We invite you to attend an online open house to learn more about the Master of Library and Information Science degree program, Teacher Librarian program, Master of Archives and Records Administration and Master of Science in Instructional Design and Technology degree programs.

The online information sessions provide an overview of our school’s online learning community, exclusively online programs, and interactive online learning environment.

Our award-winning faculty and staff host the information sessions. It’s a great opportunity to meet our faculty and staff and ask any questions you may have about the online educational programs.

Open house sessions begin at 5:30 p.m. Pacific Time are held via web conferencing. Each session lasts approximately 60 minutes. For instructions on how to use the Zoom web conferencing platform, please see Open House Preparation Guide.

Open house sessions are held during the academic year. If you can’t join us for a live session, you may view a recording of an information session when most convenient for your schedule.
