Abstract
This paper attempts to analyse the appraisal of electronic readiness for information
delivery services, utilization, benefits and challenges for development of Museums and
Monuments in Nigeria. Descriptive survey research was adopted for this study; the target
population for the research was 784 museums professionals. Out of six-geopolitical zone
which made up of Nigeria, two-geographical zone of national museum were selected for
random sampling. Total enumeration sampling technique was used for the purpose of
sampling procedure. Findings revealed that appraisal of e-readiness is important to Museum
because of its level of availability and strong predictor on how well a museum can perform in
the service delivery. Hypothesised relationship was tested using Pearson Moment Correlation
Multiple Regression Analysis including Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA).
Results had also shown that there was significant relationship between appraisal of ereadiness
resources, (that is r=597***, N=200, <01). It also means that electronic
information resources service delivery, benefits of using electronic and challenges of using
electronic resources were significant (F(5,194)=32,116; R=.673, R2=.453, Adji.R2=0.439;
R<.05). It implies that museums professionals need to adequately and effectively use
electronic resources, in the course of establishing the significance effect of e-readiness
utilization of service delivery or otherwise. The result substantiated the complimentary roles
of appraisal of e-readiness resources and the benefits of using the available e-resources. The
study had shown that some challenges of using electronic resources had significant effect on
e-readiness. This means that an e-readiness appraisal would provide policy makers with a
detailed scored cad of the r economy' S oompetitiveness reiative to its intenai ana
counterparts.
