Included in this bibliography are studies that investigate the role of community colleges as community educators and providers of lifelong learning opportunities; the impact of community education programs on community identity and engagement; the administrative track between continuing education leadership and the community college presidency; and the effects of student characteristics on services offered in continuing education departments.
