INTRODUCTION  \nEffective motivation of employees serves a crucial factor in determining the general productivity of workers in any organization. It enhances the wholesome growth and development of the organization. In other words, motivation is an essential factor that enhances general well-being of any organization. According to Chaudhary and Sharma (2012) motivation is the word derived from the word „motive‟ which means needs, desires, wants or drives within the persons. It is the process of inspiring people to actions to achieve the goals. In the work goal background, the psychological factors motivating the people‟s behaviour can be: Job Satisfaction, Achievement, Work environment, Need for Money and Respect. They posit that one of the most important functions of management is to create enthusiasm amongst the employees to execute in the best of their abilities. Therefore the role of a leader is to arouse interest in presentation of employees in their jobs. The process of motivation consists of three stages: first, a felt need; second, an incentive in which needs have to be aroused and third when needs are  \nsatisfied, the satisfaction or achievement of goals. It can be noted here that motivation is an emotional fact that means needs and wants of an employee are tackled by framing an incentive plan.  \nIn the same vein, Ugah (2008) outlined some definitions of motivation to include: “the psychological process”that gives behaviour purpose and direction (Kreitner, 1995) a predisposition to behave in a purposive manner to achieve specific unmet needs (Buford et al., 1995) an internal drive to satisfy an unsatisfied need (Higgins, 1994) and the will to achieve (Bedeian, 1993) . All those inner-striving conditions described as wishes, desires, drives (Donnelly et al., 1995) the way urges, aspirations, drives and needs of human beings direct or control or explain their behaviour (Appleby, 1994) some driving force within an individual by which they attempt to achieve some goal in order to fulfill some needs or expect","cbCaitSz26qM0ArZ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaitSz26qM0ArZ","pdf",552248,17,"English","# ABSTRACT\n# INTRODUCTION","[{\"question\":\"What is the main purpose of the study?\",\"answer\":\"To examine how motivation affects the effectiveness and productivity of librarians in Nigerian public university libraries.\"},{\"question\":\"What research design and sampling method were used?\",\"answer\":\"A correlation survey design was used, and 923 librarians were selected from 1,254 using simple random sampling.\"},{\"question\":\"What were the key findings and conclusion?\",\"answer\":\"Motivation is necessary for enhancing librarians’ job performance, and contrary to general belief, librarians’ motivation levels were high.\"}]","THE ESSENTIALITY OF MOTIVATION ON LIBRARIANS’ PRODUCTIVITY IN NIGERIAN PUBLIC UNIVERSITIES | PDF",1792073089,43]
