To determine the information search strategies used by the undergraduate students in line with Ellis six search strategies, they were asked statements to either agree or disagree. The result revealed the following: 139 (55.6 percent) of the respondents indicated that they used lecturers and colleagues as starting point to obtain academic information; 137 (54.8 percent) of the respondents indicated using references at the back of consulted books (chaining) as a search strategy to source for relevant materials; and 163 (65.2 percent) of the respondents indicated that they browse the library collections to retrieve relevant information materials. Others are: 150 (60.0 percent) indicated using differentiating strategy (selecting among the known sources by noting the distinctions of characteristics and value of the information); 143 (57.2 percent) indicated using monitoring (using the card catalogues, lists on library notice boards); and 126 (50.4 percent) indicated using extracting strategy I.e. using the library card catalogue as a search strategy to retrieve relevant materials. The study revealed that undergraduate students used the following search strategies when seeking information: starting (using lecturers or colleagues), browsing library collections on the shelves, chaining (using references at the end of books), differentiating, monitoring and extracting (using the card catalogue).
