This paper presents the results of an empirical survey study conducted on people living in North Cyprus, aiming to measure awareness of e-government practices. Brief information regarding e-government, awareness and adoption concepts, and current situation in North Cyprus is also provided. A particular survey is designed based on preliminary pre-testing methods and academic supervision. This study aims to contribute to a literature that is lacking studies regarding awareness of e-government in small islands. As Cyprus is a Small Island Developing State (SID) member and has the last divided capital, revealing the main reasons for awareness, usage and trustiness of e-government practices is believed to contribute to the literature.
