Treffer: Leveraging Bring Your Own Device for Mobility of Library Reference Services: The Nigerian Perspective.

Libraries in Nigeria are increasingly affected by alternative sources of information that provide stiff competition to library reference services. Reference librarians need to adopt a bring your own device (BYOD) strategy to remain relevant. The article explores the practical application of BYOD principles and strategies to the mobility of library reference services in Nigeria. It explores mobile phones' role in Nigerian libraries, identifies likely challenges in implementing BYOD strategies, and makes recommendations. Reference librarians in Nigeria can adopt BYOD strategies to guarantee the survival and continuous growth of libraries. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
