Edité par Emerald
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the correlation between university libraries and academic research achievement and analyze if university library resources correlate with academic research achievement. Design/methodology/approach – The paper seeks to verify the correlation between university libraries and academic research achievement and to examine which university library resources relate to research achievement. A variety of research questions were posed concerning the relationship between a university's library resources and academic research achievement. Structural equation models (SEMs) were developed to answer the research questions. Most research questions posed were affirmatively answered using the SEM process. Findings – This study confirmed that labor and budget, investment in e‐resources and an investment in university libraries enhances academic research achievement. Research limitations/implications – An SEM for verifying the correlation between university libraries and academic research achievement was developed in the study. Originality/value – This study is the first including an investment factor in e‐resources for verifying the correlation between university libraries and academic research achievement.
