A disproportionate stratified random sampling was used to select 322 respondents (undergraduates, postgraduates and lecturers/researchers) who consented to participate in the study. Questionnaire and informal interview were used for the data collection.,The study showed that more than half of the clients of Sam Jonah library were moderately satisfied with the library’s automation.
