The present study aimed to explore the obstacles hindering the integration of information and communication technology (ICT) in public higher education institutions in Libya during the first semester of the academic year (2019/2020). The researcher selected a purposive sample consisting of 325 faculty members who work at Elmergib University in Al-Khums, Libya. He developed a five-point Likert questionnaire and distributed the questionnaire forms to the members of the chosen sample. However, 311 forms were retrieved. 301 forms are considered valid for analysis. The program that was used for the analysis of quantitative data is the SPSS program. It was found that faculty members at Libyan public higher education institutions don’t have good capabilities in using ICT. It was found that there are several obstacles hindering the ICT integration in public higher education in Libya. Such obstacles include: the inadequacy of the professional development and training courses provided to those faculty members. They include: facing problems when accessing internet, and the poor quality of the provided training. They include: showing resistance to employing technology-based teaching methods, and showing poor attention to such integration by the concerned ministry.
