520 |a This research was conducted to measure the current status of the learning resource centres (LRCs) at the secondary stage students in Sultanate of Oman; to appraise the reading motivations of students at the secondary stage, and to examine the relationship between the learning resource centres and the factors that influence reading motivation among students. This study applied the quantitative survey method to 375 male and female students from grade 11 and 12. The sample for this study was chosen through stratified random sampling. The results tabulated highlight the students' satisfaction at the secondary level with the status of learning resource centres and the availability of facilities inside the LRCs. In this study, the result showed implies that the resources of information in the Learning Resource Centre are available and support the curriculum. The findings in this study indicate that the dimension of staff is one of the most influencing factors for students' satisfaction with the current state of Learning Resource Centres.From the results gathered, there is a need of support for the Internet service and the provision of printers to students and electronic information resources at LRCs. The results of the study indicated that intrinsic reading motivation has a deeper impact on reading motivation among high school students, compared to extrinsic motivation. The findings also revealed that there is a positive relationship between the dimensions of the current state of the learning resource centres and the intrinsic and extrinsic reading motivation. The finding is a new addition in the field of learning resource centres. There is a tendency that the reading motivation among students will be positively impacted by the convenient and comfortable condition of LRCs. The evidence from this study has shown a positive impact on the continuous development of learning resource centres and the importance of employing the right people to manage LRCs, so they can create a harmonious reading community.
