The educational system of the igbaja community is gradually deteriorating. The schools textbooks are archaic and even the mode of teaching are obsolete. During survey of the community, it was discovered that there was an existing e library, this gave I and my colleagues much joy believing there is hope for this community, but after taking a survey we found out that it is not functioning since the day it was commissioned that was over 5 years ago. There is a need for a functioning community e-library for personal research and advanced learning, which is a concern for me and my fellow corps member Israel and John. There is no access to internet facilities within the community at large to improve research among students and to help develop them during home works, examinations and personal research. We also noticed that students cannot operate computer or write e-based test and there is an abandoned e-library in the community.There is popular saying that we are the product of what we see and hear, seeing aid learning and help what we hear settles down and process conceived information’s faster. The use of ICT to transform rural areas will enhance the quality and performances of educational services. This visual learning will help the students and teachers to learn fast and teach well, thereby amplify existing curriculum.
After meeting with different stake holders started soliciting for funds and equipment, it was not easy thou, but God was involved. Now the Library have started functioning with a lot of advanced equipment inside the library .Akinola Ayobami Steven is currently the first librarian of the Igbaja ultra modern E - Library
