<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:"Georgia","serif"">In response to recent questions/comments:<br>
MLIS degree programs can be very short (36 credits) or somewhat longer (48 credits). The San Jose program is 43 credits, which faculty and employers believe is appropriate for a graduate professional degree with the complexity of LIS. A shorter program is obviously
shorter. The San Jose accelerated program is accelerated for our longer and, we believe, more appropriate length.<br>
The Executive program was cancelled for 2011 and each applicant informed months in advance, with an option of entering the regular program. If someone was missed inadvertently, we do apologize. The program is being completely revised with an employers’ advisory
council for a new cohort beginning in Fall 2012.<br>
In spite of its somewhat longer program and greater breadth, San Jose offers excellent value for money when comparing fees for a program in its entirety. I welcome any individual questions or inquiries.<br>
