摘要

摘要讲师对信息资源的有效利用是大学教育成果的决定因素之一。为了发挥最佳作用，讲师在履行职责时会利用数字化信息资源。大学图书馆肩负着组织和提供讲师所需信息资源的责任。因此，本研究调查了数字化图书馆信息资源的可用性对尼日利亚南部六所联邦大学讲师使用信息资源的影响。用于数据收集的工具是DLIRA（r=0.73）和UIR（r=0.64）量表。使用描述性统计、Pearson乘积矩相关性和0.05显著性水平的多元回归对数据进行分析。结果表明，数字化图书馆信息资源在信息资源使用方面的可用性影响了尼日利亚南部联邦大学讲师对信息资源的使用。因此，大学图书馆的管理需要加大力度，将大多数纸质资源转换为数字化格式，以增加讲师对图书馆资源的使用。

Availability and Use of Digitised Library Information Resources by Lecturers in Federal University Libraries in Southern Nigeria

Abstract Effective use of information resources by lecturers is one of the determinants of university education outcomes. To function optimally, lecturers utilise digitised information resources in their duties. University libraries are saddled with the responsibility of organising and providing lecturers’ needed information resources. This study, therefore, investigated the influence of digitised library information resources availability on the use of information resources by lecturers in six federal universities in Southern Nigeria. Instruments used for data collection were the DLIRA (r = 0.73) and UIR (r = 0.64) scales. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, the Pearson product moment correlation, and multiple regressions at .05 level of significance. The results showed that digitised library information resources availability on the use of information resources influenced the use of information resources by lecturers in the federal universities in Southern Nigeria. Thus, there is a need for the management of university libraries to intensify efforts at converting most of the paper-based resources to digitised formats for increased use of library resources by lecturers.
