Title: Decision type and the involvement of non-administrative academic librarians in decision-making

Abstract: Reviews of library literature over the past twenty years demonstrate a continuing concern with the involvement of librarians in decision making. This study surveyed non-administrative librarians in 95 academic libraries concerning their perception of involvement in ten department level decision issues and ten organization level decision issues. The respondents were asked how they were involved rather than how much they were involved. Vroom and Yetton's typology of decision making strategies was used to measure level of involvement. Five decision types were used: Routine vs Complex, Managerial vs Technical, and combined Managerial/Technical. The results of the multiple regression analysis indicated that the best predictor of perceived involvement in a type of decision is experience in that type of decision
