    As knowledge is on the rise and research outputs from academic and research libraries continue to increase, there is a need to create access to some information materials that have no copyright restrictions so that information users can gain unhindered access electronically to institutional resources beyond where it is physically domicile for researchers’ benefits. The development of an Institutional Repository for academic and research libraries is the way forward because the process makes possible visibility of localized scholarly contents on web platform and also provide open access to the resources. In Nigeria, the establishment of the Institutional Repository in some academic and research institutions has helped to reduce researchers’ and students’ challenges of accessing information in institutions that are far off there residing location. This is a big challenge that can affect researchers’ efforts in gathering materials that they can cite for their research work. With more establishment of Institutional Repositories, access to localized information domiciled in the remote institutions can be easily accessed by visiting the institutional library online to retrieve the material. This paper explores the relevance of developing Institutional Repositories for open and unrestricted access to localized resources; and discusses academic and research libraries roles in developing institutional repositories; the types of software to be used for the development; and the hardware requirements alongside. The copyright infringements was addressed and the way forward to ensures that contents to be uploaded into the provision are checked using copyright checker called Sherpa Romeo.

A descriptive survey research was used to carry out the investigation. The population was randomly sampled and covered all the matriculated student of the selected institutions that were registered as a library user. The questionnaires were thereafter sent to each of the institutions surveyed to facilitate prompt, high and accurate response from target population. Data were analyzed using frequency and percentages. Findings of the study showed that all the tertiary institutions libraries under study found Arabic materials readily available. Another finding in this study showed that students use the library for seeking their information needs. It has been revealed that facilities are organized for easy use. The finding showed that acquisition and collection polices were evaluated mainly to cater for students information needs. In addition, Arabic students were significantly satisfied with the library collection policy. There is a significant relationship between the libraries Arabic based services/facilities and students educational development. The study concludes that Arabic based services/ facilities can, to a considerable extent, satisfy the information needs of users. The study will benefit researchers, Arabic studies teachers, students and Islamic organization, nation-wide and internationally.
