description Objective: Impression management has received a significant amount of attention among behavioral scientists. In fact, employees try to form their own image in the other people’s minds. This paper explains engagement of voluntary and altruistic behaviors and disengagement of anti-citizenship behaviors in the form of consequences of applying impression management tactics. Methodology: The present study is an applied research in terms of aim, and is a descriptive-survey research in terms of data collection. It is also a correlational research in terms of the relationship between research variables and is distinctly based on structural equation modeling. The population of the study consists of managers and staff of libraries of University of Tehran. Findings: Research findings based on structural equation modeling portend that there is a positive meaningful relationship between impression management and organizational citizenship behaviors among managers and staff of libraries of University of Tehran. On the other hand, there is a negative meaningful relationship between impression management and anti-citizenship behavior.
