Observa-se que auxílio dos funcionários da Biblioteca se faz necessário para ajudar os usuários no uso de recursos e serviços para satisfazer suas necessidades de informação. O estudo também revela que os usuários não podem visitar a biblioteca frequentemente devido à falta de tempo, bem como revela que os materiais impressos mais lidos dentre os usuários são revistas e jornais.Faculdade de Filosofia e Ciências2012-11-02info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/bjis/article/view/105610.36311/1981-1640.2011.v5n2.07.p69Brazilian Journal of Information Science: Research Trends; Vol. 5 No. 2 (2011); 77-96Brazilian Journal of Information Science: Research Trends; Vol. 5 Núm. 2 (2011); 77-96Brazilian Journal of Information Science: research trends; v. 5 n. 2 (2011); 77-961981-1640reponame:Brazilian Journal of Information Scienceinstname:Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho (UNESP)instacron:UNESPengporhttps://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/bjis/article/view/1056/2172https://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/bjis/article/view/1056/2180https://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/bjis/article/view/1056/5164Sohail, Md.Alvi, Andleebinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2020-09-25T17:08:54Zoai:ojs.www2.marilia.unesp.br:article/1056Revistahttps://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/bjis/indexPUBhttps://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/bjis/oaibrajis.marilia@unesp.br||1981-16401981-1640opendoar:2020-09-25T17:08:54Brazilian Journal of Information Science - Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho (UNESP)false
