It studied the faculty and students’ perceptions on 1) the level of provision, and 2) the level of satisfaction, in relation to collection, personnel, financial support, services and use, physical facilities, and technological advancement. Along these areas, the 3) significant relationship between the level of provision and level of satisfaction were also studied. The 4) significant differences in the areas of concern when respondents were grouped by institution were also studied. Respondents were chosen through purposive sampling. The descriptive statistics through utilizing questionnaires was interpreted through The Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) software, with the correlation determined through The Spearman Rank Order Correlation Coefficient and Two-Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA).
