Advising

All students are assigned to an academic adviser, whom they should consult at least once per semester for program planning and advising. When students receive their acceptance letter to the program, they will be notified on the bottom of the letter as to the name of their academic adviser.

Career Mentoring

The UNCG LIS Professional Mentoring program pairs new and continuing LIS students with professionals in the library and information studies fields. Created to provide students with a professional perspective on their studies as well as a firsthand look at a career in their field, the mentoring program pairs students with appropriate mentors based on location, type of library, and specialty.
