Determinants ofUserAcceptance of Digital Libraries

Abstract

Using theDecomposed Theory of Planned Behavior this research aims to determine the factors that affect the intentions of teaching staff towards using digital library services. Data are collected from 426 respondents and structural equation modeling is used to analyze the responses. Study results showed that attitude toward use and subjective norm have an important positive effect but perceived behavioral control doesnot have an effect on intention. Another finding is that compatibility is more effective than relative advantage in this context and it is seen that the system's ease of use is more related with perceivedbehavioral control rather than attitude
