                        of next class sessions unless specified otherwise on the Syllabus page.

This course is extremely intensive due to the short period of time in summer. If you are technologically weak and have a very busy life schedule in summer, I suggest you take the course in Spring (face-to-face) or Fall (Web-based).

This is a core course of the MLIS program; it aims to fill American Library Association's technological requirements on information professionals and to lay a technological foundation to many advanced courses at SLIS. Therefore its content is extensive. If you need to improve your information technology skills (such as MS-Access, Dreamweaver, Intro to Programming, Web Development), please check out video-based tutorials at Lynda Campus.
