Findings revealed that work design (Adj R2 = 0.177, F (1, 356) = 77.866, p < 0.05) and ICT Use (Adj. R2 = 0.055, F (1,356) = 21.839, p < 0.05) significantly influence service delivery of librarians in private university in Oyo state respectively and jointly (Adj R2 = 0.176, F (2, 356) = 39.121, p < 0.05).
