ABSTRACT
This study discusses the influences of gender on
managerial efficiency of academic librarians in Nigeria.
The rationale for the study was to investigate if gender
grouping has an influence on the managerial
competence of librarians in Nigeria. The total
enumeration sampling technique with a questionnaire
instrument was used to collect data from 105
respondents and 89 questionnaires were found usable
for the data analysis. The questionnaire was analyzed
using SPSS.
The study revealed that there were more male
than female librarians in the libraries used for the
study while there were more academically qualified
female librarians. Despite this, there were more male
heads of unit and those in decision-making positions
than their female counterparts. The study discovered
that gender was not a factor used in getting to decisionmaking
positions in Nigerian libraries rather
qualifications and paper publications were used as
determinants for getting into positions.
The paper also provides the justifications for the
education of females in Nigeria and that the
government should educate parents and guardians
