Abstract

The use of mobile technology has gained the attention of librarians because it enhances and promotes dynamic library service delivery. Unfortunately, library personnel in colleges of education are reluctant to adopt mobile technology for day to day operations which has resulted to low level of mobile technology adoption. Mobile technology adoption may be attributed to some factors or predictors including characteristics of the individual potential adopter and the characteristics of the organization where the potential adopter is. This study adopted the survey research design. The population of the study consisted of 234 library personnel in public colleges of education libraries, South-West Nigeria. All 234 library personnel participated in the study by total enumeration. A self-structured and validated questionnaire was used for data collection. Data were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Findings showed that individual characteristics had no significant influence on mobile technology adoption R2 = 0.00 t(-.0.20) p > 0.05, ß = -.01) while there was a significant positive influence of organisational characteristics on mobile technology adoption R2 = 0.10, t(4.752), p < 0>
