Master of Library and Information Science
The Master of Library and Information Science (MLIS) is a master's degree combining library science and information science, with a focus on information management. It is the most common degree for professional librarian positions in the United States. It developed after the older Master of Library Science was reformed to address information science and technology needs. Admission normally requires a bachelor's degree in any discipline.
