Abstract
Three books explore the pervasiveness of technology, particularly within ac ademe. They focus on the meaning of digital culture and its applications to societal initiatives, including higher education; the need for thoughtful and conscious integration of technology in the planning, organization, and management of higher education's core activities; and the utility of inform ation technology and its role in institutional assessment and accountabilit y. Higher education must meet the challenge of technology to affirm, enhanc e, and advance its mission.
