Author Guidelines

The current edition which is volume 9 number 1 received 13 manuscripts for peer review. After the blind review process, 6 articles were accepted for publication after minor revisions and 7 were rejected outrightly, amounting to 53.8% rejection rate. This volume showcases robust articles revolving around cybersecurity and library users’ privacy, cinematherapy and emotional intelligence of generation Z library patrons, digital media and copyright laws in Nigeria, electronic resources usage in private universities, research support services in university libraries and students’ deviant behaviour towards library resources.
The editorial team ensured that no article exceeded turnitin similarity index threshold of 20% to forestall any form of plagiarism. The team also made painstaking efforts to ensure accuracy of the works and that necessary corrections were duly effected. However, the authors are exclusively and chiefly responsible for any errors, mistakes and plagiarism that may be associated with their respective papers as well as the views expressed therein.
