Dear All,

 

I am delighted to announce that the Department of Information Studies, Aberystwyth University is now  iMLA - Information Management Libraries and Archives, located within the Institute of Professional Development, effective 1 October 2017.

 

The name change reflects more accurately the current scope, focus and range of activity within the discipline, thereby ensuring more widespread professional recognition nationally and internationally.

 

iMLA offers a range of professionally accredited schemes, including Masters’ degrees in FT and DL mode, a Batchelor’s’ degree in DL mode, as well as FT/PT PhDs and Professional Doctorates (DProfs).

 

Judy
