It also considered whether the personnel's ICT skills competence is related to their method of ICT skills acquisition.

A questionnaire tagged ICTSQ with a Cronbach alpha measure of 0.91 was used to collect data. Two research questions were raised and one hypothesis was formulated for the study. The data collected were analysed using descriptive statistics of frequency counts. percentages, mean scores and Standard deviation. Inferential statistics of Pearson correlation was used to analyse data for the hypothesis. The result showed that library personnel have acquired basic ICT skills for using the Internet. Computer and e mail, however, they lacked skills for using advanced web- based ICT packages for web page design. troubleshooting and project management. Moreover, there was no significant relationship found between the ICT skills level and methods of ICT skills acquisition(r= 165. P >0.05). The study made recommendations based on the findings of the study. | ||
