    USE OF DIGITAL LIBRARY SERVICES BY STUDENTS IN NIGERIAN UNIVERSITY LIBRARIES
    (NIGERIAN JOURNAL OF EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY, 2016) OPALEKE, J. S.; BABAFEMI, G. O.
    The study investigated university students' use of digital library services in selected Nigerian university libraries. Specifically, it examined the factors that influenced their use of the collections in the university libraries studied. The study covered six Federal university libraries in Nigeria. The libraries are those of University of Ibadan; University of Ilorin; Federal University of Technology, Owerri; Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University, Bauchi; Nigerian Defence Academy, Kaduna; and University of Uyo. The study involved 682 respondents drawn from the institutions, using cluster stratified random sampling method. Two sets of questionnaires were applied on the respondents (students and heads of libraries) coupled with structured interview. The study discovered that, students are not ignorant of the existence of the materials in and outside their libraries, while few of them knew of their stock in these libraries. The materials are not regularly consulted by those that are aware. The relevance of multimedia to study; library staff advice; and course demands are major factors influencing factors for the use of collections in the university libraries by students, while users cut across all the class of students.
