[Michael Penny <mpenny@EMAIL.UNC.EDU>]

"Libraries and Librarianship:  Past, Present and Future"
University of Oxford, England
May 11 - 24, 2008

Would you like to spend two weeks in England learning about the history and
future challenges of librarianship?  How about if those two weeks were spent
at The University of Oxford with sessions held at the historic Bodleian
Library, Oxford University Press, many of the university's unique college
libraries, as well as the British Library in London?

Co-sponsored by The University of Oxford and The University of North
Carolina at Chapel Hill's School of Information and Library Science, this
two-week, residential summer program allows library professionals and
graduate students to explore the past, present, and future of libraries and
librarianship at one of the world's premier educational institutions.  

Participants will be staying in the center of Oxford allowing them to
immerse themselves in the exciting and historic university city and are free
to explore England on the weekend.  More information about Oxford can be
found in the Lonely Planet Guide at
http://www.lonelyplanet.com/worldguide/england/oxford and on the Oxford city
website at http://www.oxfordcity.co.uk/, and about the Bodleian Library at

Information about the program including an overview of the schedule, what is
included in the costs, and how to take this program for academic credit is
available at http://sils.unc.edu/programs/international/oxford.html.  We
also run a summer seminar in Prague more information for which is available
