Job satisfaction of employees, in general, is considered to be significant when an organization wants to achieve user's satisfaction. Academic libraries are non-profit oriented service production systems. The digital technology orientation in academic libraries has thrown more challenges to the library professionals rather than to the users who at times outwit the library professionals. The social pressure from the users and online document pressure has put the library professionals in stress. The extent of job satisfaction may differ individually according to age, educational qualification, experience, and marital status. The results revealed by the study that responding to library professionals working in academic institutions in the Madurai district were found to have their job satisfaction at varying degrees.
