摘要

摘要大学一直在花钱购买信息和通信技术，以实现在线图书馆研究支持平台。如果这些收购能够有效地用于其目的，那么这些收购是合理的。本研究采用定量研究方法，调查加纳一所大学本科生使用在线研究支持平台的情况。研究结果表明，尽管有在线图书馆研究支持平台可供使用，但本科生对这些平台的利用不足。基于研究结果的建议是，大学图书馆应该考虑新的方式来提高人们的意识，鼓励使用在线图书馆研究支持平台。

The Use of Online Research Support Platforms among Undergraduate Students at the Kumasi Technical University in Ghana

Abstract Universities have been spending money on the acquisition of information and communication technologies (ICTs) to enable online library research support platforms. Such acquisitions can be justified if they are effectively utilized for what they are intended for. A quantitative research approach was employed in the study to investigate the use of online research support platforms among undergraduate students at a university in Ghana. The results suggest that, even though there are online library research support platforms available for use, they are underutilized by undergraduates. The recommendation based on the results is that the university’s library should consider new ways of creating awareness to encourage the use of online library research support platforms.
