Abstract
Purpose: examining that the postmodern library as a fluid, ambiguous, and “quantum” organization how could be assessed.
Methodology: conceptual analysis
Findings: Today’s academic libraries face unprecedented challenges developed by the "dynamic of perpetual change". The present environment of unpredictable and perpetual change is not a phase or a period of transition but the new reality. In order to meet the demands of this new environment, experts advocate the creation of flexible, highly responsive, and collaborative organizational structures.
Originality/Value: This article tries to suggest a new conceptual framework and a different mental construct, if the postmodern library is to survive in an age of assessment.

Abstract
Purpose: A comparative study has been developed for the root of epistemology between positivism and Quranic principles.
Methodology: I used Documentary research method with critical approach to appraise existing epistemic claims and render an alternative view.
Findings: The author finds that some most important challenges in positivism such as pure empiricism, feminism, cultural and historical dilemma, and ethical points are answered in Quran.
Originality/Value: the article is original because of taking epistemic approaches from Quran. With this stand point, each observation belongs to the rigid reality world and these realities are presumption of each research. Besides, varieties (difference) created by God in the world as races, folks, nations and ethnic groups are the base of episteme.
