Abstract

User study are of great importance since they provide a substantial body of specific knowledge, facts and conclusions that are of great value for the development of new facilities. It requires a significant amount of time and effort. The understanding of user behaviour can be gained through a particular user study. This paper highlights the perspectives of users in libraries in the current electronic environment where libraries are faced with new challenges brought by the digital revolution and rapidly developing new information technologies. It also examines the importance of understanding user behavior and changing information needs and their satisfaction with the quality of the services libraries provide to meet the changing requirements. From the study we find that textbooks and journals are the most popular sources of information the students used in the library. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
