    This study examined the influence of computer self-efficacy and computer playfulness on motivation to use e-learning systems by library and information science undergraduates of selected private universities, Oyo state. A structured questionnaire was adopted as the instrument for data collection. The population of the study is made up of one-hundred and twenty-nine (129) undergraduate selected from private universities in Oyo state. Total enumeration was adopted to select the participants for this study.
