  • Libraries Address the Challenges Of
    Presented at the 3rd International Conference on Asynchronous Learning Networks, Oct. 5, 1997, blue=external Web link LIBRARIES ADDRESS THE CHALLENGES OF ASYNCHRONOUS LEARNING Joanne Eustis Gail McMillan Director, Planning and Program Review Director, Scholarly Communications Project Information Systems, Virginia Tech University Libraries, Virginia Tech Institutional Context In recent times most institutions of higher education have had to reconsider policies and procedures in the face of closer scrutiny. Traditions such as tenure, shared governance, and the focus on conventional degree programs are being challenged and modified as a result of pressure from governing boards and state legislators. Rising costs and declining budgets demand increased efficiency while changing demographics require programs that are responsive to a more diverse population of learners. The result is that academia is being compelled to operate more like industry in considering the needs of its clients.
