Beskrivelse
Resumen:	This study examines the electronic resources collection development, awareness, and utilization in the University of CalabarLibrary. With the growing importance of digital information in academic settings, the researcher explores the library's strategies for acquiring e-resources, the level of awareness among students and faculty, and the extent to which these resources are utilized for academic and research purposes. Data were collected through a mixed-method approach involving questionnaires, interviews, and a review of library records. The findings revealed that while the University of Calabar Library has made significant strides in acquiring a variety of e-resources, challenges such as low level awareness, limited access points, and low utilization rates persist. The study recommends improved promotional strategies, increased training for users, and enhanced technological infrastructure to maximize the potential of e-resources in supporting academic and research activities within the university.
