For how long is accreditation valid?
The term of accreditation is 7 years.Every 7 years the Office of Accreditation assembles
a panel to evaluate the mission, goals, and objectives of a school and to determine
if the school is meeting the ALA Standards in providing library and information science
education to its students.In addition to the panel, a site team is constituted to
visit each library school to access the degree to which the school is accomplishing
the satisfaction of the ALA Standards.USF’s School of Information successfully completed
this renewal process in 2016.

What are some of the things that might affect a school’s accreditation?
Unequal or inadequate funding of the school by the parent institution.SI gets funded on an equal basis with all other programs of a similar type at USF;
therefore this should not be an issue in our accreditation.
What is a Laryngologist?
A Laryngologist is a physician, surgeon, and specialist that treats illnesses and injuries of the larynx, pharynx, and surrounding structures of the neck.The larynx plays a key role in normal breathing, swallowing, and voice production.Diseases of the larynx and surrounding structures, therefore, lead to voice, swallowing, and breathing problems.Laryngologists specialize in the treatment of these conditions.Laryngology is a branch of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery, a medical specialty that focuses on diagnosis and treatment of ear, nose, and throat disorders.
What is accreditation?
Accreditation is a voluntary evaluation system of higher education institutions and
programs.It is a collegial process based on self-evaluation and peer-assessment for
the improvement of academic quality and public accountability.Accreditation assures
that higher education institutions and their units, schools, or programs meet appropriate
standards of quality and integrity.
What is ALA Accreditation?
If you are seeking a job as a librarian, you may have heard of ALA Accreditation.ALA stands for American Library Association, the biggest library association in the world.Founded in 1876, it is also the oldest association.Their mission is to develop and improve library and information services for all types of libraries in the U.S.and in other areas of the world.Among other things they do, they accredit academic programs that prepare professional librarians in the U.S., as well as Puerto Rico and Canada.
What is the process?
Approximately two years prior to the expiration of a school’s accreditation, ALA’s
Office of Accreditation sends out a memorandum notifying the school of their review.At that time, the school develops a Program Plan which explains how the school will
go about assembling the documentation required by the Office.The plan is submitted
and the Office then comments or makes suggestions about the Plan.Next, the school
begins to compile all of the information necessary to accomplish their plan.That
information, the Program Presentation, is submitted.Additional comments and/or information
may be requested and a final document is submitted to the COA office.Based on the
documentation presented, the Committee writes their report.Then a site evaluation
team will visit the School.They will compile a report which is submitted to the Director
of the Office of Accreditation.Finally, at the summer ALA conference, the Director
of the School of Information will discuss the report with a panel established by the
Office of Accreditation.Subsequently, the school will be notified sometime in July
of their recommendations relevant to the continuation of accreditation.
What's the State of Your Air?
Our 2021 "State of the Air" report finds that millions of people are living with and breathing polluted air, placing their health and lives at risk.
Why Choose Architectural Lighting Alliance?
ALA teams with industry-leading specifiers and the construction community to ensure their clients’ visions are accomplished by offering reliable and timely support every step of the way.
Why should I receive my Master’s degree from an ALA-accredited program?
Graduating from an ALA-accredited program provides greater flexibility in the types
of libraries and jobs for which you can apply and enhances your career mobility.Most
employers require an ALA-accredited master’s for most professional level positions
and some states require an ALA-accredited degree to work as a professional librarian
in public or school libraries.ALA accreditation indicates that the program has undergone
a self-evaluation process, been reviewed by peers, and meets the Standards established
by the American Library Association’s Committee on Accreditation.
