This is the survey of students of standard 11th of 08 Kendriya Vidyalaya of Lucknow. 6 00 questionnaires were administered out of which 526 questionnaires were received. This result clearly shows that Hs students access the library with the prime purpose to read books. Lastly, majority of the respondents have good perceptions towards library services and activities. They even believe that library can be a substitute to classroom learning . The results indicate that environment of the library, library services-activities, the behavior of the librarian promote the library use and the prominent obstacles to efficient library use are non-availability of the book noise in the library. This study would be of use for both the students as well as working professionals of the HS schools. Students might get to understand their library collection and services better and the librarians will get an opportunity to understand their clientele better which will in turn help enhancing the library resources and services.
