Place and Role of the Academic Library in Tertiary Institutions in Nigeria:- Ekenna Ugochi C.
Abstract
The establishment of academic libraries in
institutions of higher learning across the globe is geared towards supporting
and enhancing teaching, learning and research.Edom (2012) stated that academic
libraries are primarily established to support and enhance the tripartite
functions and the full realization of the educational goals of the parent
institutions. The strength of any institution is accessed by the strength of
its library. By implication therefore, the success of any institution depends
on the facilities, resources (human and material) etc. of its library. Academic
libraries are integral parts of institutions of higher learning, be it the
Universities, Polytechnic, Colleges, and Research Institutes. To fulfil their
mandate of supporting the educational objectives of their parent bodies, the
library had to develop and maintain standard books, journals, and audio- visual
collections and services. If laws providing for the establishment of tertiary
institutions must make provision for the establishment of the library
simultaneously, it means that academic libraries are as old as institutions
they serve.
