Abstract

This study seeks to examine the use of electronic journals (e-journals) and print journals (p-journals) by the management students of Chetana's R.K. Institute of Management and Research (CRKIMR). From this study, it was found that most of the students refer to both e-journals and p-journals from the library and computer centre. The main aims of consulting these journals are for retrieving information for presentations, seminars and for updating knowledge. However, this study also reveals several inherent problems especially with the use of e-journals.
