Access. Another study conducted in Nigerian private colleges librarian found out that, the
academic librarians have positive perception towards Open Access information resources
Similarly, Ugwuanyi etl (2013) identified that the perceptions of librarians in colleges of
education in south-east Nigeria towards Open Access to knowledge were positive. The
researchers Ugwuanyi & Ugwaungy (2013) also discovered that most of the librarians did not
understand the concept of Open Access. The current research completed by Tanzanian health
science librarians Lwoga & Quetier (2015) reveals that 75% of the librarians strongly support
promoting OA issues on campus. On the other hand the researcher identified that various
Open Access-related tasks did not translate in to actual action. Thus it is important to assess
the awareness of Botswana private colleges and university academic librarians.
