Technostress, a phenomenon that describes stress related to increasing and more sophisticated use of technology in a workplace, has been studied extensively by organizational psychologists in a various workplaces, including academic libraries. Relatively little research has considered the impact of technology induced stress experienced by librarians working in specialized roles, such as digital scholarship. This study uses a mixed-methods approach to examine the level of technostress experienced by librarians working in digital scholarship at Association of Research Libraries institutions. Results of the study indicate that technostress, as measured by a validated technostress instrument, is not a major affliction on this population; however, results point to organizational factors that work to exasperate feelings of role overload and burnout for librarians working in this field. Recommendations for organizational changes to help mitigate these feelings for librarians and library managers are discussed.

Technostress 是一种现象，它描述了与工作场所中越来越多和更复杂地使用技术相关的压力，组织心理学家已经在各种工作场所（包括学术图书馆）进行了广泛的研究。相对较少的研究考虑了技术引起的压力对从事专业角色（例如数字学术）工作的图书馆员的影响。本研究使用混合方法来检查在研究图书馆协会机构从事数字学术工作的图书馆员所经历的技术压力水平。研究结果表明，通过经过验证的技术压力仪器测量的技术压力并不是该人群的主要疾病；然而，结果表明，组织因素会加剧在该领域工作的图书馆员的角色超负荷和倦怠感。讨论了组织变革的建议，以帮助减轻图书馆员和图书馆经理的这些感受。
