- W2130367067 abstract "INTRODUCTIONThere are various types of libraries such as; Special library, National library, Public library, Research library, Academic library and so on, but the focus of this study was on the School Library. A school library is the one of the library that has been established in a primary or secondary school (Edoka 2000). According to Waite (1989),School library is a collection of a wide range of learning and teaching materials which are housed in a place and centrally organized by librarian and indexed to serve readers. Fayose(1995) defined school library as the part of the school where collection of books, periodicals, magazines, and newspapers, films, computers, filmstrip, videotapes, recording of all types e.t.c. are kept for use by the students and teachers. Arua and Chinaka (2011) stated that school library information resources are seen as all inputs which are utilized in the library in order to provide good learning environment for students and teachers so as to be able to achieve educational goals. This variety of library information resources is essential to facilitate the school library fulfill its functions among which are: to thoroughly provide information resources necessary for the school's educational programmes and to help in improving and rising the reading skills and learning habits of students.Fakomogbon, et al., (2012) argued that school library help to support the school curriculum by providing up-date information to keep teachers and students abreast of new development. The library also promotes the development of reading skills and encouraged long term planning habits through reading, listening to and viewing a range of learning materials. Also, Merrill (1983), related library information resources to students' learning outcomes and found that the use of school library resources were associated significantly with better learning outcome. Effective school libraries provide additional reading opportunities for students, which in turn improve reading skills, knowledge, and writing and clarity of expression, which in turn support student performance in all other curriculum subjects (World Bank, 2008). However, Crossley and Murby (1994) revealed that the inadequacy of relevant information resources in school libraries contributed to low levels of student performance.Statement of the ProblemStudents cannot acquire knowledge only through text books or classrooms. They refer to other school library information resources also. The school library is of great help in fulfillment of their information needs. It is much more inconvenient for students to collect required reading materials from the school library (Alie, 2000). It does not only save their time but also cost of books and energy. Adeyemi (2009) opined that, student expectations and demands of the library are reflected in their library information resources usage. Salisu (1996) too argued that, the extent at which pupils and young people of today will be creative, informed and knowledgeable will be shaped by the usage of the library resources available within the school. In addition, Elaturoti (1993) described that, the usefulness of any school library Resource depends on its maximum utilization by students otherwise it is as good as wasted. That is why Fakomogbon, et al., (2012) had stated that lack of standard school library with relevant information resources which students could use for their studies could be one of the major causes of mass failure in the school. However, little is known about the access and use of school library information resources in secondary school in Tanzania, particular Morogoro Municipal. Therefore, this is the gap that this study seeks to fill.OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDYThe major objectives of the study were;** investigate access and use of school library information resources by the secondary students* To determine the level of satisfaction of students towards school library information resources* To find out challenges facing students in the use of school library and how to address such challengesLITERATURE REVIEWAccess and use of school library information resourcesLibraries are social institutions created to safeguard knowledge, preserve the cultural heritage and provide information for education and research purposes to different users. …" @default.
