The University Librarian, Dr. Helen Emasealu, set up a Taskforce in the thesis unit with a mandate to provide accurate and, therefore, reliable documentation of thesis materials for easy access of information by students and other library users. The Taskforce comprises staffs of the Thesis unit, students of the Department of Library and Information Science, Uniport, and students of other Institutions on industrial attachment.

7. Statistics of the patronage of library resources showed a decrease from 255 users in the week ended 18th February 2022 to 121 users in the week ending 25th February 2022. This drop in library patronage is attributable to the current warning strike embarked on by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).
