dc.description.abstractThe study investigated undergraduate student’s awareness and compliance to library rules and regulations in Federal University of Petroleum Resources Effurun. The objectives of the study were to find out the awareness/alertness of the undergraduates to the rules and regulations in university libraries, the categories of rules and regulations, the compliance level of the undergraduate students to the existing rules and regulations, the effects of the rules and regulations on library usage as wells as sanctions for defaulting the library rules and regulations. The study adopted a descriptive survey design and random sampling technique was used to select two hundred and twenty respondents in FUPRE university library. Questionnaire was used for data collection while descriptive statistics was used in analyzing the data. The undergraduate students in FUPRE are aware of the rules and regulations in the university libraries and they comply with them very often. The study therefore recommends that: more awareness programmes on the rules and regulations should be created in the university libraries, users should be educated on the need to always comply with the library rules and regulations, stricter measures should be put in place to sanction or penalize any defaulter of library rules and regulations as this will further ensure compliance to the rules and regulations.
