Abstract

Libraries in Nigerian colleges of education play a crucial role in supporting education, especially in teaching and learning. This study investigates promotional strategies for effective library resource utilization in government owned colleges of education in Kwara State. Objectives include assessing resource availability, usage by students, and identifying challenges such as limited awareness and insufficient facilities. A survey design was used, with 33 out of 47 participants sampled. Findings reveal adequate resources, but usage is mostly during exams. Recommendations include raising awareness and increasing funding to improve library services and meet financial needs.
