This course is aimed at graduates from any discipline who are curious about libraries and information, and desire a professionally oriented course that builds practical knowledge and skills to work in academic, public, school, health, prison, and workplace libraries. You will develop the core competencies of librarianship defined in the Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals (CILIP) Professional Knowledge and Skills Base, including leadership, management and strategic service design. You will learn how information is managed, organised, governed and made available to users, how to be a reflective practitioner and the ethical principles and values that underpin the library and information profession. Research-active academic staff will involve you in conversations about cutting-edge developments in library research, including scholarly communication, information behaviour, the role of artificial intelligence in library services, archival practices and the provision of library services to diverse communities. You will learn how to apply current practices in librarianship, for example how to apply the principles of cataloguing, classification, metadata and controlled vocabularies, how to teach information literacy and how to design library spaces. Our modules are developed in partnership with professionals from all library sectors, and most feature opportunities to hear from and interact with library experts. A core aspect of the programme is the opportunity to visit library and information services, meet with practitioners, and learn about the very latest practice - often from our alumni.
