dc.description.abstract<jats:p>The study aimed to identify various motivational strategies for work productivity and their components on library staff in selected tertiary institutions in Ogun State, Nigeria. The study population comprises all the library staff in five selected University libraries. Total enumeration sampling techniques were used to select a sample of 105 respondents and were collected using a questionnaire. One research question and hypothesis are used with descriptive and inferential statistical tests applied to extract inferences from data. Results revealed that the most challenging task for the managers of a library and information center was to identify the factors which can motivate the library staff. Managers have to understand the behaviour of staff at work as work behaviour is a clear indicator of what their work needs. The results further revealed that library managers made efforts to be satisfied with the various work behaviours of the workers in an organization. It also showed how those behaviours are related to the needs of users they try to satisfy with different motivation strategies in different situations. The study concludes that library staff is proficient in work motivation with a high level of motivation. It also found a significant relationship between motivation and work productivity of library staff. The findings are recommended to library managers and organizations interested in applying motivation strategies and improving workers’ job productivity. </jats:p>
