2002 Primary Reading List (for Executives and Administrators)

The following reading list is drawn primarily from EDUCAUSE publications that we believe provide valuable information on the top ten IT–related challenges identified by the 2002 EDUCAUSE Current Issues Survey. A primary reading that captures the heart of each issue is suggested, followed by recommended supplementary readings that also inform the topic. This recommended reading list is a work in progress; please send your suggestions for other salient literature on these topics to contribute@educause.edu.
