dc.description.abstractThe study evaluated the information literacy skills as predictor of use of electronic information resources by undergraduates in Bayero University Library, Kano. The study adopted a survey design with a study population of 823 undergraduate students who registered with the university libraries between 2017- 2019 academic session, from which a sample of 165 respondents were selected using Wimmer and Dominick’s (1987) formula. Data was analyzed using the SPSS software, frequency distribution and percentages. The findings revealed that most of the undergraduates in Bayero University Library, Kano considered their level of information literacy skills to be high. Electronic information resources have indeed become very important to undergraduates in Nigerian university libraries especially in accessing up-to-date information as they give access to quality information irrespective of place, time and space. However, the study recommended that the management of BUK library should ensure that the teaching of information literacy skills to undergraduates in BUK is promoted. This is to ensure that the high level of usage of EIRs by undergraduate students is sustained
