Foreign Credentials Evaluation Assistance

¹Ü¼ÒÆŲÊͼ

The policy of the ¹Ü¼ÒÆŲÊͼ (¹Ü¼ÒÆŲÊͼ) states:

"The master's degree from a program accredited by the ¹Ü¼ÒÆŲÊͼ (or from a master's level program in library and information studies accredited or recognized by the appropriate national body of another country) is the appropriate professional degree for librarians."

The ¹Ü¼ÒÆŲÊͼ does not conduct evaluations of transcripts or credentials or make recognition decisions. We also cannot serve as a channel of appeal for persons dissatisfied with evaluations.
