From the broader perspective if we see that the Librarians are involved into the administrative functions of the library. i.e POSTCORB
Planning: the best feature for your library operations, whether the selection of software, lay out etc.
Organizing: How to well organize the various operations of the lirbrary
Staffing: staffing pattern within your unit. Library assistant, Astt. Librarian,
Training: Attending training workshop,
Coordination: with your own staff and the colleagues of your institute.
Reporting: regular reporting to your Big Bosses about the affairs of the library
Budgeting: preparing the library budget with respect to the Books, e resources. Print Journals, infrastructure development etc. etc.
Librarian has to ensure that all the operations i.e Technical computerized have to be well taken care off.
