Abstract

Reports a study of procedures employed in staff appraisal in a Ghanaian university library over a period of 16 years. A total of 650 appraisal forms filled by 25 assessors in the Balme Library, University of Ghana were examined. The conclusions drawn indicate that the performance procedures used did not provide the information required for management decision making. Recommendations are made as to how the procedure could be made effective and efficient.
