The academic librarians aged 31 years old and above, with master's degree and have 11 years and above of service have higher level of professional competencies than their younger counterpart, with bachelor's degree and 10 years and below of service. The academic librarians aged 31 years old and above, with master's degree and have 11 years and above of service have higher level of job performance than their younger counterpart, with bachelor's degree and 10 years and below of service. The higher the respondents' level of professional competencies in all its dimensions, the higher the level of respondent’s job performance.

Older librarians with a master's degree and over 11 years of service displayed higher professional competency and job performance compared to younger librarians with a bachelor's degree and less than 10 years of service. There was a positive correlation between professional competencies and job performance. Overall, academic librarians in this study exhibited strong professional competencies and high job performance.
