This is because the content of websites is supposed to be dynamic and episodic analysis assists in overcoming their weaknesses and challenges which ensure improved quality that meets web ranking metrics. Therefore, employing qualitative research approach and case study methodology, 42 (25%) Nigerian university library websites were purposely and proportionately selected for the study using stratified sampling technique. Using a modified checklist of Mehta and Trivedi (2015) prepared from quality models and WCAG, data was collected directly from the websites. The data collected was analyzed using ATLAS for Window and Mac Qualitative Data Analysis Software. The result of the data analysis shows a significant number of the selected Nigerian university library websites are well structured and possessed basic information, there are still many features and information that are absent in many of the websites. Also many of the websites are small and limited in scope, with most consisting of a single webpage or two to four interlinked pages, presenting their messages up-front instead of encouraging navigation through the sites. The research recommends among others the need for Nigerian university libraries, while improving their websites, to significant make the website more develop and complex by introducing index page on their websites","PeriodicalId":44095,"journal":{"name":"South African Journal of Information Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2020-12-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77352688","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among the types of personal information stored, articles ranked first followed by text books. Google is found to be the most used source of information for PIM followed by attachments received through mails. Sending information to self is the most suitable method of storing personal information.
