摘要：This study was mainly conducted to empirically investigate the determinants of e-library end users acceptanceand use in academic libraries. The introduction of new information and communication technologies in libraries during thelast two decades has altogether changed the concepts of libraries where library patrons need not necessarily go to the libraryphysically since the library services and resources are no longer confined to the walls of the physical library. However, forthese e-library services to be utilized effectively and efficiently, library end users must accept and use them. The study hadapplied the SO-UTAUT (Services Oriented Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology) technology acceptancemodel which is appropriate in a library context. In this paper, we assess the acceptance and use of e-library services inacademic libraries of the different universities and identify the determinant factors that affect the acceptance and use of elibraryservices in academic libraries.
