que pensam os Servidores Públicos da Universidade Estadual do Ceará a Respeito do Serviço Público
Authors: Granja Danilo Barbosa , Silva Emanuel Freitas da
Published: November 2024

Trata-se da apresentação acerca das ideias que servidores públicos da Universidade Estadual do Ceará possuem sobre o serviço público e como estas interferem no cotidiano dos exercícios profissionais. Estabeleceu-se como objetivo principal: identificar a ideia de serviço público por parte de servidores de uma universidade estadual. Foi aplicado roteiro semiestruturado por meio de entrevista. Participaram da pesquisa 10 servidores. O serviço público foi percebido como ação voltada para coletividade que precisa ter qualidade, cujo reflexo envolve como o servidor executa as próprias ações. Ademais, dentro do serviço público, há desafios relacionados a vencimentos, infraestrutura e acomodação dos servidores, além de paradigmas antigos de clientelismo e patrimonialismo. O serviço público encara a burocratização de duas formas, na ótica dos entrevistados: organização e padronização, ao mesmo tempo, tornam-se impasse na resolução de problemas. Na universidade, enquanto se ofertam cursos de qualificação, os entrevistados demonstraram sentir que não havia programas de incentivo à capacitação e reconhecimento dos trabalhos, concomitante, viviam a dualidade no acreditar que se qualificar implicará oportunidades, meritocracia, mas não crescimento dentro do serviço público.

Published: November 2024

O presente artigo é um recorte da minha dissertação do mestrado intitulada: A lei de extinção das comarcas judiciais no Ceará: o caso do município de Paramoti, contanto, realizamos alguns apontamentos para fins de analisar a nova lei de organização judiciária do estado do Ceará à luz da Participação e da Cidadania com foco no acesso à justiça das populações interioranas. A respectiva lei dispõe sobre a organização judiciária do Estado do Ceará, compreendendo a estrutura e o funcionamento do Poder Judiciário e de seus serviços auxiliares. Com o nome impopular de “lei de extinção das comarcas”, possuía como principal enfoque a extinção das comarcas de municípios menores, sendo, a responsabilidade pelo acesso à justiça dessas populações, absolvidas por municípios de médio ou grande porte. À partir desses dados iniciais, é importante fazermos uma análise da emancipação dos cidadãos, como sujeitos dotados de consciência participativa nos rumos da sociedade, buscando alguns conceitos modernos de autores conceituados sobre o assunto, situando as populações interioranas, sendo estes entendidos como os reais impactados pela implementação desta nova lei no estado do Ceará. Portanto, daremos enfoque, no presente artigo, do viés da participação e oitiva desses sujeitos no município de Paramoti.

Cognitive and behavioral job satisfaction as correlates of job performance of librarians in universities in South-East, Nigeria
Authors: Nwankwo Ndidi Grace , Ifeka E. Okeke
Published: November 2024

The study employed a correlational research design to examine the relationship between different dimensions of job satisfaction and job performance among librarians in federal universities across five states in South-East, Nigeria: Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu, and Imo. The entire 153 librarians in federal universities in South-East constituted population of the study. Data were gathered through questionnaires and achievement tests. Questionnaires were validated by three experts, and reliability test was conducted using Cronbach's alpha, yielding coefficients of 0.934 for Affective Job Satisfaction, 0.917 for Cognitive Job Satisfaction, and 0.907 for Behavioral Job Satisfaction. Data collection was conducted face-to-face, which allowed for the application of both descriptive and inferential statistical methods in the analysis. Results indicated a high and positive relationship between all dimensions of job satisfaction including affective, cognitive, and behavioral job performance. The study concluded that enhancing librarians' job satisfaction across these dimensions significantly boosts their job performance. Based on these findings, recommendations were offered. These involve improving emotional support and recognition to boost affective satisfaction, investing in professional development and clear role definitions for cognitive satisfaction, and involving librarians in decision-making and promoting work-life balance to enhance behavioral satisfaction. These measures are suggested to foster a supportive work environment that enhances both job satisfaction and performance among academic librarians

Authors: Njoku Ngozi I.
Published: November 2024

The purpose of this study was to investigate the security threats to information resources in the university libraries in Southeastern Nigeria. The descriptive survey design was adopted for this study using questionnaire with rating, unstructured interviews and observation technique for data collection. The study was carried out in eleven university libraries in Southeastern Nigeria. A census population involving 248 respondents drawn from population of 345 librarians was used. Data were analyzed using the mean, standard deviation and a T-test. Results reveal that items 1, 2 and 3 have criterion above 2.5, which indicates that theft, mutilation and hiding/ mis-shelving of reading materials were the most serious security threats to information resources in the university libraries and that, items 7, 8 and 10 have criterion below 2.5, which also signifies that Arson, breaking of library doors and breaking of burglary proofs in the library were the least among the security threats to information resources in the university libraries studied. Therefore, the researcher made some recommendations which include, the adequate funding of the university libraries by the university management to enable them install modern electronic security devices at strategic places in and outside the library reading rooms, the provision of solar energy that can provide constant light to the University libraries and keep the modern security devices functional, In addition, regular training of library staff and security personnel of the library on security issues relating to the university library. The researcher also recommended the adoption of a written documented security policy for the university libraries under study and more importantly the constant patrolling of the librarians in the various library reading rooms to ensure proper check on user activities

Authors: Echezona R. I. , Otubelu N. J. , Enenche Jeremiah Agada
Published: November 2024

Citations of masters’ degree dissertations submitted to the National Institute for Legislative and Democratic Studies (NILDS) for a period of 6 years 2015-2021, were analyzed for finding possible relationships between citing, cited articles and bibliographic forms. Frequency and percentage distributions presented in charts and tables and measures of central tendency were used to analyse the findings showed that books, journals and internet resources were used by the students and the books were the most cited resources in the dissertations, however, technical reports and conference proceedings were not utilized. Also legislative oversight had the highest number of citations followed by legislative drafting and committee system. The lowest numbers of citations were from effective legislation, legislative aids and legislative efficiency. The influence of the currency of the library resources was a significant determinant of their utilization in the institute library. It was therefore recommended that government should ensure proper allocation of funds to special libraries because information resources could not be provided and organized without availability of funds, special libraries should employ qualified staff to conduct in-house training for junior staff, employ user education programmes to ensure adequate understanding of library activities and implement effective collection development policy to endure currency, functionality and comprehensiveness of information resources.
Resource-based or service-based: Libraries must make a choice
Authors: Amanze-Unagha Blessing N. , Nwosu Moses Chikezie
Published: November 2024

This paper focuses on the difficult challenge of making a decision by libraries. Libraries face the critical decision of adopting a resource-based approach of prioritizing collections and access or a service-based model that focuses on user experience and satisfaction and community engagement. This decision has significant implications for library‘s sustainability. This paper also x-rays the benefits and drawbacks of each choice, examining how resource-based libraries promote and excel in preserving knowledge and providing access while service-based libraries foster social connections and community engagement. Libraries have traditionally been respected as sanctuaries of knowledge of book and non-book materials. However, with the emergence of technology and changing user needs, libraries are at a crossroads of choosing between being resource-based or service-based. In discussing this, this paper recommends that libraries must choose wisely on a path that aligns with their vision, resources, and community needs so as to remain vibrant community hubs, fostering knowledge, creativity and connection in a changing information landscape, but however, concluding that libraries do not have to make a choice because both resources and services make up a library.

Authors: Giwa Ayokunle Oluwadamilola , Ogundana Ayomide Ayoola , Ozonuwe Opene Sunday
Published: November 2024

Information management is a critical aspect of academic libraries as they serve as repositories of knowledge and resources for students, faculty and researchers. The rapid advancement of technologies such as artificial intelligence has significantly transformed the information management landscape of academic libraries. However, literature has established that many factors could inhibit the management of digital and physical collections in academic libraries, including awareness and adoption of AI. Thus, this paper examines the awareness and adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) in information management (IM) in academic libraries. This study adopted a descriptive survey method to gather the opinions of librarians in academic libraries in Southwestern Nigeria. Its population consists of 117 academic librarians in nine selected university libraries in Southwestern Nigeria. The census enumeration sampling technique was adopted to allow the targeted population to participate in this study. Findings revealed that most respondents had a high awareness of AI (mean 10.41). The types of AI adopted by academic libraries are RFID technologies (mean=1.42), security scanning machines (mean=1.37), machine readable catalogue (MARC) (mean=1.27) and chabots (mean=1.26). The results also showed that the benefits of AI include AI saving time spent on generating information (mean 3.40), AI automating library routines (mean 3.36), and face recognition used for library security (mean 3.27). The challenges mitigating the adoption of AI in information management by librarians are: AI is perceived as a threat to the job of librarians in academic libraries (mean 2.68); high disruption brought by AI on traditional library services (mean 2.42) and the need to redesign workflow (mean 2.42).

Authors: Obwogi Maj (Dr) Cliff Ooga , Huria Brigadier Steven
Published: November 2024

This article analyzed the United Nations’ (UN) approach to ensuring human security among its members, with a focus on the conflict in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). It explored the various strategies that the UN has utilized to promote human security in the region, such as deploying peacekeeping operations, providing humanitarian assistance, engaging in conflict resolution and prevention, and pursuing international criminal justice efforts. The article also examined the challenges encountered by the UN in addressing the complex and prolonged conflict in the DRC and identifies some of the key successes and limitations of the UN’s approach. The study underpinned by the theory of Human Security. The theory was developed by Mahbub ul Haq. Mahbub ul Haq introduced this idea in the 1994 in the Human Development Report published by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). The paper adopted a descriptive research design where human security matters are described the way they are articulated in the theatre of operations in DRC. Data was collected from secondary sources which were published journals and materials. The article contends that while the UN has been critical in defending people, promoting human rights, and preventing the escalation of violence in the DRC, more needs to be done to address the underlying causes of the conflict and promote sustainable peace and development in the region. To enhance the UN’s efforts in ensuring human security in the DRC, the article proposes several recommendations, including promoting greater international cooperation, addressing the illicit trade in natural resources fueling the conflict, investing in the social and economic development of the country, and addressing the grievances of marginalized and vulnerable communities. The article concludes by advocating for continued international support and cooperation for the UN’s endeavours to ensure human security among member states in the DRC conflict and beyond. The research design employed in this study is a descriptive design, relying on secondary data sources obtained through a desktop review of relevant literature.

Authors: Jude A. Anyanwu, , Perpetual Dafiel Grace , Ezinne Nneka Okoroafor Patience
Published: November 2024

The management of migration dynamics in the context of sustainable development is profoundly influenced by a multifaceted interplay of legal frameworks, international agreements, and national policies. Foundational international legal instruments, including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948), the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (1966), and the 1951 Refugee Convention, delineate essential rights for migrants and refugees. Regional agreements such as the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration and the African Union’s Agenda 2063 underscore the importance of cooperation and recognize migration as a significant driver of development. At the national level, various countries enact laws that address asylum, labor migration, and integration, ensuring alignment with international standards. This study critically examines the role of educational institutions in Nigeria in managing migration dynamics through a legal perspective. It posits that these institutions, grounded in the legal framework and human rights principles, can mitigate push factors by enhancing access to quality education, improving employability, and fostering awareness of migration pathways. The study advocates the creation of migration study centers and encourages academic engagement in advocacy efforts. Furthermore, it emphasizes the need for better integration of educational legal frameworks with national migration policies, which is essential for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) focused on reducing inequalities and promoting decent work. The analysis concludes that effective migration management necessitates collaboration among diverse stakeholders, including governments, international organizations, civil society, and the private sector. It also highlights the imperative to address challenges such as human rights protection and climate change. Ultimately, a robust legal framework, along with targeted educational initiatives, is crucial for establishing an inclusive and effective migration management system that aligns with national development objectives.

Authors: Hamed Shatnawi Mohammad Abd Alkareem , Yusof Nor Zalina Mohamad , Rahim Syahrir
Published: November 2024

Despite realizing the significance of adopting accrual-based IPSAS, the Jordanian government has not yet done so. Because of this circumstance, Jordan is still not achieving the objectives nor reaps the rewards of IPSAS adoption. Thus, this study was conducted with the aim of exploring the motivations behind the initiation of the full adoption of IPSAS to shed light on the extent of the losses resulting from the slowness of the adoption process. A qualitative methodology was employed to gather data using observations, documents review, and unstructured interviews. Sixteen participants from elite people who could speak for their institutions on the research topic were interviewed. Interpretive thematic analysis was employed to analyze the transcripts of interviews and observations. Whilst the texts of documents were analyzed by employing the technique of content analysis. The findings highlight the interplay of several kinds of motivations, including direct benefits such as enhancing financial reporting quality and decision-making processes. Some normative and coercive pressures, alongside several contingency stimuli like reform strategies and technical support availability, besides certain economic network factors such as economic globalization, further prompted the starting adoption process too. These findings not only fill gaps in literature but also urge policymakers to accelerate the IPSAS project. Beyond Jordan, this research offers valuable insights for other nations considering IPSAS adoption in their public sector accounting systems.

Published: November 2024

Insider threats pose significant challenges for organizations, causing severe financial and reputational damage. This study aims to develop a tool for measuring human, technical, and organizational factors contributing to insider threat risk levels in Malaysia's information and communications technology (ICT) sectors. We examined 40 items across these factors, validated by experts for content and criterion validity. We conducted a pre-test, adjusted based on expert feedback, and conducted a pilot study with 110 respondents from government agencies, ICT companies, and public tertiary institutions in Malaysia. Using IBM Statistical Package for Social Sciences, version 25.0, we performed exploratory factor analysis and tested the data with Bartlett's Test of Sphericity and Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin sampling adequacy tests. Cronbach's alpha assessed item reliability. The EFA grouped fifteen human factor items into three components: personal problems, negative personality traits, and inadequate security training. Four technical factor items formed one component, while fifteen organizational factor items split into issues with organizational practice, inadequate risk management, and ineffective management systems. Six insider threat risk level items formed a single component. Bartlett's Test of Sphericity was highly significant (Sig. < 0.001), and KMO values for all constructs exceeded 0.7, indicating excellent sampling adequacy. The overall Cronbach’s alpha value for 40 items was 0.97, confirming the instrument's consistency and stability. These findings provide a reliable tool for predicting insider threat risk levels in Malaysia’s ICT sectors, useful for researchers and practitioners alike.

Published: November 2024

Academic institutions occupy pivotal role in motivating students to engage with Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN)-relevant and international programmes equipping them to thrive in world’s challenges and transcend transnational boundaries. Using 4-point Likert scale with 60-item researcher-made validated questionnaire, this research measured the level of students’ self-esteem, academic experience, and motivation on ASEAN-relevant engagement, employing quantitative descriptive design. A total of 216 purposively grouped respondents: ABM (Accountancy, Business, Economics, Finance, and Management), HUMSS (Humanities, Arts, Music, Culture, Social Sciences, and Education), STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics, Medicine), and TVL (Information Communications Technology, Home Economics, Agri-Fisheries, and Industrial Arts), from Central and Northern Luzon, Philippines participated. Findings revealed first-year females taking HUMSS were more motivated with favourable impression towards engaging to ASEAN-relevant programmes that expanded their self-esteem. Significance of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 5 (Gender Equality) and 10 (Reduced Inequalities) in motivating students engage with ASEAN-relevant programmes was highlighted. Results revealed significant differences with year levels and programmes of study on academic experience, while their participation to ASEAN-relevant activities was evident on high positive correlation of motivation and self-esteem; thus, level of Filipino university students’ self-esteem and motivation to engage in ASEAN-relevant programmes improved as they went through their university education experiences. Therefore, institutions should develop well-rounded, globalised curriculum programmes, capturing students’ general welfare and maximising their full potential. Educators must provide students with support, recognising their efforts and progress, for their academic and personal development.
