Library services to colleges of education in the former Republic of Bophuthatswana

The purpose of this research was to determine what library facilities, resources and services were available to students and lecturers at colleges of education in the former Republic of Bophuthatswana and to determine how they compare to those available in some colleges of education libraries elsewhere. Also to determine students' and lecturers' use of the facilities, resources and services provided and whether they regard them as adequate. This investigation comprised a survey of the literature and an empirical survey which entailed giving questionnaires to a sample of students and lecturers at colleges of education. It was tound that students and lecturers use the libraries, but that facilities, equipment and collections are inadequate in many respects which contributes to the fact that most of the students and lecturers deemed the services offered by library staff to be inadequate. Several recommendations are made to improve services. / Information Science / M. (Library Science)
