Here’s an interesting news story I can across. East Carolina University (in my home state of North Carolina) just awarded eight scholarships to recruit students who were seeking careers in libraries.
EDU’s Department of Library Science and Instructional Technology presented the scholarships, the first for Library Science majors, to eight (and very happy) bookworms in NC.
The scholarship provides full tuition in ECU’s master’s in library science, which is a completely online degree program. Over the next 3 years the plan is to award a total of 45 scholarships.
The mulaa for the scholarships came from a grant from the federal Institute of Museum and Library Services. The goal of the grant is to allow existing librarians to continue working in their local communities while going to school to become licensed media specialists. This in turn allows school districts in rural areas to have licensed media specialists on staff that they may not otherwise be able to recruit.
Pretty Cool, huh?

Here are a few qestions you can ask yourself to help you figure out if
getting your education online is something that would the
the right thing for you.
Are you are currently in a career and you want to move up the”corporate ladder”?
Are yOu are currently “stuck” at the current level in your career and need
a degree or advanced degree to get “unstuck”?
Are you are wishing for a better life, a better standard of living for you
and your family?
Do you have a job now, but you want to continue your education?
Do you lack a college education, and you can’t spend the
time to back to school full time?
Do you travel alot in your present job so even “weekend’ programs won’t work for you?
Are you in the wrong career path want to change it?
Does your husband or wife work outside the home and you’re the “stay at home” spouse
with the kids running around, but you have time and want take some college courses?
Are you a true “lifelong learner” - always trying to improve your knowledge?
If you can answer yes to any of these questions then either taking
some college courses or persuing a full degree online is probably right for you.
