The study investigated the adoption footprints of Koha in university libraries in Pakistan by using the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model. The UTAUT model suggests that the decision to use technology is influenced by performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence and facilitating conditions. The study used a survey questionnaire to collect data from 250 librarians working in libraries and analysed the results using a quantitative research approach. The findings of the study revealed that performance expectancy, effort expectancy and facilitating conditions positively influenced the intention to adopt Koha. Interestingly, social influence had no significant effect on the adoption of Koha, indicating that the opinions of others did not play a significant role in the decision to adopt Koha. Personal innovativeness had a negative impact on the behavioural intention of librarians to use Koha. Personal innovativeness refers to the willingness of individuals to adopt new technology, and this finding suggests that librarians who are less willing to adopt new technology may be less probably to adopt Koha. The study also found that the significance of information and communication technology (ICT) background among librarians in Pakistan was low. This can be attributed to inadequate perceived social influence and facilitating conditions towards adopting new information technology (IT) solutions. To increase the use of Koha among librarians, the study recommends that libraries improve social influence and provide better conditions for adoption. This study has important implications for library managers and policymakers who are seeking to enhance the use of open-source library management system (LMS) in university libraries.

Koha 作为图书馆管理系统在巴基斯坦大学图书馆的采用足迹

该研究利用技术接受和使用统一理论 (UTAUT) 模型调查了 Koha 在巴基斯坦大学图书馆的采用足迹。UTAUT 模型表明，使用技术的决策受到绩效预期、努力预期、社会影响和便利条件的影响。该研究使用调查问卷收集了 250 名在图书馆工作的图书馆员的数据，并使用定量研究方法对结果进行了分析。研究结果表明，绩效预期、努力预期和便利条件对采用 Koha 的意愿产生积极影响。有趣的是，社会影响力对Koha的收养没有显着影响，这表明其他人的意见在收养Koha的决定中并没有起到显着的作用。个人创新能力对图书馆员使用 Koha 的行为意图产生负面影响。个人创新性是指个人采用新技术的意愿，这一发现表明不太愿意采用新技术的图书馆员可能不太可能采用 Koha。研究还发现，巴基斯坦图书馆员的信息和通信技术（ICT）背景重要性较低。这可以归因于社会影响力和采用新信息技术 (IT) 解决方案的便利条件不足。为了增加图书馆员对 Koha 的使用，该研究建议图书馆提高社会影响力并为采用提供更好的条件。这项研究对于寻求加强大学图书馆开源图书馆管理系统 (LMS) 使用的图书馆管理者和政策制定者具有重要意义。
