dc.description.abstractThis study investigated primary school teachers’ attitude and usage of e-library as educational resources in Ilorin Metropolis, Kwara State, Nigeria. A descriptive survey research design was adopted for this study. The population of the study consist of 7,468 primary school teachers in Ilorin Metropolis while the target population was all the public primary school teachers in three local government areas that constitute the metropolis. The sample for the study consisted of three hundred teachers selected from thirty public primary schools in the metropolis. Multistage and simple random sampling techniques were used to select ten teachers each from the public primary schools. A self-constructed questionnaire titled: Teachers Attitude and Use of E-Library Questionnaire (TAUEQ) was used for data collection. TAUEQ was validated for face and content validity while a reliability value of 0.85 was established using Cronbach’s Alpha reliability method. Data collected was analysed using Frequency Count, Simple Percentage and Multiple Analysis of Variance (MANOVA). Results of the findings showed that the attitude of primary school teachers towards e- library as educational resources was positive and teachers’ usage level of e-library as educational resources was low. Also, there was significant difference between teachers’ attitude and usage of e-library as educational resources based on years of teaching experience, level of education and gender. The study recommended, among others, that the managements of public primary schools need to cultivate a school environment that is internet friendly and invest on professional development of teachers by organizing workshop and training in digital acquisition, effective search strategies and techniques which will help to cushion the impact of lack of ICT skills.en_US
