*Book Description*
International students encounter many problems adjusting to the new
environment due to their different backgrounds. These differences influence
their expectation of library services and their adjustment with the new
academic, cultural and library environment. This book reports results of a
research study on International students’ perceptions of and attitudes
towards electronic resources in the OUC learning centre. It also discovered
some general problems in relation to international students’ use of
libraries in general and some substantial problems which were particularly
problematic to international students in connection with using of
electronic resources. I believe that this book will provide with a
guideline to all university libraries in general and especially for the
universities in non-English speaking countries. It is also expected that
this book will be useful to the library administration in particular and
the university administration in general to take necessary measures to
increase the usefulness of the library resources for international students
to successfully pursue their studies and research.
