St. John's Division of Library and Information Science: Invitation to Fcous Session

INVITATION TO AN ALA ACCREDITATION FOCUS GROUP

The Division of Library and Information Science (DLIS) at St. John’s University is preparing for a periodic reaccreditation review by the American Library Association (ALA). The opinions of our students and recent alumni (last five years) and the past, present and potential employers of our graduates are critical to the quality of our ALA presentation and the future direction of our program.

This is an opportunity for you to tell us what we are doing well and what we should be doing, where you will be heard clearly. A transcript will be provided to the faculty and the ALA visiting team.

Times have been scheduled on each of our three campuses. You are welcome to attend whichever session fits your schedule as long as you attend a group meeting that corresponds with your relationship (student, recent alumni, or employer).

Please RSVP by the date specified for the session you wish to attend. This will permit us to provide you with a written briefing about the program in advance of the focus group and order the food. You may RSVP by e-mail to DLIS@stjohns.edu or by contacting the DLIS office at (718) 990-6209.
