Abstract
This study which is based on the
Technological Acceptance Model (TAM), seeks to explore whether
librarians and LIS students
are familiar with the newest technological
innovations and whether they are ready to accept them. The research was
conducted
in Israel during the first and second semesters of
the 2012 academic year and considered two populations: librarians and
LIS
students. Researchers used two questionnaires to
gather data: a personal details questionnaire, and a mobile technology
questionnaire.
On the whole, the current study supported the two
core variables of the TAM (perceived ease of use and usefulness), as
well
as personal innovativeness that may predict
librarians’ and students’ behavioral intention to use mobile services in
the library.
