Library Science Degree Statistics

[Wendy Hanko <whanko@COVAD.NET>]

Dear LM_Netters,
I have been given an assignment to write a research paper which includes =
gathering and comparing statistics of the subject of my choice.
Of course I want it to relate to the topic of Library/Media.   :)
My paper will focus on comparing the number of Masters degrees earned in =
 the field of Library Science over the past 30 years, with the projected =
number of persons who will be seeking a similar degree in the next 5-10 =
years.  I may also include the male/female ratio within the results as =
well as a state-by-state comparison if the information needed is =
available.
So, does anyone out there have a recommendation on the best source(s) =
for these particular statistics?
Please send replies to:  whanko@covad.net .

Thank you in advance, for your help.  You are a wonderful group!
