Abstract：Opinion mining towards blockchain technology adoption for accessing digital library resources Purpose Blockchain technology is a distributed and decentralized public digital ledgerwhich is employed to save dynamic transaction data and static records across several computers so that each record could not be modified retroactively without the collusion of the network and alteration of all subsequent blocksRecentlyit has become immensely popular in digital resource sharing in different research areas such as healthcaresmart citiescryptocurrency and librariesSince the current eLibrary systems are vulnerable to issues such as unauthorized accessplagiarismetcthere is a lack of access control system that can efficiently address these issuesDesignmethodologyapproach The authors designed a conceptual model for evaluating the usersintention in the use of blockchain-based digital librarieswhich can facilitate the resource organization and provide additional security to interactive processes between usersTo conduct our surveythe authors devised and shared two versionsEnglish and Chineseamong 298 participantsMoreover7 PhD students participated in the pre-testing of the questioner designThe authors analyzed the demographic data using the Jamovi software and SmartPLS in order to generate the path modelingFindings This study revealed that blockchain technology adaption in eLibraries is essential for enhancing the quality of servicesinfrastructure and resources for librariesThe studys results show that optimisminformativenessperceived usefulnessperceived ease of useattitude and intention to use blockchain technology for accessing digital resources in librariesOriginalityvalue This study contributes to the adoption of blockchain technology in the digital libraryTo the best of the authorsknowledgethis work is the first empirical attempt to provide a new perspective of developing digital libraries based on security policiesThis model shows the underpinning knowledge to manage digital resourceswhich can facilitate the design phases and enhance the management costs in eLibrariesThe application of blockchain technology mentioned in this article can enhance its security in digital librariessuch as preventing unauthorized access and plagiarismThis article refers to the application of blockchain technologyBTand the Internet of ThingsIoTBlockchain technology can provide a safedecentralized and unable to tampering data storage methodwhich is very useful for data exchange and storage of the Internet of Things
