dc.description.abstract | The study examined productivity, profitability and entrepreneurial skills needed in setting up and maintaining Library and Information Science firm in Abuja, Nigeria. The research design used for the study is survey. Purposive (judgmental) random sampling technique was used to select the sampled respondents through unequal quota system across five (5) different Municipal Area councils of Federal Capital Territory (FCT) namely: Kubwa, Gwagwalada, Dutse, Mpape and Bwari. A self constructed instrument tagged Productivity, Profitability and Entrepreneurial Skills (PPES) which was validated at r=0.88 was administered to 100 respondents in the sampled Municipal Area Councils. A non-parametric statistical T-test and analysis of variance (ANOVA) were used to analyse the collected data which were presented in form of tables, percentages and frequency counts. Out of the 100 copies of the instruments administered 86 were received and used for the analysis. The findings of the study revealed the following amongst others. An array of entrepreneurial activities that productive librarians and information science professionals could engage in; a plethora of entrepreneurial skills and the problems that constitute stumbling blocks to successful entrepreneurial activities were presented. It is recommended that the curriculum of library schools in Nigeria should be reviewed for maximum employability; and that the government at all levels in Nigeria should provide enabling environment for entrepreneurial activities to thrive. | en_US |
