This study investigated the academic information-seeking behaviours among 100 students from 2 selected senior high schools in Accra metro, through a survey. For each objective, the factors were ranked to identify the factors that students consider as most important to those they consider as least important.
Findings showed that the students considered teachers as the people they feel most comfortable seeking academic information from. Also, using study materials provided by teachers was the most frequently used source for information. The consulting librarian was ranked as the topmost difficulty in seeking information. Nevertheless, the students demonstrate a strong sense of resilience in their information-seeking behaviour.
