The researcher’s interest to study LCs as the solution to enhanced information access and collaboration space shortage was further cemented by the researcher’s observation of the increase in the number of students who have no library borrowing records. Whilst working at the Reference desk clearing students at the end of each semester, the researcher observed that the number of students with no borrowing records was increasing. These students argued that there was no need for them to use the library when they can get all their reading materials from the available e-resources and the internet. These students also indicated that the library does not allow them to have any discussions and so they would rather use e-resources while seated at some area where they are free to discuss with their peers without restrictions.
