- The "Do-It-Yourself" Library Move: Consequences for Staff Interactions and Morale. Moreland, Virginia F. And Others Attitude Change College Libraries Design Requirements Group Unity Higher Education Librarian Attitudes Library Collections Library Facilities Library Personnel Library Planning Morale Surveys A "do-it-yourself" library move may produce significant changes in the established patterns of personnel organization and behavior of the library staff. However, most previously published work on the topic of moving a library collection concentrates on procedural aspects of a move. This study recounts and analyzes the impact of such a move on library staff attitudes and morale. The authors used their direct experience and a post-move survey to determine staff attitudes before and after the move. They determined that such a move can achieve a sense of team building if careful attention is paid to personnel issues, but they could not determine whether this effect was long lasting.
