Abstract

The objective of the work was to analyze the quality of the information resources of educational libraries. Methods: A user survey of ten educational libraries was conducted to achieve this objective. Results: It was found that representatives of different target groups visit libraries for different purposes. Students and pupils use the library mainly to carry necessary textbooks and books, communicate, attend events. Academics, lecturers / professors, use it not only to obtain the book, but also to check references and read new publications in the library, use electronic resources, as well as to work on research. Sometimes pupils and students often need the help of library staff, indicating a lack of information literacy. Scholars, lecturers / teachers, are often able to fend for themselves. Electronic resources are the most effective, according to respondents, but visitors to educational libraries also continue to use traditional resources. Conclusions: Research shows that to increase the efficiency and quality of information resources of educational libraries, employees should focus their efforts on improving the information literacy of library users, as well as demonstrating the values of the library, inform about library services and maintain using information and communication technologies.
