Totally 41 valid questionnaires and 4 interview responses were gathered and used for analysis. Although the results of the research may not be valid for the whole population, because the response rate was rather small, compared with other similar researches and considering homogeneity of population, some general conclusions were made. The results of this research are compared with the results of similar researches of national minority library users from Croatia, England and Sweden.

The results reveal which are the most needed library information resources, the preferable language of library information service, satisfaction with library, frequency of library use etc. The results are presented by utilizing descriptive statistics. The value and originality of this study lays in the fact that this is the first attempt to do the empirical research on the topic of user needs of any national minority library users in Serbia. Therefore, this research can be perceived as a pilot project.
