Hi Janet, 

I am the Director of WISE, a consortium of LIS schools (including UBC SLAIS) which share online elective courses.I would be happy to gather some information for you about the Intellectual Freedom courses offered through the consortium course exchange. We have records dating back to our founding in 2004; would you like the list of relevant courses dating back that far, or just those offered in say the past year or two which are likely to be offered again?

Best,
Katie Schisa

Subject: non-credit/credit online courses/workshops on Intellectual Freedom

I'm gathering information on non-credit/credit ONLINE courses/
workshops on Intellectual Freedom that library workers (professional
librarians, teacher librarians, library technicians, library clerks,
community librarians) could take as continuing education. This might
include courses that a person can take as unclassified student. Given
these are ONLINE workshops/courses, I'm curious to find out what is
available from a wide variety of places.

I'd also like to get information on such workshops/courses that a
person could take IN PERSON through organizations or universities in
the Pacific Northwest region of the USA/Canada.

I will be sharing this information with participants at a workshop on
Intellectual Freedom and Youth Services at an upcoming regional
conference for library workers.

Please send this information directly to me at [log in to unmask]

Thank you.
