Program Overview

There is a critical need for School Library Media Specialists in the tri-state area – people who enjoy working with students, teachers and administrators along the technological frontiers of today’s information society. To meet this need, the Palmer School of Library and Information Science offers a 36-credit Master’s degree in Library and Information Science in School Library Media.

As a graduate of this program you will be empowered as an educational change agent – helping students and teachers alike become efficient and discriminating users of the often bewildering resources of print and digital information now available.

Courses for the School Library Media specialization are offered in the blended learning and online formats, which combines the convenience of online learning with the richness of face-to-face classroom instruction. Ideal for busy working professionals, students can attend classes on their own schedule virtually anywhere there is an Internet connection, while still reaping the benefits of meeting in person with professors and other professionals.

The master’s program is accredited by the American Library Association and prepares students for Initial New York State Certification as a School Library Media Specialist. After three years of successful employment in the field, professional certification can be requested from New York State.
