Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to assess self-estimated overall and task-specific Information and Communication Technology (ICT) skills of Library and Information Science (LIS) students in Bangladesh. The findings indicate that students’ self-estimated overall computer and internet skills are good. The students perceive that they are good in general computer and internet tasks, but at an average level in advanced computer and internet tasks, and evaluation of internet resources. Moreover, their perceived skills in professional software are below the average level. The male students outperform the female students in almost all types of ICT tasks. The study suggests the LIS schools adopt effective pedagogical methods to improve the higher-level ICT skills of their students.
