Abstract

The rapid advancement of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has transformed the role of academic libraries, making electronic resources (e-resources) an essential component of teaching, learning, and research. This study investigates the awareness, usage patterns, satisfaction levels, and challenges faced by law students in accessing e-resources at SGT University, Gurugram. A structured questionnaire was administered to students and faculty members of the Faculty of Law, yielding a 62.5% response rate. Users identified benefits such as 24/7 availability, time-saving features, and ease of searching, while challenges included slow internet connectivity, limited computer terminals, and the need for better awareness programs. The study concludes that e-resources have significantly enhanced legal education and research, but further initiatives such as training workshops, improved infrastructure, and expanded subscriptions are required to maximize their utilization.
