To get acquaintance with the organisation, I searched the information from different sources such as library websites, articles and documents provided by the Librarian.

2. Data Analysis

The findings were divided into two categories, which are qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis-

a) Qualitative analysis

With the data gathered from the questionnaires, I conducted the qualitative analysis. The ODQ questionnaires were grouped under the seven dimensions and I calculated the average ranking for each of the dimensions.
