Social science primary documents in Nigerian libraries

Abstract

In 1977 questionnaires were sent to selected libraries and individuals in Nigeria in connection with a pilot survey which set out to investigate the state of printed social science ephemera in Nigerian libraries. The study became necessary following the increase in the amount of such material in recent years, the introduction of inter‐disciplinary African studies in Nigerian universities and the higher level of public awareness in African affairs vis‐à‐ris Nigeria. These circumstances thus made it pertinent that the materials be acquired and properly organized for future research.
