What is IT-Organisation in Hochschulen und ihren Bibliotheken about?

The great importance of information technology for scientific disciplines and central infrastructure units of universities is beyond question. The article provides a historical overview of the beginnings and further development of IT in German universities since the 1950s, with a special focus on libraries and data centers. It appears that different phases of technology development have led to heterogeneous organizational IT structures within universities. In the last 20 years, DFG and HRK are therefore recommending a clarification of responsibilities within IT governance and an implementation of a CIO model. As various studies are showing, this has so far only partially succeeded. Nowadays, the challenge for many universities is still to libertate the IT organization from its reactive role and move it to an active driver for digital transformation.
