Description

National 2016 Conference, 29 August-2 September 2016 Adelaide: Engage Create Lead
 
This conference presentation (PowerPoint slides) supports the paper which reports on a research project that considered the perceptions, expectations, and behaviors of library employers on job negotiations as both employers and as job seekers.  A survey was used to collect demographic data, including gender, age, position, and type of library respondents work in,  as well as data on respondents’ reasoning of why they did or did not withdraw an offer of employment, their level of comfort in negotiating, and how much flexibility they believe there was for negotiating job offers. The research question was addressed through quantitative analyses of responses to multiple choice questions and qualitative analyses of responses to open ended questions.
