What’s your take on the O’Connor and Mulvaney article about ALA accreditation and ‘public accountability measures”? http://lj.libraryjournal.com/2013/05/library-education/ala-accreditation-and-accountability-backtalk/

One quote, “At this time, the Standards are liminal, providing only a threshold which much be reached, and not aspirational.”

I am impressed by the wealth of experience and academic credentials the QC GLIS students bring to the program and the diversity of their career aspirations. If the model suggested in the article were adopted, I wonder if the result would be greater specialization?
