Abstract

Career development is a continuous process that continues and changes throughout. Career development includes progression towards a desired future career. It involves making maximum use of training and development programs to enhance job-related skills and, ultimately, their career. It is observed from the study that one-third of the respondents have a higher level of perception towards resources provided by libraries for career development of MBA graduates. Further, nearly half (49.5%) of the respondents have had moderate levels of perception towards overall level of usefulness of career development related resources provided by library, 27.7% of the respondents have had low level of perception towards overall level of usefulness of career development related resources provided by library, and the remaining 22.8% of the respondents have had higher level of perception towards overall level of usefulness of career development related resources provided by the library.
