Title: The role and contribution of strategies and factors in the career successes of public library directors

Abstract: This study examines the career development factors and strategies used by public library directors whose library systems service a population of 100,000 or more. The intent is to research the directors' own use of these factors and strategies, their perceived importance to the directors' career development and finally strategies recommended by the directors for use by middle level public library managers.

This study addresses all three areas and produces a comparison of factor/strategy use vs. importance vs. suggested use. An integral part of this research includes tables showing the significance of relationships among the selected strategies as well as among the external factors of age, gender, geographic mobility and luck/serendipity. Independently recommended strategies are also provided by the directors for potential adoption by the middle-level manager. As such, the findings of this study may be used as a possible reference point to assist public library middle level managers in their own successful career development.
