“…Furthermore, understanding the relationship between employees and their environment is largely underexplored, and this study would be a contribution to this gap in the local literature. This is supported by Nykolaiszyn (2022) that the library and information science literature give a good idea of how university libraries work and what their plans are for the future. However, it doesn't go into detail about how employers or employees can improve a person's daily work environment.…”

Given the expanding trends and shifting work habits in libraries, where librarians have a variety of responsibilities, knowledge of the factors affecting work adjustment and job involvement is crucial for both employers and employees. The study aimed to examine the library staff's work adjustments during the new normal and its implications on their job involvement. An adapted research questionnaire was utilized which was distributed to ninety-five (95) library staff of a state university library in Mindanao and selected private and public libraries in the Islamic City of Marawi and Iligan City. Using the descriptive correlational research design, the study utilized descriptive statistics such as frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation to organize the data on the participants' work adjustment and job involvement and regression analysis to ascertain if there is a significant influence of work adjustment on their job involvement. Findings show that the level of work adjustment and job involvement among library staff members was generally high during the new normal. The library staff's level of adjustment significantly influenced their job involvement implying that library staff who have higher work adjustments also tend to have higher job involvement. In light of these findings, this study points to the need to conduct empirical studies concerning types of library processes that have been redesigned technology and automation are being leveraged, how the library staff are adjusting, and how the community is responding.
