The research aims to identify the obstacles facing the application of electronic management in our university libraries, including the central library of the University of Baghdad and the central library of Al-Mustansiriya University, the research sample, as they are among the main libraries that used electronic technologies in managing some of their work and in providing their services, and they have a website via the Internet. The research relied on the case study method to identify the obstacles by visiting the two libraries, interviewing their managers and employees responsible for the departments, and answering inquiries about the obstacles that prevent the application of electronic management in order to identify them and find appropriate solutions to overcome these obstacles. The research reached several conclusions related to the theoretical and practical aspects, including: There are obstacles to applying electronic management in the two libraries: organizational and technical obstacles, all of which are real, and human and financial obstacles, some of which are not real. Among the most important organizational obstacles to implementing electronic management in the two libraries are: the lack of proper planning for the conversion process towards electronic management, the routine of administrative procedures in the library, and the lack of awareness among employees about the transition towards electronic management.
