Abstract
LIS students today are gearing up for a job search in a tight market. We are examining how the activities and experiences they participate in during graduate school impact success in the job market. The results of our survey show the extent to which program rankings, coursework, activities, and internships provide a competitive edge in the job market. Come explore our results and learn what recent LIS graduates have to offer your library.
