Abstract
The study examines the library professionals’ awareness and use of ICT tools among library professionals
of five university libraries in Kerala. The analyses revealed that the library professionals in
the university libraries in Kerala have relatively average level of knowledge in using various ICT
related tools in libraries. Library professionals working in CUSAT are more conversant compared to
others. It is also found that age is not an important factor in determining library professionals’
awareness in ICT tools and e-resources. A good number of professionals indicated that the main
constraint in the application of ICT in libraries is inadequate training in ICT applications.
