Welcome

Workforce Issues in Library and Information Science (WILIS) is a collaborative research project designed to study the educational, workplace, career and retention issues faced by library and information science (LIS) graduates. WILIS is a partnership of f the UNC School of Information and Library Science and the UNC Institute on Aging.

Part 1 of the project will focus on graduates from North Carolina's six library and information science programs, building an in-depth understanding of career patterns using a life course perspective. Part 2 of the project will use the methods developed in Part 1 to generate a transferable model for career tracking of LIS graduates nationally, called WILIS 2.
