Use of information technology in providing efficient library services is inevitable in today's information world. Its implementation causes many challenges for all the stake holders. This study is an attempt to identify challenges faced by university libraries of Pakistan in information technology adoption. To elucidate the research problem, a combination of quantitative and qualitative research methods was used. Valid returned questionnaires (N=52) and recorded interviews of 51 LIS professionals with experience in library automation were analyzed to draw the results. The study determined that 'lack of training opportunities for LIS professionals' and 'lack of IT skills among the majority of LIS professionals' are major challenges to the adaptation of IT. Similarities were found in the results of this study and some previous studies conducted at national and international levels.

The terms electronic trade, electronic trading and electronic commerce are often used interchangeably, and refer to trading transactions conducted using electronic media. Electronic trade is business-to-business transactions in an industrial context, while electronic commerce refers to retailing and the consumer sector as well as mass marketing. The Electronic trade process is defined as a flow of information (documents) exchanged between enterprises and trade-related firms (shipping companies, foreign exchange banks, forwarders, etc.) in the course of implementing a series of export and import procedures. Electronic trading systems exploit information technology to improve the efficiency of communications and/or to alter the nature of inter-organizational transactions. Many studies exist about the adoption of inter-organizational systems (IOS) and electronic data interchange (EDI), but few focus on electronic trade. The literature on exporting companies's electronic trade adoption and implementation, although extensive, consists mainly of exploratory studies focusing on technological characteristics such as barriers, benefits and usage. The purpose of this study is to broaden this perspective by investigating the environmental, organizational and technological drivers of business-to-business e-commerce adoption.

Most of the Information Systems(IS) literature has focused on utilitarian or hedonic Information Technology(IT) to explain and predict IT adoption and use. This study investigates the relationships among individuals' beliefs and intention to use of movie website, which has both utilitarian and hedonic characteristics simultaneously. As a theoretical background, this study adopts Technology Acceptance Model(TAM) and Motivation Theory, in which the former is well-known as a theory of IT adoption and use in IS field, and the latter is famous for a theory of individual's behavior in organizational behavior field. With 153 responses, five hypotheses are tested by using structured equation model. The results show that perceived ease of use positively influences perceived usefulness and perceived enjoyment, and that all individuals' beliefs have a positive impact on intention to use of movie web-site. Based upon the study results, movie website's managers and professionals can plan and conduct their courses of action effectively for users' continuous visits on their operating website.

디지털트랜스포메이션 추진 목표의 주요 내용중 하나인 생산성 향상 및 비용 절감, 의사결정 효율성 향상 등을 위하여 많은 기업들이 디지털 전환을 위한 다양한 IT도입을 추진중에 있다. 정보기술(IT : Information Technology)은 경쟁력을 결정하는 핵심수단이며, 전 세계적으로 IT도입은 매년 증가하고 있다. 금융산업도 수익창출, 업무 효율성 제고, 전략적 경쟁우위 확보 등을 위해 매년 막대한 IT도입이 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 공공⋅기업부문의 IT도입에 대한 연구는 어느 정도 진행된 것에 비하여 금융산업의 특성을 반영한 실증연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 디지털트랜스포메이션 촉진을 위한 금융산업의 IT도입 여부에 영향을 미치는 요인을 도출하고 가중치와 우선순위를 분석하는 것을 목표로 하였다. 금융 IT도입시 요인들의 상대적 우선순위가 각 그룹별로 차이가 존재한다는 점을 데이터 분석을 통하여 밝혀냄으로써 각 그룹별 관점에서 어떤 요인을 우선적으로 고려하여 IT도입을 하여야 하는지에 대한 준거모형으로 활용 할 수 있다는 점에서 그 의의가 있을 것이다.

As information technology rapidly develops and the period required to enter new technology shortens, there emerges a wide variety of alternatives for consumers. When there are many alternatives in the market, users choose after making comparisons. This process of making comparisons is our research key. We established a research model to find a mixed effect that comes from new attitudes to technology adoption and alternative's continuous usage intention. The effect is revealed through a relative attractiveness (RA) factor to explain a user's process of comparison. We empirically test our research model in the new media services, such as mobile TV, web TV, and mobile IPTV. According to our research results, a continuous usage intention of an existing technology is an important factor to explain the adoption of a new technology. So, the contribution of our research is in finding a role for the RA factor in research in new technology adoption.

This study identifies the key determinants and technology innovation adoption type of participation in multimedia UCC services. This research examines how the major factors of perceived usability, self-expression, fun & entertainment, arousal, information sharing, other's positive reputation and interface easiness contribute to participation in multimedia UCC services. A sample survey of internet users was conducted, responses were collected from 629 respondents and consumer streaming data were analyzed. Some of the practical implications of the results are follows. This research have categorized that the types of technology adoption for the participation of UCC were innovator consumer, early adaptor consumer, early majority consumer, and late majority consumer. The results of multiple regression analysis indicated that perceived usability, interface easiness, fun & entertainment, self-expression, arousal, other's positive reputation and type of technology adoption posited a significant effect in multimedia UCC Services.

Despite the growing enthusiasm for the persuasive system like an interactive mirror system little is known about what motivates the customers to try the system and makes customers return repeatedly to the system. The key to understanding persuasive system adoption is the identification of the preconditions needed for the system adoption. Using grounded theory building methodology, we identified the preconditions needed for the system adoption. First, past research regarding users' motivational factors to use the persuasive system is reviewed. Then, research methodology and data analysis are presented. Finally, the study findings and conclusions are presented.

Nuclear energy remains one of the world's major energy sources, making up over 10% of global electricity generation in 2017. Public acceptance of nuclear energy is essential for its adoption. From a practical perspective, it is beneficial to have a simple indicator that can predict the actual adoption of nuclear energy. Based on practical experience, the authors suggest tolerance and self-sufficiency as potential indicators that may predict the adoption of nuclear energy. By evaluating the cross-sectional data of 18 countries in 2013, this research assesses the actual impact of tolerance and self-sufficiency on public acceptance in order to identify the validity of the two variables. The results indicate that the two variables are statistically significant, while public acceptance is insignificant in explaining national adoption of nuclear energy. This may be because tolerance reflects national willingness to accept potential risk, while self-sufficiency explains a government's likelihood of developing non-carbon energy sources.

본 논문에서는 Sussman과 Siegal이 제안한 정보수용모델을 기반으로 유튜브 품질과 유튜버에 대한 신뢰성이 정보의 유용성과 정보수용태도에 어떻게 영향을 미치는지 설명하는 모델을 제안한다. 아울러 본 연구에서는 유튜브 장르가 이 모형 내에서 어떤 조절효과를 갖는지도 살펴본다. 실증분석 결과 전체 장르를 대상으로 조사했을 때 유튜브 품질과 유튜버에 대한 신뢰성 모두가 정보의 유용성에 유의한 영향을 미쳤으며, 이는 다시 정보수용 태도에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 조사되었다. 하지만 정보장르를 대상으로 조사했을 때에는 유튜브 품질만 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났고, 유희장르에서는 유튜버에 대한 신뢰성만 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 조사되었다. 이러한 본 연구의 결과는 유튜브를 정보 제공 도구로 활용하는 비즈니스 전략 수립에 대한 다양한 시사점들을 제공하고 있다.
