Abstract

Today availability of e-resources in a university library is very common. But their proper and maximum use is a matter for discussion. The Library environment has current undergone drastic change in terms of collection and services. The proliferation of resources has a significant impact on the academic community the library users to a great extent. Accordingly; these resources have occupied a significant place in the collection and budget of almost all libraries. Student’s attitudes seem to be very positive towards resources for their study and research and the role of libraries as gateway to provide assistance in accessing these resources. The college library should play a pivotal role in facilitating the students and teachers alike in the use of the resources and other library and information services. The college library should organize awareness and training programmes and seminars to educate the users on seeking information from resources and to maximize the use of library resources and services. The scope of the study is confined to the users of NREC College regarding the effective use of resources.
