dc.description.abstractThe rapid evolution of disruptive technologies has significantly impacted academic libraries worldwide, including those in Nigeria. This paper critically examines how effective change management acts as the key enabler for Nigerian academic libraries to harness disruptive technologies successfully. Through a literature and documentary review, the paper identifies trends, barriers, and the change management models most relevant to this context, specifically the Lewin, Kotter, and ADKAR models. The central argument highlights that robust change management strategies—not just technology adoption—are essential for sustaining positive transformation. Conclusions and recommendations emphasize regular staff training and sustained stakeholder funding as critical supports for continuous, successful change
