Sustainable development has been defined as the development that meets the social, economic and technological needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. A good well - equipped library is a prerequisite for the intellectual, moral, and spiritual advancement and elevation of an individual right from childhood. It is an indispensable element of the absolute well - being of the citizens and that of the nation at large. To attain sustainable development, the role of libraries, and particularly academic libraries, cannot be ignored hence the need to discuss this topic at this time.
