| Summary: | Reading is a skill which can be acquired in a library environment therefore educators need to get a general profile of reading habits of teachers and students and their use of library for effective educational planning. This study investigates the reading habits and use of library of teachers and students in primary and secondary schools. Using a purposive sampling technique, Questionnaire, Observation and Interview methods were used to gather information froml22 respondents from five schools in the Ido Local Government Area of Oyo State, Nigeria regarding general attitudes towards reading, reading habits, reading speed and general use of library. Parental interest in reading, teachers and governmental encouragement of students as well as organisation of reading programmes by Non-governmental organisations (NGOs), societies and clubs are some of the solutions proffered. |
