Reader's Advisors Course
Special Topic: INFO 560 Readers' Advisory Services
INFO 560, Readers' Advisory Services, will be co-ordinated by Jane Graham George. This course covers serving adult reading needs by addressing fiction genres and popular nonfiction. The relationship of readers' advisory services with reference and other library programmes, research on adult reading, and popular reading in an information society are examined.
There is a 90 minute computer audioconference every week, and in addition you should expect to spend about 11 hours per week reading and writing. See the technical requirements here:

There is information about the course here:
http://www.sim.vuw.ac.nz/degrees/mis/560.2010-details.aspx
While a Bachelor’s degree is the normal requirement, for this course I will consider applicants with relevant work experience. This is for a Certificate of Proficiency (COP).
Fee information is here - look for 'library and information studies' at 500 level in trimester 1.

When you are ready to apply, you need to use the University's online enrolments system that can be accessed from the main page:

The key point for you will be to look for the COP option.
Enrolments close very soon - on 10 February.
