。从存在于社会和技术网络节点之间的关系和联系网络的角度分析图书馆,有助于对有效性进行更细致的评估。本研究以社交网络分析为基础,超越图书馆中的人际关系,考察了与知识和技能、资源和任务相关的看法,这些看法是通过在华沙大学图书馆进行的一项调查确定的。总体而言,所分析的图书馆的特点是图书馆(组织)级别和特定节点(员工)级别所需的知识、资源和任务的冗余和一致性。分析图书馆的网络效率是一种新的、有价值的研究设计,它使用了一种独特的网络测量方法,应该会在未来引起更多的兴趣。这种形式的分析为管理者提供了动态化关系和理解图书馆环境中资源或知识的流动、使用和共享的工具。然而,为了形成新的理论或结论,在公共部门进行更多的研究将是无价的。
