Technical Services in Nigerian University Libraries:-Nnndozie, Chizoba D.
Abstract
University
libraries, generally, provide information services designed to support the
achievement of the broad mandate of their parent institutions. Perhaps, it is
pertinent to reiterate that, all over the world, the core mandate of
universities have been partitioned to three broad areas, to wit: research,
publication and community services (Nnadozie, 2007). It is for this reason that
university libraries shape their structure, organize their functions and tailor
all their operations and services to assist their parent institutions' achieve
their mandate. Although classical Library and Information Science (LIS)
professional textbooks indicate what the ideal university library should be,
practical reality shows that there are slight differences in various universities.
Such variations, where they exist, are functions of funding, legislation and
administrative predispositions. However, on close scrutiny, it is evident that
the major preoccupations of university libraries in Nigeria are not quite
different or detached from the global professional trends in librarianship and
LIS scholarship.
