By taking advantage of GSLIS resources and opportunities and actively participating in events, you can shape your professional career.
LISSA, the Library and Information Science Student Association, is one way to become involved. Our mission is made of two main objectives:
1. To enhance the Dominican University Graduate School of Library and Information Science students' education through networking, information sharing, and other activities;
2. To effect more streamlined communication between students, faculty, and administration.
How Do I Join?
All GSLIS students are automatically members of LISSA.
What is LISSA?
LISSA consists of an elected board of GSLIS students who act as liaisons between the GSLIS students, faculty and alumni. LISSA advocates:
- Providing open discussions in the form of forums and meetings regarding such topics as school policies, the make-up of the GSLIS program, etc.
- Building relationships with other students as well as faculty and alumni through social events throughout the Chicagoland area.
- Networking opportunities by hosting various speakers, library visits and workshops.
