Greetings.
Program accreditations are looked at by the men and women of MLIS, not as an obstacle but an opportunity. This is our opportunity to show what the program offers, aims, and works for that we have done to achieve these goals. Accreditations also provide us the opportunity to re-evaluate and re-assess our program from an external point of view using scientific and objective parameters. We can identify our pitfalls as well as our successes.
The MLIS family will always show its commitment to activities that would improve the services offered to the stakeholders. With the help of esteemed accreditors, we can achieve the academic excellence that we are always longing for.
