Mentality in the Practice of Human Resource Management in State Public Libraries. A Statement of Facts
Abstract:
The study analyses the processes and disfunctions in the activity of state funded or community institutions after the removal of ideology. Public libraries, mainly county libraries are in the centre of interest. The insufficiency of financial resources and inertia in the change of mentality characterises their management in general and human resource management in particular. Human resource departments are still under the badge of "maintaining" instead of "development". The lack of interest in existing human resources and the inadequate method of recruitment have also added to this. The leadership style changed from a dictatorial to a paternalising one and now these mentalities must be surpassed.
