New classes offered for spring/summer 2023 semester

The School of Information Sciences is pleased to announce two new classes available this Spring/Summer.

Grant Writing for Information Professionals and Archivists - INF 6850

Cultural institutions often rely on grant writing to raise additional funds. The successful grant writing process is complex, and success depends on understanding the history of the granting organization, internal institutional dynamics and the clarity of the story of impact.

This two-credit course will be taught by Leslie Edwards, an archivist for the Archives of Michigan at the Michigan History Center, in the Spring semester. There are no pre-requisites and it is open to SIS and non-SIS students.

Website Preservation - INF 6850

The need to preserve websites is a challenge both culturally and technologically. This is a growing field with a limited amount of professionals having developed these unique skills. There are simply not enough people with this complex skill. This course addresses the challenges in needs assessment, as well as technological limitations.

Julianna Barrera-Gomez, a preservation analyst for Harvard Library, will teach this two-credit course in the Summer semester. Pre-requisites include INF 6080 or INF 7780 or INF 6050 or instructor approval. This course is open to all SIS students.
