2012 CDS Executive Summary Report
Published in January 2013, the summary report provides a brief, high-level summary of some of the most pertinent and interesting findings from the CDS 2012 survey, including trending data from a matched set of CDS 2011 and CDS 2012 participating institutions.
EDUCAUSE researchers presented early findings at the EDUCAUSE 2012 annual conference. View the session video or download the presentation >

* Beginning in 2011, CDS reports and communications use the year in which data were collected and analyzed. While this change results in the appearance of a skipped year, the Core Data Service runs sequentially, with no years skipped.
