Abstract

Environmental changes such as the evolving needs of society, advancements in technologies, and shifting learning paradigms have impacted the way academic libraries operate. Academic libraries must respond to environmental changes by acquiring new capabilities. Using the strategic management concept of dynamic capabilities, this study investigates the relationship between the dynamic capabilities of an academic library and its overall performance. This study uses the structural equation modelling (SEM) technique and develops a new model, the DCAL model, for academic libraries to build these new capabilities. The analysis of the DCAL model indicates a positive and significant relationship between the three core capabilities, searching, seizing, and transforming, and the overall performance of the academic library. This study also identifies activities, scouting for new technologies that can be adapted by academic libraries, piloting projects, analysing large amounts of data, balancing routine work with innovative work, and the need for academic librarians to build capabilities to perform those activities to succeed in their future roles.

学术图书馆动态能力的测量模型（DCAL）

社会需求的演变、技术的进步和学习模式的转变等环境变化影响了学术图书馆的运作方式。高校图书馆必须通过获取新的能力来应对环境变化。运用动态能力的战略管理概念，研究了高校图书馆的动态能力与其整体绩效之间的关系。本研究使用结构方程建模（SEM）技术，为学术图书馆建立这些新能力开发了一个新的模型，即DCAL模型。对DCAL模型的分析表明，高校图书馆的三大核心能力，即搜索、获取和转化能力，与高校图书馆的整体绩效之间存在着积极而显著的关系。这项研究还确定了一些活动，探索学术图书馆可以适应的新技术，试点项目，分析大量数据，平衡日常工作与创新工作，以及学术图书馆员需要建立能力来执行这些活动，以成功地履行其未来的职责。
