Master of Library and Information Science


The master of library and information science (M.L.I.S.) program provides professional education for a wide variety of service and management careers in libraries, information agencies, the information industry, and in business, industry, government, research, and similar environments where information is a vital resource. The curriculum is based on present and probable future characteristics of library and information professions, emphasizing the essential knowledge, skill, and professional attitude needed by beginning professionals in these fields. The program offers concentrations in several areas including contemporary public, technical, or administrative services in libraries of all kinds, for information users of all ages and types; and information retrieval, system design, and data management services in information-dependent organizations of all kinds.
