The changing environment in higher education requires different approaches to be taken to providing support services. This may result in the development of outsourced shared services, the convergence of many different student-facing services or the development of more active collaborative networks. This collection of essays considers the changing context and broad principles affecting the ways in which we need to manage and provide services and gives case studies of changes that have already taken place.
