Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the impact of digital literacy skills on job performance among librarians at Kaduna State University Library, Nigeria. Specifically, it sought to determine if there is a significant relationship between digital literacy skills and the job performance of library personnel. The study employed a survey design with a population of 41 academic librarians, using total enumeration sampling. Data was collected through a self-constructed, validated questionnaire and analyzed using frequency tables and mean scores. Hypotheses were tested using the Pearson correlation in SPSS v23. The findings indicated a significant positive relationship between digital literacy skills and job performance among librarians. The study concluded that librarians who apply new technologies demonstrate proficiency in information dissemination and retrieval. It also recommended that librarians should acquire basic digital skills to enhance job effectiveness, with management support through incentives and training opportunities.\r\n\r\n
