The study adopted a quantitative approach and employed the case study method. The respondents consisted of 1,885 first-year students across two faculties with a sample size of 320, which were selected using the systematic sampling technique. The self-developed questionnaire was then distributed among the respondents. Out of 320, 266 students responded to the questionnaire, which produced a good response rate of 83%. The collected data were analysed using frequency and percentages and presented in tables and charts. The results revealed that a substantive number of first-year students never attended training on library use, including high school, public, college or any other academic libraries, prior to their arrival at the university. However, after attending the user-education programmes, they became independent users of the library and its resources, which was of great importance to lifelong learning and, thus, increased the usefulness of the library.29 páginasapplication/pdfCorporación Universitaria Minuto de Dios - UNIMINUTOMedia and information literacy for the public good: UNESCO MILID Yearbook 2023.https://repository.uniminuto.edu/handle/10656/19196Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0)http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessOpen AccessAlfabetización informacionalHabilidades de estudioEduaciónSudáfrica374.0124Information literacyStudy skillsHigher educationSouth AfricaLiteracy (Education) — Case StudiesPrimary EducationAdult Literacy — ResearchEducation and DevelopmentVocational TrainingMedia LiteracyTransforming university students into library users: Influence of user-education programmes on the information and study skills of first-year students in South Africa.Book chapterCapítulo de librohttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_3248engAbubakar, D. & Chollom, K.
