INTRODUCTION
Library is collection of written printed or other graphic or visual material organized and maintained for reading, studying and consultation. It is also define as a collection of books, pamphlet, etc. Kept for reading and consultation; especially, such a collection angled to facilitate reference as by classification and indexing.


PROBLEMS OF LIBRARIES IN NIGERIA
Lack of planning at the national level: The federal government has had on a number of occasion expert advice on the setting up a national library at Lagos. Lack of backing from an energetic viable professional body. Since its inauguration in 1962, the Nigeria Library Association appears to have achieved very little professionals.
Lack of suitable reading materials geared to the taste of people and commensurate with their level of education state poverty which hinders library expansion.
Though poor world standard, one is safe in saying that library provision in the country at present is not good enough, other things remaining equal.

 
SOLUTION OF THE PROBLEMS
Lack of planning as one of problems facing Nigerian library development: The federal government should be able to establish national library headquarters in all the state. Lack of backing from on energetic viable professional body as problem of Nigeria library development.
Government should employ qualified professional librarians that will carryout library routines effectively and simultaneously and also motivate librarians to make other people to have interest in the discipline of librarianship. However, institutions of different types should try as much as possible to provide adequate fund which will be used in purchasing needed reading materials in library which will make the library users to meet up with their information need.
