The questionnaire reflected six dimensions of quality services, i.e., Reliability, Responsiveness, Assurance, Access, communication and Tangibles. All the closed-ended questions were designed to solicit responses on a five-point Likert scale for both types of respondents to measure perception of service quality. It has been found that central library of North Eastern Hill University is not lacking quality service and there is no significant difference between the perception of research scholars and faculty members.
