Item Why should Nigeria bother about nature conservation?(The Caxton Press, 1962) Bolwig, N.Item The records of civilizations(Ibadan University Press, 1975) Ogunsheye, F. A.Item Fee charging in Nigerian academic libraries: what justification(1993) Ojedokun, A. A; Ola, C. O.This paper examines the issue of charging as it affects Nigerian academic libraries. The issue is looked at from the economic, socio-cultural and political viewpoints. Because of its complexity from the three perspectives mentioned aboved, it was concluded that while generalized library services could be made free, charging can be introduced for personalised library services and information services. However, a clear distinction must be made between these three categories of services.Item Adequacy of academic journals in Nigeian university libraries during economic gloom:the Kenneth Dike library experience(2000-12) Ola, C. O.; Adeyemi, B. M.This paper discussed the adequacy of academic journals in Nigerian University libraries during economic gloom using the Kenneth Dike library (KDL) experience. It addresses the problem by looking specifically at the library allocations for books and journals from 1981/82 to 1989/90 session as well as the number of journal titles acquired annually vis-a-vis the number of registered readers in the library duirng the period. It was discovered that the library could no longer effectively support academic activities. As the number of registered readers increased, the number of journals acquired decreased. The library could hardly afford to maintain subsciption in existing journals not to mention adding new titles to the collection. It is therefore advocated that prioprity journals should be given first attention when allocating funds. University library administratos should evovle co- operative acquisitons. Avenues of getting aid from international organisations should be explored while the opportunities presented by internet should be utilized to enhance document delivery.Item Approaches to retrospective conversion of catalogue records of libraries(2001-06) Ola, C. O.; Eguavoen, E. O. LThis paper discusses the precedents to retrospective conversion. It looks at the genesis and development of machine readable format. Emphasis is placed on thorough planning which should spell out the focus of the exercise; make provision for the right calibre of staff, provide the necessary funds; weigh and evaluate options; and ensure management involvement in monitoring the project. The options to retrospective conversion are detailed and the methods for carrying out the exercise are specifiedItem Cataloguing information agenda for the millennium in Nigerian libraries(2002) Ola, C. O.This paper conceptualised the creation of an online national bibliographic network in Nigeria as the cataloguing and classification information agenda for the new millennium. To this end, a virile and efficient communication network system that will enhance the linkage of databases from the local, through zonal offices, to the national level is proposed as a preparatory step to ultimately connecting the international grid of databases. The continued relevance of cataloguers in professional practices is established. The attendant problems of "biblio-technovolution" are examined, while the roles of the federal government of Nigeria, the Nigeria library association, the national library of Nigeria, other library institutions, commercial agencies and individual librarians in meeting the challenges occurring in the business of creating access to the world of information is discussed.Item Leadership, higher education and the challenges of development in nigeria(2009) Abubakar, S.Item Transforming data dust to data gold(Ibadan University Press, 2011) Osofisan, A.
