Further, origin of Internet and the development of World Wide Web (WWW) have opened up new vista for communication of scholarly information and helping Libraries to create and maintain information through Libraries’ Websites, Blogs to its users. As a result, more institutions are equipped themselves with new technology and their employees are challenged to be advanced with new technologies to complete their tasks. However, employees are sometimes express less enthusiastic response to adopt new technologies, even if it may helpful to complete their tasks. At this stage, Self-efficacy plays important role in mediating the impact of computer anxiety on the use of computer and related technologies.
