The University of Ibadan has the most reviews with 2,301, giving it a 4.4-star rating. That is the largest review count among the 25 libraries listed here, so its rating is based on a much bigger sample than most others. ### Which library has the highest rating in Ibadan? American Corner Ibadan has the highest rating at 4.5 stars, but that comes from only 70 reviews. The University of Ibadan, at 4.4 stars from 2,301 reviews, has a lower rating but a far larger base of feedback. ### How many libraries are listed for Ibadan? There are 25 libraries listed in Ibadan, Oyo State, in this list. The top five by our ordering include the University of Ibadan, The Booksellers Limited, the polytechnic ibadan, American Corner Ibadan, and Kenneth Dike Library UI. ### How should I read the ratings when review counts are low? A rating based on a small number of reviews, like American Corner Ibadan's 4.5 from 70 reviews, is less reliable than one from a larger sample. The University of Ibadan's 4.4 from 2,301 reviews gives a more solid picture of public opinion. Always check the review count alongside the rating. ### How is this list ordered? The list is ordered by a combination of factors, including the rating, the number of reviews, and how recently those reviews were left. Businesses with more reviews and higher ratings tend to appear higher, but the exact weighting is not public. The data here is drawn from Google reviews as of the time of compilation. ## About this data Ranked is a directory: it is not the businesses it lists and does not act for them. Ratings and review counts are Google's, quoted as sourced; the order, the composite score and the counts above are Ranked's own. Methodology: https://ranked.ng/how-we-rank.
