MLIS Resources

USC's Library system offers a wealth of resources to students, including LibGuides, citation guides, and research support from academic librarians (both in-person and virtually). They also have a Live Chat that has an actual librarian on the other end!

USC's Office of Student Success offers graduate student support such as workshops, accountability groups, and success consultations (in-person and online).

USC's Writing Center offers in-person and online services to help students improve their writing skills through every stage of the writing process.

LISSA offers a variety of professional development offerings throughout the year such as roundtable discussions and portfolio workshops. Join LISSA on GarnetGate to receive emails about upcoming events and access to recordings from past events!

LISSA also has regularly scheduled virtual meetings for members to connect with each other, network, and form community among MLIS students, which can be tough in an online, asynchronous program! Scheduled meeting times are also posted on GarnetGate.
