Abstract :
Digital libraries have opened vistas of opportunities and doors for higher education system in Nigeria. E-libraries have brought about a paradigm shift in learning, research and teaching irrespective of the distance and location of the learner. This study investigates types of educational resources mass communication students in selected universities in Edo State access and subsequently utilise in their digital libraries. Built on Technological Determinism theory, the study adopts survey research design in interrogating key issues under probe. The study found that mass communication students in the selected universities use diverse forms of e-library resources especially e-books and that there is high level of utilisation of e-library resources among the respondents. The study also revealed that there is high preference of digital library among mass communication undergraduates compared to the traditional library. The study among other things recommends that mass communication students in selected universities be trained in the use of e-library resources beyond e-books and that universities authorities should invest more on e-library resources to bridge the digital gap.
