This paper deals with the management of computer systems used in educational institutions. Experiences are drawn from the use of the DEC 10 system at the University of Illinois. The management of a computer facility is divided into three areas. The first area, general upkeep, relates to providing sign-ons, storage, and computer time for everyone. The second area is the collecting and maintaining of information on available programs. The last area is concerned with providing easy operation and use of the computer. Appendices include a list of DEC 10 programs for secondary education and a ROUTER program which provides access to any of the DEC 10 programs. (DAG)
