Samuel J. Udoudoh

Abstract


The study was designed to determine the use of library on undergraduates’ performance. A reliable and validated 30 item questionnaire of the Yes/No type and the likert scale type was administered on 300 students comprising of 100, 200 and 300 level students of Selected Nigerian Universities across the six geo-political zone. The response rate was 252 and the results shows that most undergraduates of selected Nigerian universities students don’t use the library for the resources it
