The aim of Strategic Human Resources Management (SHRM) is to provide a future direction to manage people in terms of the long-term planning of human resource management by aligning it with an organization’s overall plan. Library as an organization is already in practice of SHRM, but there are some challenges that need to attend due to the huge changes in library management style due to digitization services. The nature and role of libraries have changed in response to the new digital environment; new applications and services have been developed and that differs from traditional libraries and their approaches to information provision. New kinds of job responsibilities have been in practice and new types of skills and competencies are in demand. The management needs to identify the challenges and handle the situation with care in terms of long term benefit of the library as well as for the human resources. This report focuses on strategic human resource management techniques in a digital library environment which may may help policy makers to identify ways in which they can motivate their employees, and policy planners to identify their staff's different requirements in digital library context.
