    Transparency and credibility: presenting corporate publications online
    RUWOLDT, MARGARET ( 2004-07)

Corporate publications such as strategic plans and annual reports can demonstrate an organisation's stability, prospects for growth and overall quality. Nevertheless, a comparative study in June 2004 found that most Australian universities do a poor job of presenting their strategic plans, annual reports and other corporate publications online. The study comprised a literature review followed by visits to 40 Australian university web sites.
