“…In the Botswana context, the issues of behaviour and attitudes towards records are not clearly defined and can only be gleaned and inferred from previous studies. In Botswana, studies done by Mooketsi and Leonard (2013); Bwalya et al (2015); Mosweu, Bwalya and Mutshewa (2016) report non-use of information systems, lack of user guidelines, information technology infrastructure, training on the system, user resistance and information preferences in the organisation they studied. These studies conducted in Botswana focused on user behaviour and the level of acceptance of electronic records.…”

“…In contrast, the records system was fully utilised in municipalities that expressed trust in the system. Furthermore, Mooketsi and Leonard (2013) found that in Lands Boards, employees in Botswana found the records system disappointing and frustrating; therefore, there was low usage of this system, which means few records were captured or even not captured at all in the system.…”

Sound records management has always been hailed to achieve organisational efficiency and effectiveness, and to set goals. However, electronic records management remains a challenge to many organisations despite the importance of records to organisations. Given the persisting challenges, the study examined Botswana's electronic records management issues in three selected parastatals. This study investigated the value of records (behaviour and attitudes) as a reflection of information culture in these parastatals and the state of electronic records creation and capture in selected parastatals. An information culture assessment framework was used to investigate the behaviour and attitudes of employees towards records management. The study adopted a mixed method approach, in which both qualitative and quantitative approaches were applied. One hundred and one employees from the three selected parastatals participated in an online survey and were sampled through listed-based random sampling. In the mixed methods approach, the survey plays an exploratory role. Five interviews were conducted with records managers and chief executive officers’ representatives. The target population was 139 respondents; 106 employees from the three parastatals participated. A questionnaire link was sent to 133 randomly selected participants; 101 responded to the survey. Five interviews were conducted out of the six targeted respondents. The study's findings revealed policies and procedures for records creation were not followed. Employees did not know the proper metadata to capture. Furthermore, the findings revealed that different behaviours and attitudes were given to records management. The attitudes and behaviour manifested in the following use and non-use of electronic records, willingness to carry out records management procedures, willingness to participate in records management training, treating records as everybody's responsibility and senior management support. The study recommends that organisations should carry out in-house training and develop strategies that ensure that employees are well conversed with records management processes and procedures to change their behaviour and attitudes towards records.

Does a land information system resolve land conflicts?

The absence of accurate land management arguably results in land conflicts as well as uncontrolled land use and conversion. The adoption of a land information system (LIS) might remedy such problems. Our study in rural Eastern Indonesia found that land management is a complex system involving various stakeholders, including the side of the local people and the side of the government. To some extent, an LIS is already in place but the actualised affordances it offers are limited because the system is hindered by numerous conflicts over uncertified land.
