    Organisations are under tremendous pressure to improve their performance and success in the business world. Work-life balance is an essential ingredient in any organisation and has always been a concern for the quality of working life and its relation to the quality of life. Hence, organisational commitment is one of the influential factors in job success such that its maintenance and strengthening lead to excellence in employees’ performance, career advancement and overall organisational success. This study examined factors influencing librarians' work-life balance and organisational commitment in Kwara State, Nigeria. The target population for the study was practising librarians. A total enumeration technique was used to select 112 respondents, which represent the sample for the study. Data was collected using a self designed questionnaire titled: work-life balance and organisational commitment (WLBOCOL) scale of librarians. The results revealed factors influencing work-life balance and organisational commitment of the respondents. Positive significant relationship exists between work-life balance and organisational commitment of librarians in Kwara State, Nigeria (r = .288, df = 95, p <0.05).Based on the findings, the study recommended that library administrators, and most especially policymakers in the education industry, should give adequate attention to work-life balance to improve the organisational commitment of librarians.
