This study deals with an Analysis of University Library Websites in selected Universities located in Tamil Nadu in the Context of Five Laws of Library Science. The study is conducted on four universities namely as Madurai Kamarajar University, The Mother Teresa Women’s University and Manonmaniam Sundaranar University and Tamil Nadu Fisheries University, especially the details given about the university library. We selected some of the library services as criteria under each law, and analysed the information given in selected library websites as per the fulfilment of five laws. Even though it may see as simple it needs clear understanding of websites and its contents and application of law of library science. The present study found that most of the University websites of the library are found to be adhere with the five laws of library science. Although the world is moving towards a cloud based borderless library, still the university level libraries are in intermediate level in moving towards that. Due to the technical advancement in IT and ICT technologies, the cost of implementing a web based library portal for each university and college level library is a cost effective one.
