Wood, Fiona College Libraries Foreign Countries Higher Education Library Catalogs Library Collections Library Extension Library Guides Library Instruction Library Research Microforms Questionnaires Reference Services Tables (Data) Use Studies User Satisfaction (Information) Produced as part of a formal library review process, this publication reports the results of a 1981 survey of approximately 1000 undergraduates, postgraduates, and academic staff at the Australian National University (ANU) to determine their use of and satisfaction with facilities, materials, and services provided by ANU's library system.

A brief review of the findings, some concluding comments, and 31 tables of data are provided. Appendices comprise samples of the undergraduate, postgraduate, and academic staff questionnaires.
