Abstract： [Purpose/Significance] Analyze the job tasks, capability requirements, and capability development mechanisms of university library directors. [Method/Process] Adopt a reverse approach, starting from the job tasks of the directors, and working backward to determine the capability requirements and development mechanisms. [Result/Conclusion] The main job tasks of university library directors are to coordinate planning and organizational work. They need to possess the capabilities of foresight, planning, coordination, and communication. The measures for the development of these capabilities involve systematically cultivating and enhancing meta-capability, information capabilities, cognitive capabilities, logical thinking capabilities, and imagination.

Abstract： [Purpose/Significance] Clarifying the research object of library science, so as to make up for the shortcomings and deficiencies of the "theory of elements", "theory of library", "theory of library cause", "theory of technology" and "theory of knowledge" in the past, and consolidate the foundation of the discipline and enhance the legitimacy of the discipline. [Method/Process] Based on literature review and viewpoint review, a conceptual model of library science research object is constructed from the perspective of management. [Result/Conclusion] Library science is an applied interdisciplinary subject with multi-dimensional research themes and multi-situational dependence. Library science should be library management, and its research object should be "management theory", which includes four research themes of library organization, librarian, management and management object. Among them, library is the context and carrier, and librarian is the core and purpose. Management is means and basis, and the object of management is a complex system. The human nature assumption of librarians is the "first nature" of library science.
