Abstract: 

Library is a vital learning resource in an institution of higher education for teachers and students. It offers continuously updated information on a variety of subjects. When digitized, it is called digital library. There is a big difference in digital libraries and traditional library (conventional library) as they allow users to access on-line, electronic versions of documents and images. Digital library does not limit the space as was the case with traditional libraries. For the purpose of study various variables were identified like usage of E library, usage of library website, automation of E library and a well-structured questionnaire was prepared. 129 responses were received and chi square test and one way ANNOVA was used to test the differences and association between the variables. It was found that E library was more accessible and useful than other traditional libraries.
