On the other hand, 63.1% of users have told that the library has been very efficient in obtaining information retrieval skills. The results of the research indicates that "the self-learning" (trial and error) (51.4%) was the most important factor in increasing the users' ability on having availability to the information literacy skills. 84% of the users with the high information literacy have known the effectiveness of the library in responding to the information requirements. In addition, the most important instructional priority for the users' information literacy is the familiarity with the electronic references (73%).
