Abstract
The purpose of this study was to put together in one piece,
scattered newspaper publications on education for the period 1979-
1983, and also point out the need to index newspaper publications
since they carry relevant information about current happenings or
development on education in Nigeria. It was also meant to analyse
the citations gathered so as to facilitate easy and fast retrieval
of information on education,,
Six newspapers were selected as sources for the list of
bibliographic entries using the purposive sampling technique. A
selection guide for the articles was also formulated using the
same technique. On the whole, 1,365 annotated entries were made
and analysed. The analysis was made by grouping the entries
according to educational levels and were further sub-divided by
subject disciplines.
It was observed from the analysis under levels of education,
that out of 1,365 entries the general aspect of education (that is
an article treating three or more issues) got the highest percentage
entries of 42% and was followed by tertiary education with
33% entries. The Primary level of education featured least with
9% entries.
Under subject categories, educational administration and
planning featured most with 21% entries, followed by higher
