Abstract


In any organisation or institute, service plays a very important role in their management and functions. Service is the main factor for the development of an organisation. The Library and Information Centre is a non-profit organisation. Its main objective is to provide the required information to the users, according to the user’s satisfaction and based on priority. User satisfaction is a very important aspect of a library; providing the best services is the primary need for the fulfilment of the objectives of a library. This paper is based on a study of the library and information services provided by different college libraries in the union territory of Dadra and Nagar Haveli. A researcher has tried to understand how many college libraries have a rich collection, good infrastructure, best facilities, and the type of library and information services provided to their users.
