Abstract

In this age of information explosion, technological advancement and the increasing demand for information, no single library on its own can effectively meet the information needs of users. This has called for the need to provide information and reference services to (various) numerous users or patrons and as well encouraged libraries and ventures into creation of many innovative services and media linking new technologies with traditional library information services. Social Networking sites are one of the new technologies offering libraries the opportunity to reach out to its clients.The use of this platform has affected the operations and service delivery of all organizations.The idea of having a social networking site linked to a University library’s website is to enable patrons’ have a live discussion with a professional on issues pertaining to the use of the library and also allow the libraries to advertise their programmes and activities.
