I don't know about all y'all, but I earned my library degree in a
non-accelerated program in 20 months... 22 if you count the summer when
I wasn't taking any classes. Granted, I was only working about 20 hours
a week - not full time. But if I spread the courses out over an extra 3
summer terms, I could have managed... So how is this an "accelerated"
program?

Earn Your MLIS Degree in 26 Months! Are you currently working in a
library leadership position and you are ineligible for promotional
opportunities because you don't hold a Master of Library and Information
Science (MLIS) degree? Do you need an accelerated MLIS program that is
focused on leadership, so you don't have to go back to the basics in
order to earn your graduate degree? If this scenario rings true for you
or someone you know, the fully-online Executive MLIS program at the San
Jose State University School of Library and Information Science may be
the solution to achieving your career goals. The Executive MLIS program
is a specialized cohort within the School's ALA-accredited MLIS program.
It is designed for experienced information professionals who do not
currently hold an MLIS degree and would like to study the core
competencies of librarianship from a leadership perspective.
