- Administrative Integration of Information Resources and Services in Universities in Canada and the United States. Howard, Helen A. Administrative Organization Audiovisual Aids College Libraries Computers Information Services Library Research Publications Telecommunications Eight Canadian and U.S. universities that have combined several information services under one administrator were studied. These services include the library and one or more other information handling functions such as audiovisual services, technical aids to instruction, computing services, telecommunications, bookstore, artistic properties, university press, and printing services. The main objective was to determine to what extent new organizational models exist, the configuration of these models, and whether there is any trend or pattern developing. Rationales for such combined services are discussed, along with the benefits and problems of multiple information services and the characteristics of their administrators. (Author/LS)
