In the study, a virtual survey was conducted of 36 college libraries, 8 of which were home science libraries. The study reveals that 51% of aided and 33% of unaided college libraries provided conventional information services, while 30% and 06% offered nonconventional services, respectively, to their users. There was 93% diversity in the role of information services to provide multiple sources of information, and 96% in the home sciences, food and nutritional arena.
