CHAPTER ONE

1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND OF STUDY OR OVERVIEW

The concept of information is variedly understood, defined, used, applied and


managed by different authors, writers and scholars, but all titles towards the
achievement of an aim, objective or goal. But for the purpose of this frame
topic, it is geared to the legislature via the library.
(https://getbutto
Waiting in his introducing remarks oparaku (2011) professionally defines an
ideas library therefore, is a collection or selection of books accompanied a
machinery for their exploitation operated by people trained in the necessary
techniques. He informed further that in modern times, a library must also be
taken to include in its resources material other than books such as periodicals,
illustrations, films, records, types etc. (AVM) in addition the library must
indicate or provide methods of reaching resources of information which
cannot be provided from any of the graphic or other recorded sources.

Relatedly, library of congress located just east of the United States capital, is
one of the largest and most valuable research libraries in the word. It has more
than 12 million books and pamphlets and millions of charts manuscripts,
maps, musical compositions, engravings, lithographs and other items. The
world book encyclopedia of value 12,1976 inform that the library owns the
united states collection of incunabula (books printed before 1501) they
represent the earliest product of printing press, which are invented about
three thousand (3000) of them, known as the vollber collection, were brought
in 1930 at a cost of $ 11/2million.

1.2 HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF IMO HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY

Imo State was on of the seven newly created states by the federal military
government on February 3, 1976. The constitution of the federal republic of
Nigeria, 1979, made provision for the establishment of a house of assembly in
each state.

The constitution also provided that a state house of assembly shall consist of
democratically elected members three times the total number of seats which of
representatives in compliance such stipulations, the Imo State house of
assembly consist of 90 elected numbers in the second republic.

In accordance with a proclamation by the federal military government the Imo


State house of assembly as well as other state October 1999. Of the 90 pioneer
members of the state house of assembly four resigned to take up other
appointments in the executive arm of the state and the federal government
while are died in active service thus creating five seats (house of assembly Imo
State Nigeria brochure August 1980). (https://getbutto
Contemporarily, if is understandably therefore that when the military shoots
into the control of government, being a non-representative government, if
takes away the soul of democracy the legislature.

Before 1985 and 1999, when the military, which is a dictatorship, kept a vice-
like gripe an power in Nigeria, it scrapped the legislature in that period the
legislative structure, tradition and practice atrophied and indeed were almost
extinct from the fourth republic (Preface) cover 1999, if writers to assert to the
return of democracy in 1999 was therefore a new beginning, a self rediscovery
for the legislature in Nigeria.

The house is headed by the speaker on the legislative arm while by the
clerk/permanent secretary.

1.3 STATEMENT OF CHALLENGE

As I have definition-ally established earlier on in the course of the


development of this project, modern library set up, especially the “special
Library in which the legislature is best with some challenge. Accordingly,
Justifiably, these challenge range from poor budgetary government funding,
poor accommodation, unqualified and at times in sufficient staff, poor
motivation, administrative and corporate interference and intervention,
inordinate ambition of the library attendant to get rich quick by not passing
through them poor information network, lack of communication and office
fools, lack of innovation and inventiveness or creativity, lack of expansion,
obsolete and outdated library stock, lack of training and refraining and library
rules and regulation are known inhibiting challenges for library and
information services especially legislature of Imo State.

1.4 OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY

The objectives of this study are listed as follows

1. To identify the challenges affecting acquisition in special library.

2. To find out the factors that are responsible for these challenges.

(https://getbutto
3. To examine the impacts of these challenges on the services of the library
under study.

4. To suggest solutions to the challenges of acquisition in special library.

1.5 RESEARCH QUESTIONS

The following are the research questions:

1. What are the challenges affecting acquisition in special library?

2. What are the impacts of these challenges on the services of the special
library?

3. What are the impacts of these challenges on the services of the special
library?

4. How can the challenges of acquisition can be solved in special library?

1.6 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY

There is need for humorous working relationship between the workers and
legislatures (in the Legislature) as a veritable tool for a fair legislature the state
in order to realize the dividends of democracy.

It is also significant that it will add to the existing literature on library and
information services in the process of law making in Imo State in particular
and Nigeria in general. (https://getbutto
Finally, much has been said on process of law making or conditions in which
bills are presented and approved off.

1.7 SCOPE OF THE STUDY

The study emphasizes the legislature. The legislative process is widened and
focuses all aspects of human endearours for purposes of simplicity and orderly
presentation of the work in the study, the researcher will the whole legislature
aim of government in Imo State, which is the cradle of law making process.

1.8 LIMITATION OF THE STUDY

In every sphere of human activities, these are bound to be some constraints


which fend to militate against the achievement of a predetermined objectives
and goals. Accordingly, the researcher was faced with challenges of finance, in
the course of writing this project. The time frame for the project was also a
threatening one; it was too short, in view of the fact of final year preogramme.

The issue of transport fares, as you are highly aware or the present cost and
standard of living in the country because of distance for a legislator disturbed
the project, but in any way, God saw us through of thro and fro to legislature
(House of Assembly).

1.9DEFINITION OF TERMS

Book Acquisition: It is the process of obtaining materials to satisfy the need of


the users. It is carried through purchases, gifts and exchange, it also building of
collection in line with the objectives of the library.
