Authors

Abstract
The advent of Information Technology (IT) has
radically transformed library operations, services, and organizational
structures worldwide. Academic, public and special libraries in India have
implemented automation, digital resources, and network systems to improve
service delivery. This study examines how IT has affected the organizational
structure of libraries in India, focusing on changes in roles, workflows,
departments, and leadership functions. By reviewing literature, analyzing case
studies, and synthesizing Indian research, the paper highlights benefits, challenges,
and strategic shifts in human resource deployment. The findings suggest that IT
has not only redefined technical services but also necessitated managerial
innovations, cross-functional roles, and continuous professional development
among library personnel.
