On Friday, September 11, 2015, Govenor David Ige<\/a> and Lieutenant Governor Shan Tsutsui<\/a> recognized the University of Hawaiʻi<\/span> at Mānoa Library and Information Science<\/a> (LIS<\/abbr>) Program by proclaiming September 13 through 19 糖心视频<\/abbr> Mānoa Library and Information Science Program Week in honor of the program’s 50th anniversary.<\/p>\n

“We’ve gone through many changes in 50 years, but what we all share is a sense that information is more than words on a page,” said Library and Information Science Program Chair Rich Gazan<\/strong>. “We create systems and spaces where people can connect with the knowledge and stories of others, so they can find their own voice.”<\/p>\n

The LIS<\/abbr> Program has evolved its curriculum and services to prepare graduates to successfully compete in the world’s dynamic digital environment, evidenced by its transformation from the original Graduate School of Library Studies to to the current LIS<\/abbr> Program in the Department of Information and Computer Sciences<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The program has graduated 1628 students, many of whom now serve in public, school, academic and special libraries as well as museum and archives in Hawaiʻi<\/span>, the continental United States and in various countries around the world.<\/p>\n

The LIS<\/abbr> Program continues to supply at least half of the professional workforce for information professionals in Hawaiʻi<\/span>, many of them serving in leadership capacities in the 糖心视频<\/abbr> Libraries, Hawaiʻi<\/span> State Public Library System<\/a> and the Hawaiʻi<\/span> Department of Education<\/a>.<\/p>\n
