Criteria for Review 3.6

The institution holds, or provides access to, information resources sufficient in scope, quality, currency, and kind to support its academic offerings and the scholarship of its members.  For on-campus students and students enrolled at a distance, physical and information resources, services, and information technology facilities are sufficient in scope and kind to support and maintain the level and kind of education offered. These resources, services and facilities are consistent with the institution's purposes, and are appropriate, sufficient, and sustainable.

Information technology provides opportunities to revolutionize and improve the way we teach, learn, and conduct university business.  CSU, Chico has enjoyed a history of leadership in the effective use of academic technology.  We will continue to distinguish ourselves by building an electronic learning community that links knowledge, curricula, students, faculty and staff.
