Purpose
This study aims to examine the factors influencing undergraduates' intention to use university digital libraries by integrating the information system success model and affinity theory.
Design/methodology/approach
Based on the 265 valid responses gathered through a survey, the structural equation modelling (SEM) technique was employed to test the research model and hypotheses.
Findings
The results indicated that system quality and digital libraries (DLs)' affinity significantly affect undergraduates' user satisfaction. However, information quality and service quality does not. User satisfaction has significant impact on undergraduates' intention to use university digital libraries.
Practical implications
Librarians and service providers should focus on enhancing the system quality of digital library and DLs' affinity, to improve the undergraduates' user satisfaction, further motivating undergraduates to use university digital libraries.
Originality/value
The information system success model is enriched by affinity as an additional construct.

大学生使用大学数字图书馆意愿的驱动因素研究:亲和力理论作为信息系统成功模型的附加结构
目的
本研究旨在通过整合信息系统成功模型和亲和力理论,考察影响大学生使用大学数字图书馆意愿的因素。
设计/方法/途径
基于通过调查收集的 265 份有效答复,采用结构方程模型 (SEM) 技术来检验研究模型和假设。
发现
结果表明,系统质量和数字图书馆 (DL) 的亲和力显着影响本科生的用户满意度。但是,信息质量和服务质量没有关系。用户满意度对大学生使用大学数字图书馆的意愿有显着影响。
实际影响
图书馆员和服务商应着力提升数字图书馆的系统质量和数字图书馆的亲和力,提高大学生的用户满意度,进一步激发大学生使用高校数字图书馆的积极性。
原创性/价值
亲和力作为附加结构丰富了信息系统成功模型。
