Abstract
The advancement of Information Communication Technology has brought change to the operations of library
services in many academic libraries in Nigeria, from traditional methods to a modernized way with the
computerization of library activities. The paper looks into library automation for enhanced users’ satisfaction of
library services via acquisition, circulation, online Public Access catalogue, Catalogue and serial control. The
paper would help academic libraries in Nigeria who have partially automated or those that have not yet
automated their library activities to fully embrace it so as to satisfy the information of needs of the users by
providing efficient library services. It also highlighted some rationale and requirement for the successful
implementation of library automation in academic libraries in Nigeria and how best to tackle the challenges
confronting libraries in an academic setting. It concludes by urging the management/Stakeholders of all the
academic libraries in Nigeria to carefully plan and implement high quality library and information services due
to the growing demand of users and the changing social and technological environment of the present era.
