Goal: Having an appropriate organizational culture is one of the main factors for implementing effective marketing in the libraries and information centers; therefore this study examines the relationship between attitudes to marketing activities and organizational culture. The research method is descriptive correlational type. The participants were all of the 1.5 employees and managers in the organization in 2812. They completed two questionnaires measuring attitudes to marketing activities and organizational culture. After excluded 42 incorrect questionnaires, other questionnaire analyzed. Pierson correlation coefficient was used to analyze data. There is a positive and meaningful relationship between the clan culture and need to marketing, the adhocracy culture and need to marketing and also the hierarchy culture and usage of the marketing plan. Furthermore there is a negative and meaningful relationship between clan culture and usage of the marketing plan and also hierarchy culture and need to marketing. From the employees and managers viewpoint, the hierarchical culture is the dominant culture in the organization. Also if the clan and adhocracy cultures improve more in the organization, the need to marketing will improve too.

Implementing the method, it is more needed cooperation between librarian and teacher. Cooperating with each other, they can identify the library resources to the students and how to use them. Regarding rapid changes in all areas especially in technology, librarians can act as a research advisors or supervisors using resource-based teaching method benefits and achieving related skills. They can facilitate research process and help teachers and student.

The research aimed at evaluating the usability of Iranian Research Institute for Information Science and Technology (IRNADOC) and Regional Information Center for Science and Technology (RICST) websites from the Shirarz University postgraduate students‘ point of view 5 The statistical population consisted of 5300 students from which a sample of 368 ones was extracted by random stratified sampling method whose categories were consisted of various educational areas students, including Humanities, Social Sciences, Basic Science, Agriculture Sciences, and Engineering. Then, the proportion of each category of any area was chosen by random systematic method. A researcher-made questionnaire was used to gather data which its content validity and reliability was calculated by the specialists and users 5 The findings showed that generally in the users‘ opinion, the application of the usability components in the two research centers‘ websites was in ―good‖ state (between 068-008). There were significant differences between the mean scores of the users‘ judgments and the usability of an ideal state (080), the means of various age categories, female and male user's means, and the means of various educational areas students. There were no significant differences between the mean scores of the postgraduate's judgments with different experience in Internet use, and the ones of the freshmen and elder postgraduates 5Originality: The results can help mush to understand the importance of the usability of research Center's websites and to pay more attention to their various components 5

Libraries and data centers are service establishments whose main task is linking the society with knowledge and information through their efficient services. The main aim of this paper is Identifying service Quality dimension and measuring service quality of the university library from user view, determining the priorities and gaps and suggesting it‘s promotion strategies by using adjusted Servqual and LibQual.A survey was conducted among the students and faculty members of PGU using a modified version of SERVQUAL and LIBQAL questionnaire. The data given here is based on a random survey of 488 faculty members and students studying at PGU. The dimensions of service quality were determined through exploratory factor analysis. The data was analyzed by paired -samples T test using spss.Findings and The results obtained through exploratory factor analysis suggest that university library service quality consists of four dimensions – i.e. affect of electronic access, affect of service (personal),understanding/knowing the user needs, library as a place, and affect of internal position collection and access,– which are different from SERVQUAL‘s original dimensions.

Research The current study aims to investigate the correlation among scholarly and social influence measures of scientometricians. In this study, the influence of 3824 researchers who have published in Scientometrics was studied using 18 different metrics include number of publications, number of citations, citations per paper, h-index, g-index, degree centrality, betweenness centrality, closeness centrality, eigenvector and number of collaborators.Research The present study was conducted using scientometric approach. A total of 3346 research articles published in the international journal of Scientometrics between 1008 and 2812were selected as the sample of the study. Results of the study showed that a few scientometricians like Glanzel, Rousseau, Schubert, Braun, Van Raan, Moed, Meyer, Debackere, Leydesdorf, Egghe, Vinkler, Gupta, Courtial, Van Leeuwen, Thijs, Kretschmer, Small, Persson and Liang occupy the topmost positions in various rankings, which indicate their absolute position in scientometrics research. Moreover, in order to determine the relationship among various scholarly and social influence measures, a series of Pearson product moment correlation tests were employed. Results revealed statistically significant relationships among all variables except citations per paper and betweenness centrality, closeness centrality and eigenvector. The correlation between the h-index and g-index was the strongest of all variable combinations studied at the 0000 level. Finally, specifications of high impact scientometricians are discussed. Using social influence measures beside scholarly influence measures will provide a more complete picture of researcher‘s function in various research areas.

The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of book packaging and its dimensions on customer purchasing intention of non-educational book with the moderating role of book price and content. Methodologically this research is of kind of descriptive/survey researches and fall into applicable studies. Statistical population is all buyers who buy from non-education bookstores in Shiraz city which among of them 280 individuals are selected as a research sample. To test the validity of questionnaires, face validity approach is used. Furthermore to measure questionnaires reliability, Cronbach's alpha approach (808) and split half approach (75 %) are applied. Findings show that only two dimensions of packaging including persuasive and informative ones influenced the purchasing intention of non-educational books. On the other hand, whilst book price has moderated the relationship between book packaging and purchasing intention of non-educational book, but book content couldn‘t moderate the relationship. packaging is inseparable part of book. With a plain and irrelevant design, without a consideration of typography style on packaging and nothing about price information on packaging, non-educational book's buying would be influenced negatively.

Knowledge, as a crucial requirement of every society, can be produced and disseminated through various means such as patents. Dissemination of knowledge is formed in a process called knowledge flow which is influenced by various factors such as the lag time. It has been studied in this research.
