Library scholl programmes offered at master's level in the United States, Canada and Brazil a comparative study
This thesis was intended to clarif the modern developments in library education in relation to the challenge of a changing world by studying how library schools in the United States, Canada and Brazil are training their students at the master's level. It was guided by the hipothesis that effective on-the-job performance by library scholl graduates is directly related to the type of education which they had received in their library school, and more specifically, to their library school's goals and to its particular programme of instruction. The diversities and similarities of the library school programmes in the three countries was analysed comparatively with reference to: (1) Accreditation vs. Certification, (2) Professionalization vs. goals and objectives of the studied library schools, (3) Library Schools Programmes, and (4) specilization vs. generalization
