Computer Self-Efficacy's Impact on the Use of E-Resources: Perceptions of UG and PG Students

Researchers composed this study to find out the impact of computer self-efficacy on the use of e-resources through students' perspectives. A convenient sampling technique is used. A total of 110 questionnaires were distributed to the students who were present on the college premises. Out of 110, only 103 questionnaires were received back and only 99 were found eligible for analysis which was (90%) of the total distributed questionnaire. A widely used Likert scale (Five Point) was adopted to get the opinions of the respondents where 1 denotes highest point and 5 refers to the least in favor of the statement. Researchers found that most respondents were nicely aware of the e-resources and visited the library daily. The furthermost part of the study elaborates on the findings such as mostly using e-resources to fulfill their current curriculum and experimental needs which are impacted by computer selfefficacy. Findings of this study hugely inspire the college administration to take steps towards increasing digital literacy and computer self-efficacy among the students by conducting special sessions. Different perspectives about e-resources will help the library to recoganise its resources and services. Also, it will help the authority redesign their efforts to give the best knowledge to their students.
