This study investigated the information-seeking behaviour of African students at the International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM) library. The study attempted to understand students’ awareness of services available to them in the library, and the main sources of information consulted by them. It also investigated students’ perceptions of the library effect on their information-seeking behaviour. Twenty students were interviewed. Participants were found to be aware of the services available to them in the library. However, only one respondent appeared to be using interlibrary loan. Respondents also were found to be relying heavily on library books, periodicals, the Internet, and textbooks for course works, project or research papers. All of them agreed that the library has changed their information-seeking behaviour.
