Beyond = after or instead? |
GSLIS program objectives |
teaching graduates to anticipate social and technological changes, and promote change to advance the profession; | |||
fostering critical thinking about literature and research in LIS and related fields; | |||
encouraging commitment to high standards of practice, conduct, responsibility, and service; and | |||
preparing for evaluation and development of services. | |||
We still need to teach and learn these things. |
