    (Book of Abstracts, Annual Research Symposium 2014, 2014) Rathnayaka, R.M.D.P.; Saman Kumara, G.M.
    It is necessary for University Libraries (UL) to adhere to Knowledge Organization Library Standards (KOLS) to render an efficient service to their users. Though these KOLS are adopted in UL, inaccurate use of these KOLS have given rise to technical many issues. The causes of these inaccuracies are non-familiarly with these KOLS and the general recklessness on the part of the UL staff. Therefore this research was undertaken to identify KOLS which different universities adopt and problems associated with the use of those standards. The Population of the study was professional and non-professional library staff of UL in Sri Lanka. The sample consisted of 3 Librarians, 9 Senior and Assistant Librarians, 9 Library Assistants and 9 Library Attendants and Laborers in 3 universities.
