The researcher used the descriptive research method by determining the colleges of users found in the charge cards of books with multiple copies and tabulating them according to their colleges and from what library the books were located. Thus, describing the pattern of usage of books with multiple copies.

Based on the findings of the study, the researcher highly recommends that other factors for determining the pattern of researching and borrowing of library users be identified and use other methods or research instruments to study location as a determinant. According to student's response from the survey, proximity of the library from their college is one of the strongest factor affecting their research behavior.
