The problem is that we've been advised to plan our courses for the whole MLIS programme, especially if we plan to study part-time over 3-4 years. Okay, that itself is not the problem. The problem is that, I don't know for sure which elective courses will be scheduled for which trimester, after 2004. And of course I have to ensure that I don't select two courses which are on at the same time.
I am going to contact the programme director, for sure. But actually I'm no longer sure which electives I want to take (we can take four) i.e. what kind of librarian career I want to aim for. I'm keen on the Reference course because I think I want to be a reference librarian. But I'm also interested in the Digital Library course because I like using electronic resources, have some IT background and am interested in web content management. And I really want to do Art of the Book because I've always been interested in books as objects. But I should really do the Business Information course because it'll be useful in most corporate library jobs. What about Cataloguing? Surely it's important in all library jobs? Arrgh!
