It adopted Total-Enumerative Sampling Techniques, twenty-eight (28) library staff (both professional and Para-professional Staff) were sampled out of which responses from twenty-six (26) of them were received resulting to 92.8% return rate. Data were gathered using the Questionnaire as the instrument. Findings showed that the benefits of adopting Koha in the University of Ilorin library would have been higher had it been the University library makes use of all the modules. It was established that one of the challenges faced in the University of Ilorin Library in the use of Koha Software is the inadequate of technical know-how in terms of Koha operations. The study recommended that Library administrators in the University of Ilorin should begin to see the need to use all the modules in Koha for an improved effectiveness and efficiency library operations. Management of the University of Ilorin should ensure that there is appropriate funding allocated to the maintenance of the software. The management of the institution should look into how more workforces can be recruited as well as continuous training of staff on Koha ILS to acquire the necessary know-how for improved library services.
