Abstract:
The paper examines the contributions that libraries in Ghana are making towards research and scholarship in the country. The libraries discussed are mainly academic and special libraries. Attention is paid to the following services: interlibrary loan services, photocopying services, current awareness services, selective dissemination of information, bibliographical services, microform collections, and instructions in library use. The author concludes that libraries in Ghana are not making adequate contributions to scholarship and research largely because of inadequate funds and physical facilities.
