>GSLIS RECEIVES MAJOR GRANT
>
>BOSTON (August 3, 2005) - The Institute of Museum and Library Services has
>awarded the Simmons College Graduate School of Library and Information
>Science (GSLIS) a $780,465 grant as a part of the 2005 Librarians for the
>21st Century program.
>
>The funding will establish a doctoral program at GSLIS that specializes in
>managerial leadership in the information professions, focusing on the
>knowledge, skills, and personal traits applicable to leadership in libraries
>and other information-based enterprises. The grant will support the
>preparation of 15 individuals (5 per year) for leadership roles in library
>and information organizations. The program will cater to those who may not
>be able to interrupt their employment to gain a degree, and will be offered
>with non-traditional scheduling to a small, highly selective student body.
>Faculty will include a Professor of Practice who will bring practical
>experience and a national or international reputation. Among the benefits
>will be a pool of well screened and qualified individuals to lead libraries
>and information organizations into the future, a body of scholarly and
>practice-based research of advantage to professional organizations, and
>continual updating and examination of leadership issues in
>information-related organizations.
>
>The principal investigators are Peter Hernon, Professor, and Candy Schwartz,
>Professor and Coordinator of Doctoral Studies. For more information, contact
