Hence, digitalization has brought a paradigm shift in acquisition, processing, preservation and dissemination of information in Nigerian universities. In other words, digitalization has aided and enhanced effectiveness and efficiency in the management of information resources in Nigerian university libraries. Major benefits of digitalization in Nigerian university libraries include ease of access and use of information, preservation of information, cost saving in terms of space in archiving of information resources, scholarship, and prestige. Notably, in spite of the significant benefits of digitalization in management of information resources, Nigerian university libraries lack the capacity to provide requisite technological infrastructures toward sustainability of digitalization of information in line with global trend and best practice.
