This paper presents the status regarding the use of Electronic Resources by the post graduate
students and Research scholars of VIT. The data reveals the extent of usefulness and the
problems faced by the users in accessing the Electronic resources. The institute is providing
online databases, online journals, distance education, CD & DVD ROM, Audio & Video
cassettes etc. The use of these facilities is not satisfactory. The study shows that a majority
of students use online journals for preparing project reports and for listing references only.
The use of electronic resources for research purpose is very less. Measures should be
taken to improve the use of electronic services.
