This article examines the integration of internet facilities into the management systems of private

libraries in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja. It highlights the transformative impact of internet

access on library operations, including improved cataloging, resource sharing, and user services.

The study employs a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative data from library usage

statistics with qualitative insights from interviews with library staff and users. Findings reveal that

internet integration enhances the efficiency and accessibility of library resources, fostering a more

connected and user-friendly environment. Recommendations are made for further investment in

digital infrastructure and training to maximize the benefits of internet facilities in private libraries.
