Abstract: In order for agricultural economists to perform their work and research effectively, it is necessary that they have adequate reference materials, book, journals, documents, and statistical series readily accessible to them. The service of providing these reference and statistical materials to agricultural economists in an academic environment is generally provided by one of two means, through an agricultural economics reference room or through the services of the library system on campus. The purpose of this research was to determine the current status of these agricultural economics departmental libraries and in particular their levels of funding, staffing, and the services provided to the agricultural economics departments by these facilities.
