dc.description.abstractLibrary information resources, most especially electronic resources, must be used if the goal of setting up academic library is to be realised. The primary aim of this paper is to investigate the assessment of availability and use of eresources by undergraduates in Nigeria. This study was carried out at LadokeAkintola University of Technology (LAUTECH), Ogbomoso among the undergraduates. Data was collected by the distributing a questionnaire to users of the library, those whose visited the library during a particular period. The study was exploratory in nature and employed descriptive survey to determine undergraduates’ assessment of e-resources, reasons for use, extent of use and factors hindering the use of e-resources by the students. Results revealed that e-resources in LAUTECH were effective, the students use elibrary resources for researches and to do assignment. The study also revealed that the extent of use of electronic was low. The study recommends that the university management should come out with workable measures aimed at reducing the cost of internet browsing and provide functional network to facilitate students access to and use of e-resources on regular basis.en_US
