Student administration, human resources, financials, campus portal, electronic learning, library and research and other campus IT applications provide integral business services to the university and its constituents. For example, library management systems are used to logically organize massive digital collections, seamlessly integrate with existing campus systems, accommodate remote 24x7 patron access and provide shared consortia resources. They also house university intellectual property, such as faculty research, that must be published and shared in order to receive needed grant money. In addition, universities rely on electronic information such as online journals, electronic newspapers, databases, books and other research information as critical resources for students and professors alike.
