Abstract:
The article deals with the evaluation of internal noise controlling
strategies implemented in university libraries in Sri Lanka with special
reference to Colombo, Kelaniya and Sri Jayawardanapura. The noise
controlling is a very important factor in effective user services. The study
found that the noise creation could he arisen due to the materials used in
interior fabrication and as well as by reader behaviors. Therefore the
possible noise disturbances could be avoided through proper planning of
interior designing for a user expected noise less library
