This study investigates the awareness and use of library resources by the undergraduate and postgraduate students at Mahila Mahavidhyalaya, BHU, and library user utilisation rates, the most popular library resources, and user-experience issues related to access of library resource. This study employed a descriptive survey methodology. Sixty questionnaires were distributed out of which 56 returned, representing a 92% response rate. Respondents were selected from colleges using random sampling techniques. The outcome of responses reveal students' limited awareness and proficiency in accessing information resources hinder their utilization of various library resources, including thesis/dissertations, handbooks, encyclopedias, electronic journals, and books.
