Abstract

This study seeks to identify the domain of the freshmen students of the nursing faculty of the CRU of Veraguas, about the processes of searching, accessing and used of information in the library.   This is a descriptive investigation of exploratory type and transversal cut, it*s developed with 44 students, and a 22 questions questionnaire was used.   The results show there are still several factors that prevent students from using the documentary resource of the library. In this sense, students indicate the existence of formal training programs; In addition, the library's documentary collection can be consulted from their homes, mainly the commercial databases. Therefore, the training programs for library users must be reviewed adapted to management and use of the information in electronic format, with the goal of forming self-sufficient users.
