- Abstract
- This study aims to examine the current state of career placement services for master's students at the School of Information and Library Science at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC SILS) and compare them to services offered at other highly ranked American Library Association accredited iSchools. Possible correlation of career placement services with average starting salary, percentage of recent graduates reporting employment, and school ranking are explored. The study finds that career placement services at UNC SILS lag behind those offered at most other similar programs. Ways to enhance UNC SILS' placement services are examined, implications for the school are highlighted, and recommendations are made for future action.
