Qualitative data was gathered based on a conceptual framework on entrepreneurial competencies and innovative behaviour developed, through series of focus group discussion and face-to-face interviews with 12 informants. The data shows considerable evidence from the librarians involved in this study that the Malaysian RU academic libraries are dynamic in which the practices of entrepreneurial competencies leading to innovative behaviours have taken place to a certain extent with incremental award winning innovations.
