For the most part the implications of "offic e automation" are only beginning to be felt amon g educational users . In order to take advantage o f the potentials for increased productivity in th e administrative, academic, and student areas, carefu l attention must be given to the planning process . The challenge of office automation in universitie s is similar to its counterparts in other areas : makin g the educational professional - whethe r administrator, dean, research professional or studen t - more effective in creating simulations of idea s for internal and external use and providing suppor t for making short and long range decisions .
