Friends: I am also a graduate of Syracuse University LMS program. I was not required to take any literature courses to graduate but can't imagine graduating without soem basic literature information. I was lucky to be able to get Young Adult and Children's Lit from which I learned a lot about the field of literature, writing, reviewing and analyzing. I also learned to USE literature with children. Haivng come from a business background, not teaching as so many of my classmates did, I felt those lit courses particularly important. If possible I will take some lieterature or reading course again within the next two years to help keep me current on trends and new literature as I am no longer in a school library but an administrator. As for cataloging, I was told I did not need it!!! However, this time I knew better! and did take cataloging from a gifted professor who left after one year and who is now back at Syracuse. I learanead to catalog for my readers and to use common sense. It was athe one course that was really FUN, honestly. This professor was truly gifted and made a dry subject enjoyable.
