“…Pujari (2018) quoting Glister (1997, p. 290) defines DIL as, “a set of skills to access the Internet; find, manage and edit digital information; join communications; and otherwise engage with an online information and communication network.” According to Khan (2020), it is an aspect of literacy that overtly reflects the activities through, which individuals build perceptible connotations using digital technologies. List (2019) describes DIL as a series of interrelated skills or competencies required for success in the digital environment.…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to assess the level of digital information literacy (DIL) skill and use of electronic resources by humanities graduate students at Kenneth Dike Library, University of Ibadan, Nigeria. Design/methodology/approach This paper uses the survey research design and 200 graduate students from the 12 departments that made up the Faculty of Arts in the University of Ibadan participated in the study. A self-devised structured questionnaire was used as instrument for data collection. A pilot questionnaire was first sent to a small random sample of the respondents, with feedback used to fine-tune the final questionnaire. Respondents were requested to rate their level of proficiency in the use of digital devices, web-based tasks, information finding, evaluation and utilisation of available e-resources and challenges encountered. Ethical consideration of informed consent, institutional permission, confidentiality and anonymity of participants was strictly followed. Data collected were analysed and result presented using descriptive statistics including frequencies, percentage, mean and inferential statistics such as regression analysis and Pearson’s product moment correlation coefficient were used to test the research question and hypothesis, respectively. Findings Humanities graduate students at the University of Ibadan possessed high level of DIL skills in respect of digital devices usage, web-based tasks, information finding and evaluation, but low in e-resources utilisation. This study identified inadequate knowledge of e-resources availability, irregular internet access, inadequate training on e-resources utilisation, inadequate staff assistance, lack of continuity in e-resources subscription and paucity of local contents in the e-resources as main challenges encountered by graduate students in the use of e-resources. To ensure that those who can most benefit from e-resources utilisation are not further marginalised, this study recommends that active steps should be taken to increase e-resources awareness, regular internet access, training/support, continuity of e-resources subscription and increased local content so that all may benefit from the opportunities of the information age. Originality/value This paper has demonstrated that DIL skills can enhance effective utilisation of e-resources if users have adequate knowledge of e-resources availability, regular internet access, adequate training and assistance on e-resources utilisation, continuity in database subscription and adequate local contents e-resources.

“…The word 'cleft' means split or issured. Cleft lip and palate (CL/P) can occur in isolation or in combination as syndromes due to chromosomal aberrations (Pujari et al, 2018). The term developmental disturbances refers to an abnormality that occurs in the early stage of intrauterine life (Harsha and Brundha, 2017).…”

Cleft lip or the palate is the congenital birth defect with which is characterised by complete or partial cleft lip or palate. The congenital cleft involving the facial structures may vary from trace of notching of the lip to a complete non fusion of lip and the palate. This study was done to determine the incidence of cleft lip and palate. It is a single centered retrospective study. Data was collected from the patient record system used in a private dental institution and following parameters such as gender, type of cleft lip and palate, unilateral or bilateral was recorded. 86000 patient details were analysed between June 2019 to March 2020 out of which 74 patients who fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria were included in the study. The data was statistically analysed using SPSS software. In this study, it was observed that cleft lip was most commonly seen in males and cleft palate in females. Unilateral cleft lip is common in both males and females. Incomplete cleft palate is more common followed by complete cleft palate. Orofacial defects are most commonly seen at the time of birth.
