[Fwd: Archiving as a Career and School Requirements]



I received the following and have sent her my responses, and suggested
that she might be interested in other professionals' responses.  With
her permission I am forwarding her query to the list.  Please direct
responses to her directly as she is not a list member at this time
(although I expect this to change shortly...)

Greetings Holly!

I have several questions about the field of archiving and other related fields.
First of all, how would one go about obtaining a degree (Masters) in this area?
Would it be through a Masters of Library Science?  Or what would be the
best major?
Next, where would the better programs of study for this be?  And where are
the best chances for employment in this field?
Finally, what further experience/schooling would be necessary for this?
And would you have to specialize within the field?

Please let me know if you can answer any of these questions, or if you know
of a place where I can go to find the answers.

Thank you in advance for your assistance!
