A Survey of Library Service Delivery in an Age of Internet in Mountain Top University
Abstract & Summary
Modern information technology has led to significant changes in how libraries operate. This study
examined how libraries services are provided in the age of internet in Mountain Top University
Library. It adopted a descriptive survey method and 200 participants were chosen at random for
the study. A structured questionnaire were used to collect data from the sampled population. Data
analysis was done using SPSS, and the results were presented in percentage and frequency table.
The study found that majority of the respondents 192(96%) agreed that electronic mail (e-mail)
were available in the library, 187(93.5%) agreed that circulation service were available,
157(78.5%) disagreed that bibliographic service was available. While 88(44%) strongly agreed
