This course will help students to understand the social construction and political aspects of libraries and information. By problematizing the information ecosystem, students will have an opportunity to critically evaluate the forces that shape information production and dissemination and become empowered to make informed decisions about their own information habits

The internship will provide students with an opportunity to gain knowledge and skills from a planned work experience in the student’s chosen career field or a field of interest. This experience allows students the opportunity to practice the application of theory and apply the knowledge acquired through academic preparation, while learning the skills of an entry level practitioner in an information field.
