Abstract

 This paper seeks to investigate the challenges that hinder the adoption of ICT in libraries with special attention to HILs in developing countries. The adoption of ICT has revolutionized service provision in libraries and their general information management systems. This has transformed most services to digital: e­database (e­resources). e­catalogs,e­library and use of archiving technology like DSpace. Today, within the developing world, most libraries are moving towards transforming their existing traditional library services to digital systems ­ allowing them to Tap and benefit from the vast advantages of ICT, for example, operation costs reduction, increased efficiency, an on­the­fly availability of information. Even with such numerous benefits, most Higher Institutions of Learning (HILs) in developing countries still lag behind on adoption of ICT in their library service.

Keywords: ICT; Library Information Management (LIM); Developing Countries; Higher Institutions of Learning (HIL).
