We are proud to share with you the second edition of our Circle of Learning (COL) newsletter, COL Fall News 2012 (PDF attached), which also appears on the COL web page<http://slismax.sjsu.edu/Campaigns/Redirect.aspx?AB=MainDatabaseall&ProgId=1483&ActId=477&CliId=091109110471564133434C&ContNum=0&Request=redirect&URLIndex=0>. The newsletter highlights some of the academic, professional, and service accomplishments of our COL scholars.

The Circle of Learning (COL) program<http://slismax.sjsu.edu/Campaigns/Redirect.aspx?AB=MainDatabaseall&ProgId=1483&ActId=477&CliId=091109110471564133434C&ContNum=0&Request=redirect&URLIndex=1> is a partnership between the San Jose State University School of Library and Information Science (SJSU SLIS) and the American Indian Library Association (AILA) aimed at supporting American Indian and Alaska Natives who seek to earn their Master of Library and Information Science degrees in a fully online program.

With a three-year grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), 19 SJSU SLIS students<http://slismax.sjsu.edu/Campaigns/Redirect.aspx?AB=MainDatabaseall&ProgId=1483&ActId=477&CliId=091109110471564133434C&ContNum=0&Request=redirect&URLIndex=2> are receiving tuition support, course materials, technology assistance, professional development, conference travel, and professional mentorship from the COL program. Our goal is to increase the number of American Indian and Alaska Native librarians who understand tribal culture and are committed to addressing the challenges faced by libraries serving Native patrons.
