9、s identified the desire of many organizations, including universities, to use their websites for so many information delivery functions as a primary factor that affects the usability of their websites (Duncan and Hollida
10、y, 2008, Ginige and Murugesan, 2001 and Constantine and Lockwood, 2001). Website architecture factors that may affect websi</p><p> those with inappropriate (irrelevant) and meager or excessive content</

13、t;/p><p> The categorization mirrors web content and architecture challenges which have led to the growth of the literature on web usability. Much research has been done in this regard in Europe and America, w
14、ith efforts being intensified in the Pacific and Asia. Unfortunately, researches on the use of websites by African universities, including those in Nigeria, are meager and have resulted in very little understanding among
15、 African universities on how to develop and use their websites for contemporary i</p><p> The main objective of this paper is to report the results of a study carried out to assess the contents and architec
16、ture of Nigerian universities'websites as determinant factors of their usability. This study is significant, not only because of the importance of websites as primary contact points for website users, but also becaus
17、e of the important role relevant web content and appropriate architecture play in meeting users'information needs in contemporary times.</p><p> Addressing Web Contents</p><p> Using Infor
18、mation Needs Theory</p><p> The literature has proposed a number of factors that may be used to assess website architecture, including HTML size, download time, image size, number of images, homepage size,
19、number and sizes of fonts, navigation tools, number of colours and screen length (e.g. AlHeyasat, 2005; Yoo and Jin, 2004). However, only web link (citation) research has been formalized and used to measure the relevance
20、 of website content. It is not clear if the literature has established any other definite method for a</p><p> Since websites have been described as analogue of books in web link and citation research (Smit
21、h,2004); it follows that website contents can also be evaluated for their quality and relevance in the same way as book contents are evaluated in citation and collection management using users' information needs as t
22、he yardstick. Vallimtjana and Sabate (2008) and Knight-Davis and Sung (2009) described how citation analysis can be used for content analysis and to evaluate the impact of academic works. B</p><p> The lite
23、rature on information needs can thus be adopted to develop a framework for research on website content. Research on information needs has established that people's status, social involvements, assignments, economic a
24、nd health needs determine the situations that arise in the course of their lives and what they need to ease, resolve and address such situations (Dutta, 2009; Beautyman and Shenton, 2009; Shenton, 2007; Petric, 2006; Ojo
25、koh and Asaolu, 2005; Utulu, 2004; Adenuga, 2004; Loughr</p><p> It follows that an assessment of the relevance and quality of university websites requires the identification of the information needs of web
26、site users. This is echoed by Petric (2006), who postulated that websites play important roles in providing the information people need to meet the goals they set in their everyday life. Kebede (2004) supported this with

61、 used for designing Nigerian universities websites showed that they may have used a number which we may consider a bit high.</p><p> The study outcome also indicated that Nigerian universities websites may
62、not be able to meet their users' information needs due to the short fall in their contents. Major official and everyday life information contents were not available in majority of the websites. Crucial everyday life
63、information contents on health care, social life/groups, campus guide, sources of fund and host community were not contained in majority of the websites. Having relevant and adequate information that meets web u</p>

71、的因素可能會影響網(wǎng)站的可用性,這些因素包括屏幕長度、網(wǎng)頁的顏色和圖像,字體和后設標簽的網(wǎng)站描述和網(wǎng)站關鍵詞的可用性,其中(Yoo和Jin,2004;Ling和Schaik,2006)。大多數(shù)組織傾向于創(chuàng)建和顯示各種內(nèi)容的方式,使他們與利益相關者的溝通潛力能夠最大化。但是,如果做得不恰當,它將使瀏覽這些網(wǎng)站變的更加復雜。文學作品中的各種嘗試為通過面向研究組織來部署他們的大學的分類網(wǎng)站提供了一個平臺。例如,(Yoo和Jin2004)認為是網(wǎng)

81、。</p><p> 由此可見,大學網(wǎng)站的相關性和質(zhì)量的評估需要有信息需求的網(wǎng)站用戶的識別。這是由Petric(2006年)推測出,為網(wǎng)站提供信息的人扮演著很重要的角色,需要滿足他們在日常生活的目標和需求。Kebede(2004)支持與他的位置,任務的人參與產(chǎn)生需要的內(nèi)容,可以檢索網(wǎng)站。理解和執(zhí)行任務需要的事實,數(shù)據(jù)和想法可以檢索網(wǎng)站。文獻表明,管理,學術和非學術的,學生和研究人員的內(nèi)部利益相關者都是大學網(wǎng)站的
