Abstract

This study examined the influence of academic library services on the academic performance of undergraduate students in Adeleke University, Ede, Osun state. The provision of effective service is an essential part of the libraries which should not be taken for granted as enshrined in the country’s National Policy on Education (2004). Despite this fact, scholars found that there are several factors affecting the provision of library services in tertiary institutions in Nigeria. Descriptive survey research design was employed to gather data through a structured questionnaire to a total population of 262 undergraduate students. The data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics, including frequency counts and simple percentage. Also, linear regression analysis was used to test the hypotheses stated in the study
