Abstract
Nigeria has changed in diverse sectors such as education, politics, agriculture, health, technology
and so forth in view of development and modernisation across these sectors. Consequently, the
diverse structure of Nigeria’ s federalism is discussed in terms of the various development plans
put forward by successive governments. This paper particularly noted the various institutional
and special libraries as contributing to these strides with a responsibility of developing a literate
community of its patrons. Some of the roles that libraries play in the development of Nigeria
have been buttressed through various writers relayed in this paper. The work concludes that there
is no development or modernisation in practical terms without impacting on people directly,
which has the major reason libraries channel their services toward people of all careers and
background.
