ABSTRACT
Libraries are information centers whose
primary function include collecting, organizing, storing, retrieving and
disseminating information to users with a view to satisfying their information
needs. Imagine walking into a vast library filled with thousands of books,
journals, digital files, and multimedia resources yet none of them are arranged
in any order. There are no catalogs, no subject groupings, and no clear paths
to finding what you need. Frustrating, isn't it? This scenario highlights the
indispensable role of organization in libraries. The true value of a library
lies not just in the quantity of its holdings, but in how well those holdings
are organized for easy access and meaningful use. Libraries house vast
collections of information resources in different formats such as, books,
journals, electronic resources, audiovisual materials, and more. Without
systematic organization, access to these resources would be chaotic,
time-consuming, and frustrating. Organizing library materials ensures that
users can easily find, retrieve, and utilize information, thereby enhancing the
overall effectiveness of the library in supporting teaching, learning,
research, and knowledge dissemination QAguolu & Aguolu, 2020].
