Assessment Of School Library Services In Ile-Luji/Okeigbo Local Government Area Of Ondo State, Nigeria

Abstract

The paper carried out the analysis of the library collection, staffing, building space and furniture of Ile-oluji/Okeigbo Local Government Area, Ondo State. The evaluation was
based on the “Ondo State Library Board for Schools Standard”. Findings from the research
showed that these school libraries were yet to achieve any meaningful growth in terms of
educational development of the Ondo state, talking less of the UNESCO standard. Libraries
in these schools were underdeveloped in terms of staffing. Also, ways of revenue generation to support funding from the state governments were suggested in the paper.
