INTRODUCTION: Anna Centenary Library, shortly called as ACL, is the one of the largest public libraries in Asia, situated at Chennai, India. The library consisting totally 9 floors and various sections in subject wise including Computer Science, Languages, Law & Economics, Pure Sciences, Medicine and more. At present the library is functioning as reference library for public. Currently the fifth floor has the separate section for books on Medicine. The medicine books section of the library contains books on different disciplines like Cardiology, Pediatrics, and Ophthalmology etc. Ophthalmology is the branch of medicine that deals with physiology, anatomy, disease and diagnosis of the eye. A specialist in medical and surgical eye problems are called as ophthalmologist. The word Ophthalmology is came from the Greek words Ophthalmos and Logia, which are means respectively The Eye and Study of. Ophthalmology literally means “the science of eyes”. In modern world, Ophthalmology plays a vital role in the universe of medicine by research wise and also commercially. In India, to become an Ophthalmologist, after completing MBBS degree, post-graduation in ophthalmology is required. The degrees are Doctor of Medicine (MD), Master of Surgery (MS), Diploma in Ophthalmic Medicine and Surgery (DOMS), and Diplomat of National Board (DNB). The concurrent training and work experience is in the form of a junior residency at a medical college, eye hospital or institution under the supervision of experienced faculty. Further work experience in form of fellowship, registrar or senior resident refines the skills of these eye surgeons. All India Ophthalmological Society (AIOS) and various state levels ophthalmological societies (like TNOA) hold regular conferences and actively promote continuing medical education (CME). ACL is a public library which has notable collections of medical books and attracts professional doctors, medical students to the library for their higher studies, professional development and research purpose. The major eye care hospitals and Ophthalmic institutions are there near by the library like Government Ophthalmology Hospital Egmore, Madras Medical College, Maxivision Eye Hospital, MN Eye Hospital, Udhi Eye Clinic, Agarwal Eye Hospital, Sankara Nethralaya, Vasan Eye Care, Ramachandra Hospital and various private eye clinics. It supports to bring the Ophthalmology books readers to the library. The total number of medical books available in the section is near 25000 approximately. As per user register the average regular users in the section per day is 50. This study analyzing the usage of Ophthalmology books by the medical professionals including students, doctors, research scholars. 1 USAGE OF OPHTHALMOLOGY BOOKS AMONG MEDICAL............. Vol.2 | Issue.9 | July. 2014 REVIEW OF LITERATURE Herma C. H. Coumou and Frans J. Meijman (2006) studied that How do primary care physicians seek answers to clinical questions?. From their study we could observed that the primary care physicians seek answers to only a limited number of questions about which they first consult colleagues and paper sources. This practice has basically not changed over the years despite the enormous increase in and better accessibility to electronic information sources. One of the major obstacles is the time it takes to search for information. Other difficulties primary care physicians experience are related to formulating an appropriate search question, finding an optimal search strategy, and interpreting the evidence found. Some studies have been done on the supporting role of a clinical librarian in general practice. We can observed from this study that their information needs are mostly heeded in their clinical library, instead of visiting public library. Fred B. Wood et al (2000) discussed in their article titled Public library consumer health information pilot project: results of a National Library of Medicine evaluation regarding the role of public libraries in providing health information to the public and to generate information, a National Library of Medicine's pilot project that would assist NLM and the National Network of Libraries of Medicine (NN/LM) in learning how best to work with public libraries in the future. Three regional medical libraries (RMLs), eight resource libraries, and forty-one public libraries or library systems from nine states and the District of Columbia were selected for participation. From the result of the study we came to know that few of the participating public libraries had health information centers (although health information was perceived as a top-ten or top-five topic of interest to patrons). The results also highlighted the importance of building an evaluation component into projects like this one from the outset, to assure that objectives were met and that evaluative information was available on a timely basis, as was the case here. A A Verhoeven et al (1995) analyzed that the use of information sources by family physicians. The study reveals that family physicians used colleagues most often as information sources, followed by journals and books. This outcome corresponded with results in other medical professions. Several factors influenced the use of information sources by family physicians, including the physical, functional, and intellectual accessibility of the source; the physician's age and participation by the physician in research or education. The paper studied suggested ways to improve information gathering in the areas of computerization, education, library organization, and journal articles. Dee and Blazek (1993) studied the information needs of the rural physicians in Central Florida. In this small scale study we can observed that the rural physicians need immediate high quality answers to patient care questions. The authors recommend that the National Library of Medicine (NLM) develop a computerized expert system containing concise, synthesized medical information to answer patient care questions while the patient is in the clinic. Thanuskodi (2012) public libraries are essential since they improve literacy, stimulate imagination and expand personal horizons. They also inform and empower citizens, enable access to a common cultural heritage and support education at all levels. Also, a positive relationship is observed between public library and literacy level, which in turn, contributes to increase in economic productivity. Extensive studies were undertaken to study the role of public libraries in information society, value of services offered and use of the resources. Assessing the effectiveness of libraries is the order of the day. In order to keep up with the current trends, libraries must constantly evaluate its functions. Evaluating through user perspective is result based. Because users are the ultimate beneficiaries and can suggest effective measures to improve the existing facilities in libraries. This study evaluates library services and gives suggestions for the improvement of district central libraries in Tamilnadu, India. Sarah Wilkie and Russel Pask (2012) evaluated a pilot project commissioned by the UK Society of Chief Librarians and supported and funded by Arts Council England that the internet users believes library staff more than other providers of online support and information, and public library staff are second to doctors in terms of the trust placed in them by the information seekers. This study indicates the importance of public libraries and their services are authendicated information sources. Thanuskodi (2010) the internet is also making substantial inroads in patient care and dissemination of health care information. It is changing the way health sciences professionals obtain information. They use the internet and electronic resources to do things like accessing medical records, providing remote patient care
