This speaks to the quality of program we offer our MLS students. The accreditation includes SLIM's distance education program. In addition to its on-campus program SLIM currently offers the MLS degree in Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, and Oregon. In its notification letter to the university, the COA noted the SLIM faculty's diversity and research productivity. The library studies program at ESU is built from the theory that being a librarian is much more than knowing how to work with books.
Librarians are information professionals and advocates for the people they serve.
This requires an understanding of how a variety of people go about meeting their information needs according to how they learn, how they communicate, and their unique backgrounds. At SLIM, the emphasis is on customer service, on being proactive in diagnosis of information needs, and on creating innovative solutions to increase the value of the library or information center for others.
