History

[edit]

The institution's library was established in 2009. It was set up in the Faculty of Pure & Applied Science before the building was moved to the Faculty of Agriculture with the virtual library brought about in 2012. The main library is at Malete, a reading section at Oke Osi and Ilesha-baruba. The library building was opened to the public in 2020 after it was commissioned and named after President Muhammad Buhari on July 6, 2019.[3] The structure is located in the Kwara State University campus in Malete.[4]
