| Abstract | This paper reports on the development of a model to improve the understanding of the extent of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system usage in universities. Previous research revealed that university ERP systems are not fully utilized by end-users, resulting in low usage and institutional inefficiencies. This leads to stakeholders particularly students and government pressurizing universities to improve their efficiency and performance. This study therefore attempted to improve ERP system usage by adapting Technology Acceptance Model 2 (TAM2) theoretical model with additional Information Technology (IT) system usage factors of training, management support, perceived behavioral control and technical support. A dataset of 312 full time academics from a University of Technology in South Africa was generated by a survey method to validate the developed research model using Partial Least Square (PLS) analysis technique. The predictive power comparison results showed that the research model better explained 23% of the variability in ERP system usage compared to TAM2 and Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) which explained 3.6% and 5.2% of variability respectively. With the exception of management support, the additional IT system usage factors of training, technical support and perceived behavioral control were found to have a significant relationship with ERP system usage. In addition gender and experience moderated the effect of all additional IT system usage factors on ERP system usage except for the effect of training and perceived behavioral control respectively. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
