Abstract
- The article presents a study done in 2011 at Ambrose Alli University in Ekpoma, Edo State, Nigeria which looks at the impact that information and communication technology (ICT) has had on the libraries at universities in Nigeria. It discusses the modes of access to information, including the internet, electronic databases, and CD-ROMs, as being central to the success of modernizing information services at academic libraries. It also focuses on problems which libraries face in acquiring ICT such as lack of funding for hardware and software, lack of electricity or generators, and a lack of technical skills.
