Abstract
The study looked into how students felt about
using the services and materials at two stare-owned university libraries in Imo
State. The study had five objectives and research questions. The s1t1dy was
proportionately stratified to randomly sample 783 respondents, which included
672 undergraduate and IHI graduate students from Kingsley Ozumba Mbadiwe
University in Ogboko and Imo State University in Owerri. Out of the Seven
Hundred and Eighty-TT,ree copies of the research instrument administered, Seven
Hundred and Five were returned and accepted as valid for the study thus giving
a Ninety percent (90l%) return rate. Simple percenltlges, mean scores,
frequency tables for descriptive statistics, and the ztest for inferential
statistics were used to analyse the data gathered. Additionally, the criteria
for determining whether an item should be accepted or rejected for research
questions one and two were based 'on a fifty percent (50'7<') henclunark.fnr
m•ailability or nnn-amilability percentage values, while the criteria for
research questions three to five were based on whether the item's mean score
value was equal to or higher than the criterion mean. Additionally, a
2-dimensional independent z-test with a significance threshold of 0.05 was used
to examine the mean scores of IMSU and KOMU students on their attitude toward
using the university library's resources and services. The study's conclusions
showed that print, non-print. fixed. and variable capital personnel resources
for all cadres are available in both university libraries. User education,
bibliographic, cataloguing, reference, binding, and information services are
all available. Keywords: Students, Attitude, Use, Library Resources, Library
