  abstract = {In recent years, smartphones have surpassed the importance of one’s shadow. When an individual is functioning without a smartphone, he feels uneasy, as if something is missing or frightened of losing contact with friends and family. The study showed how UG and PG Library and Information Science students at Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University used intelligent devices. The study’s objectives were met through the use of an online questionnaire. The results reveal that every respondent has a smartphone, and the most popular app among students is WhatsApp. According to the findings,
respondents believe that they have difficulty solving study-related problems if Internet connectivity is unavailable. In addition, some respondents think that mobile phones distract them and impact their health. The findings of this study show that while mobile devices are beneficial for studying these days, they should be used with parental supervision. },
