Welcome to the School of Library and Information Science
We offer an ALA accredited masters degree designed to meet individual needs, including the non-thesis MSLS degree or the MA degree with either a thesis or with a specialty track option. We serve a large distance learning community with a number of DL course alternatives. Program options include certification for school media specialists. Opportunities for doctoral studies with an emphasis in LIS are also available within our College.
We are located on the University of Kentucky Lexington campus in the heart of Bluegrass country. The School's new home is the recently renovated space on the third floor of the Lucille Little Fine Arts Library Building where you will find our administrative and faculty offices, three state-of-the-art smart classrooms, and a comfortable student lounge area. We also occupy several areas on the fifth floor of the King Library Building which houses the McConnell Center for the Study of Children's Literature and the Center for Applied Information Technology (CAIT). More details on our facilities are available - check us out!
To arrange a site visit, contact our Student Affairs Officer, Mr. Will Buntin. We look forward to seeing you!
