Description The study entitled “A Study of the Use of Libraries of Colleges of Education in Punjab” has focused on assessing the use of the resources and services of libraries of colleges of education in the state. The study is confined to the 19 colleges of education, including 03 Government Colleges of Education (GCE), 15 Government Aided Colleges of Education (GACE) and a University Colleges of Education (UCE) established up to August 2004. All self financing private colleges were excluded on the ground that almost all of these have been established during last few years and their libraries were still at infancy level. As survey method is most appropriate to get feedback from the users of a system, a sample survey was conducted for the purpose of study. Three different questionnaires were designed to collect information from library staff, students and teachers respectively. The stratified sampling was used to select sample from the universe of study comprising students of B.Ed. and M.Ed. courses and permanent teachers of colleges under study. From teach stratum sample was chosen randomly. Keeping in view the importance of observation method, personal visits were made to all 19 colleges under study. Questionnaire-I was administered to library staff to ascertain the organization, administration, resources and services of respective libraries. Questionnaire-II was distributed among 1119 students of B.Ed. course (30% of 3730) and 144 students of M.Ed. course (40% of 360) of 19 colleges under study. Questionnaire-III was administered to 64 permanent teachers of 18 colleges to know their opinion about the resource and services of libraries.
