Abstract
University Libraries are store houses of
comprehensive knowledge and act as disseminating agents for the knowledge
producers because knowledge accrued from the library is invariably implemented
in creating new knowledge. In the information age, without doubt, Information
and Communication Technology (ICT) has given shape to libraries and library
resources. In this research, an attempt is made to gain an understanding of how
ICTs have currently affected Information Resource Development in Nigerian
University Libraries In a developing Economy such as Nigeria's. The research
identifies challenging situations faced by Nigerian University Libraries in the
quest to modernize and speed up their daily activities and services, and reduce
operational costs. This work attempts to highlight the limitations to and
challenges of full implementation of ICTs in Libraries. The terms "collection
development" and "information resource development";
"collections" and "information resources"; "university
libraries" and "academic libraries"; are used as Interchangeable
terms In this research
