The Student Industrial Work Experience Scheme (SIWES) is a program designed
to provide students with practical work experience and exposure in their chosen
fields of study. It acts as a bridge between academic learning and the professional
world, allowing students to apply theoretical knowledge in real-world work
settings. This introduction offers an overview of SIWES and its importance in
shaping the future careers of students.

1.2 Brief History of SIWES

SIWES was established in Nigeria in 1973 as a collaborative initiative between the
Federal Government, employers, and higher education institutions. The program is
managed by the National Universities Commission (NUC) in collaboration with
the Industrial Training Fund (ITF), National Board for Technical Education
(NBTE), and other relevant bodies.
The primary objective of SIWES is to enhance students' understanding of industry
practices, develop their technical skills, and expose them to the realities of the
workplace. It aims to produce well-rounded graduates who possess practical
experience, professionalism, and a deep understanding of their chosen fields.
SIWES is mandatory for students in tertiary institutions such as universities,
polytechnics, and colleges of education that offer programs in science, engineering,
technology, medicine, agriculture, and social sciences. The program typically lasts
from six months to one year, during which students undertake supervised work
placements in relevant organizations.
During the SIWES program, students are exposed to practical tasks, projects, and
challenges that allow them to apply their academic knowledge, gain industry-
specific skills, and develop important soft skills like teamwork, communication,
and problem-solving. The program also provides opportunities for students to
establish professional networks, explore career paths, and gain insights into the
demands and expectations of the job market.

In conclusion, SIWES serves as a valuable platform for students to gain practical

experience, acquire industry-specific skills, and bridge the gap between academia
and the workplace. Its history and ongoing implementation underscore its
importance in shaping the future careers of students and contributing to the overall
development of the nation.

1.3 Background Knowledge of SIWES

 CHAPTER TWO

2.1 BRIEF HISTORY OF ADEYEMI FEDRAL UNIVERSITY OF

EDUCATION LIBRARY (BAB'S FAFUNWA LIBRARY)

Adeyemi Federal University of Education, originally a College of Education, was

established to provide training and education for future teachers and educational
administrators. The library was created as an integral part of the institution,
supporting academic programs and fostering a culture of learning and research.

The library at Adeyemi Federal University of Education (AFUED), is located in

Ondo State, Nigeria, has a rich history aligned with the institution's mission to
produce skilled educators. Originally established as part of Adeyemi College of
Education in 1964, the library grew alongside the college, which became one of
Nigeria's premier institutions for teacher education. In 2015, when the college
attained university status and was renamed Adeyemi Federal University of
Education, the library expanded its resources and services to support this higher
academic level.

The AFUED library has developed a robust collection, including educational

resources, research materials, and digital collections. Its mission is to support the
academic needs of both staff and students, emphasizing teacher training and
education. The library provides access to books, journals, databases, and other
resources across disciplines, with a special focus on education.

In addition to its collections, the library has become a center for research, learning,
and community engagement. It also embraces digital advancements, offering
online resources to facilitate modern academic needs and ensuring accessibility for
a broad range of users.
2.2 VISION AND MISSION STATEMENT

MISSION STATEMENT

The mission of Adeyemi Federal University of Education Library is to support the

educational, research, and cultural objectives of the university by providing access
to diverse resources, promoting information literacy, and fostering a conducive
learning environment for students, faculty, and staff.

VISION STATEMENT

The vision of the library is to become a leading academic resource center that
empowers lifelong learning, drives innovative research, and enhances teaching and
scholarship through comprehensive and accessible library services.
 2.3 MANAGEMENT STRUCTURE OF ADEYEMI FEDRAL
UNIVERSITY OF EDUCATION LIBRARY

2.4 LIBRARIES IN NIGERIA AND MARKET/ SERVICE SITUATION

In Nigeria due to poor funding, lack of infrastructure and other factors affecting libraries
growth, the library in its current situation is grossly underfunded. The poor funding has
resulted in the library inability to execute its fundamental duties of providing access to
information resources and other research work.

There is no doubt that organization is underfunded. Overtime, the regular source of

funding for the library through budgetary allocation has failed to address the financial
needs of the library.
2.5 THE ECONOMIC ENVIROMENT IN WHICH THE LIBRARY
OPERATES

The economic environment in which the Adeyemi Federal University of Education

Library operates is influenced by various factors at local, national, and global
levels. Here are key aspects:

1. Funding from Government and University Administration

As a federally funded institution, the library’s primary source of funding is the

Nigerian government. Budget allocations for education and library resources
depend on national economic conditions, which directly affect the library's ability
to acquire new resources, maintain facilities, and upgrade technology.

Changes in government priorities or budget cuts can lead to limited resources for
library acquisitions, subscriptions, and staff development.

2. Economic Challenges in Nigeria

Nigeria faces economic issues such as inflation, currency devaluation, and

fluctuating oil prices, which impact overall budget allocations for education. The
rising cost of imported books, journals, and digital subscriptions due to exchange
rate fluctuations can limit access to international resources.

Economic instability may also impact students' financial ability to afford education
and related services, affecting library attendance and usage patterns.

3. Technological Advancements and Digital Resources

As the library seeks to provide digital resources and electronic databases, it is

influenced by the global market for academic publications and database
subscriptions. Economic constraints can limit access to expensive journals and
databases, creating a need to seek more affordable or open-access resources.

4. External Support and Partnerships

To supplement limited funding, academic libraries often seek partnerships with

organizations, NGOs, and international educational bodies. Grants or donations
from these partnerships can help libraries expand resources, improve infrastructure,
and invest in professional development.

5. Institutional Demands and Student Population

The library’s budget and resources are also affected by the growing student
population and their educational demands. An increase in students requires
expanded collections, more seating, and enhanced facilities, which can strain
financial resources, especially in an economic environment with limited funding
increases.

6. Shift Toward Open Access and Alternative Resources

Due to economic pressures, the library may increasingly turn to open-access

resources and institutional repositories. By providing free or affordable access to
research publications, open-access platforms help mitigate the challenges of
limited budgets and improve access to academic content.

The economic environment requires the library to balance resource constraints

with the growing demand for academic support and digital resources, often leading
to strategic planning in sourcing and budgeting.

DONE

1. Circulation section
2 .Acquisitions Section
3. Serials Section
4. Cataloguing and classification

5. Reference section

CIRCULATION SECTION

This is a section where charging and discharging of books and other materials are

done. It is always the first section to meet when entering the library. This section is

responsible for keeping daily/weekly statistics of users, and books. Statistics are

done, to know the number of books charged and discharged, to know the number

of users who uses the library weekly, to know the students who uses the library

more frequently, to know the number of books not returned, e.t.c. This section is

also responsible for the registration of students into the library. In the same vein,

this section of the library also perform the daily shelving and shelve reading.
 In this section, I learnt and engaged myself in the daily shelving and shelve

reading, I also learnt how to register the students manually with card. The

circulation section is also vested with the responsibility of taking hourly counts of

the library users. The table below shows the library hourly count:

ACQUISITION SECTION

In some libraries, this section is categorized under Technical division, the

acquisition section and the cataloguing and classification section, works

congruently and their work is behind the scene, they put up every efforts to make

sure that what they are processing behind-the-scene worth it when it get to the
users. This section is responsible for the selection and acquisition of materials, they

devise various means to get information to the library. This section register all new

materials into the accession list which contain information like: name of material,

author, date of publication, method of acquisition and price. Then this section will

assign new accession numbers to the newly acquired material. By so doing, it be

very easy to make the statistic of the total information material the library has.

From this section, the processing of the new materials begins, before it is sent to

the Cataloguing and Classification section for further processing, then unto the

circulation section, before the materials goes to its rightful place that it belongs to

in the library. This section also process daily newspapers before it is sent to the

Serials Section.

In this section, I have learnt the various methods of acquisition of library materials,

they include: Legal deposit, Gift/Donations, Membership, Bequeathing, Exchange,

Endowment e.t.c. This section also make use of stamp on the information

materials, the materials include: round stamp, accession stamp, edges stamp,

security stamp, tetfund stamp e.t.c.

 SERIAL SECTION

This section is responsible for the orderly arrangement and processing of serials

materials, such as newspapers, journals, past questions papers e.t.c. This section

keep the records of the titles of the library journals

The library also has “DISPLAY RACK” that is used to display new and current

newspapers and journals for easy accessibilities. In this section, there exists thesis

and desertations, which contains project works that can be consulted by the post-

graduate students.

CATALOGUING AND CLASSIFICATION SECTION

This is a section of the library that processes the various information materials

acquired by the library, for easy accessibility of the users, This sections receive

information resources, processes, catalogue and classify materials. After the

processing, it will be sent to the various sections they belonged to, materials of the

same subject are brought together using the class mark. AFUAD Library adopt the

Library of Congress Classification Scheme for the classification of their materials.

This section also keep and maintain the card cabinet, this section also label the

spines of information materials with the classification number.

I was able to learn how to catalogue and classify some library materials, I was

thought the process of receiving information materials from various sections which

needs to be processed, sections like reference, circulation and acquisition section,

and after the overall process, we send the information materials back to the

sections needed. I put into practice, cataloguing some materials received from the

acquisition section and also some other information materials, and after

cataloguing, the materials was sent to the circulation section. I also classified some

materials in some class of LC, such as Mathematics, which is Class QA and

Physics. I was taught how to apply the standards set by ANGLO AMERICAN

CATALOGUING RULES, to cataloguing of information materials. AFUAD

LIBRARY uses Descriptive Cataloguing.

A library classification is a system of knowledge organization by which library

resources are arranged and ordered systematically. The National library make use

of the Library Of Congress Classification Scheme. The Library of Congress

Classification (LCC) is a system of library classification developed by the Library

of Congress in the United States, which can be used for shelving books in a library.

It is used by most research and academic libraries.

 REFERENCE SECTION

This section is related to arranging and making available for use various reference

materials, the materials includes: Encyclopedias, Manuals, Dictionaries, Almanac,

e.t.c. Materials in this section are not meant to be borrowed out but kept in the

library for the very best use of the clienteles. This section is also responsible for

treating Referral and Introductory letter of any school or library to the library. This

section is also charged with the responsibility of inter-library loan activities.

In this section I learnt the various types of reference materials, and how they are

consulted, I also treated some introductory letters from project students of other

institution who made the library their case study, their introductory letter was

treated to grant them the ability to share their questionnaires and conduct

interview.
