Since our first library courses in 1896, the School of Information Studies (iSchool) has been a leading institution in preparing students for the field of librarianship. This year, the iSchool and Syracuse University Libraries will be celebrating National Library Week with a schedule of virtual and in-person events. National Library Week is the American Library Association’s annual celebration highlighting the valuable role libraries, librarians, and library workers play in transforming lives and strengthening our communities.
