Abstract: 

 The patterns of scientific communication among users of three research centres in Samaru, Kaduna, and Vom, all in the northern part of Nigeria were studied at various times between 1977 and 1979 Two types of questionnaire were distributed in the pursuit of the study. One set of the questionnaire was distributed to the Users i.e. the researchers of the three libraries while the second set of the questionnaire was given to the librarians of the three research libraries. Appropriate library records and files were studied; interviews were conducted with the librarians as well as the researchers. Chapter II was devoted to the methodology of the study, while Chapter III was basically on the review of the related literature. The history of some of the research libraries in the Northern part of the country was briefly traced in chapter,IV. 
The analysis and interpretation of the data were done in chapters V, and VI„ It was observed that suitable records were not adequately kept in almost all the libraries as regards to statistics in relation to selective Dissemination of information. Enough emphases were not placed on bibliographic citations activities in Kaduna and Vom research centres respectively. An overall observation was that researchers generally tend to shy away from the librarians and information scientists that are supposed to work closely with them in solving their individual research information problems. The study concludes that methods by which the libraries; namely the Institute of Agricultural Research Samaru, the Nigerian Institute of Veterinary Research, Vom, and the Nigerian Institute for Trypanosomiasis Research, Kaduna, respectively provide the current awareness services need rectification if the services are to be effective in the individual research work. On the basis of the above observations, suggestions are offered at the end of the study to facilitate better current awareness.
