The population of the study included all professional librarians within the University of Ghana Library System (UGLS). The study used a well-structured questionnaire containing 12 items questions designed to elicit information on perceptions of preferred leadership qualities in academic library. Professional librarians at the University of Ghana are very sensitive about their relationship with, and leadership characteristics of the University of Ghana Library System (UGLS).
