Abstract:
Information is increasingly becoming a critical determinant of the success of human endeavour. It is
crucial to the performance of academics who are both consumers and producers of information. Information
and documentation including printed and online materials are the most important means to control and
access scientific result. For the academics to have rightful information, the university libraries have a part to
play. The vision, mission and strategies which are selected by universities as a guide for meeting the core
function of teaching, learning, research and providing information form the foundation on which the role of
the university library is established.
