Accreditation standards, policies, and procedures

2008 Standards for Accreditation of Master's Programs in Library and Information Studies [pdf version]

Programs with review visits scheduled for fall 2010 and later must begin reporting to the updated Standards with their 2008 or 2009 Biennial Narrative Report. Programs with review visits in fall 2010 or later must use the 2008 Standards when developing their Program Presentations.

1992 Standards for Accreditation of Master's Programs in Library and Information Studies

Programs with review visits scheduled to occur in spring 2008 through spring 2010 may continue reporting to the 1992 Standards in their required reports, e.g., Biennial Narrative Reports, Special Reports, or Progress Reports, and their Program Presentations until the conclusion of their comprehensive reviews.  Any of those programs that wish to report to the 2008 Standards rather than the 1992 Standards may do so, making clear in their reporting which version of the Standards they are addressing.
