Abstract:
There is a dearth of literature on the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in Libyan universities and this paper aims to help address this imbalance by exploring and analyzing how ICTs are used in Libyan universities. Process maps and systems profiling are employed to examine the current and potential uses of ICTs and a new model for assessing ICT utilization in Libyan universities is put forward and applied at the University of Misurata in northern Libya. This innovative approach to assessing ICT deployment in Libya has emerged from initial case study research that will be further developed as other universities in Libya are investigated.
