Gen: certification in library media

[Berta Barnard <bbarnard@CAMBRIDGE.K12.VT.US>]

Hello:
        I am a library assistant in an elementary school in rural
Vermont where opportunities for continuing education are sparse.  I
would like to get certified in library media perhaps and wonder what
long distance and alternative options are available and bona fide.
This is not my preferred route since I benefit from networking with
peers.  I have a bachelor's degree in human development/education
(1974 vintage) and nearly 20 years of experience in public, school
and a medical library.  There is one program offered in the state of
Vermont but it involves much commuting a good distance and is
spread out over 6 semesters, I believe. I thought that the University
of Utah had some kind of program but a web search turned up
nothing. TIA for your leads.
