Abstract

As librarians and information officers become increasingly aware that their main function should be to provide an efficient service for their users, more attention is being paid to discovering what type of service is required. Any service must be based on the information needs of the users, and as a means of determining these the organized use study has achieved a position of prominence in recent years.
