| dc.description.abstract | This paper examines the benefits of MTN Foundation Educational Projects in three pioneer universities in Nigeria for the provision of electronic information resources to support the aims and objectives of teaching, learning, research and leisure. The paper revealed accrued benefits that include availability of current and relevant information resources, access and retrieval, daily services at invariably no cost and obtaining hardcopies at far less the price obtainable in commercial centres. It concludes that the challenges of sustainability includes cost of updating the already subscribed databases, e-journals, e-books, renewal of internet connectivity and general maintenance of the hard and software. The paper therefore recommends that sustainability can only be achieved through integrated, viable, inclusive, participatory and concerted collaborative efforts by the benefiting universities and libraries. | en_US |
