EMAIL UTILIZATION BY UNIVERSITY EMPLOYEES

The use of technology, such as e-mail and the
Internet, has grown in importance in many workplaces.
This is especially true in academic workplaces as the
use of computers and technology has become ubiquitous
in today s academic environment. However, despite the
proliferation of electronic communication, little
research has been done to examine the effect that
email communication and job satisfaction have on the
higher education community overall. The present work
explores these factors and also investigates how
email usage varies across different types of
campuses. Furthermore the book examines how email
usage varies across professional versus support
staff. Overall, this work helps to clarify and
address the role that email plays in the workplace
behavior and attitudes of higher education employees.
It is a must read for all administrative-level
employees who wish to understand how today s main
instrument for communication (email) impacts both
administrative and non-administrative employees and
their level of job satisfaction in the academic
environment.
