Abstract

The development of ICT, particularly in the field of wireless and mobile technologies led educational institutions to develop library applications. Therefore, the present study tends to develop a model for predicting the behavioural intention of subjects to use library applications. Participants included 218 students using the mobile library application. Data was collected by using a questionnaire. Data were analysed by partial least squares structural equation modelling using SmartPLS. As the results showed, habit was positively and significantly effective on perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness. Effort expectation was positively and significantly effective on perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness. System quality was positively and significantly effective on perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness. Perceived ease of use was positively and significantly effective on perceived usefulness, user satisfaction and application use behavioural intention. Perceived usefulness was positively and significantly effective on user satisfaction and application use behavioural intention.
