Abstract:

Beginning with interactive television transmission (ITT) to an offsite campus at CSU Fullerton, the School of Library and Information Science (SLIS) at San Jose State University (SJSU) has been providing distance education to students in California for more than ten years. While ITT continues to be employed at SLIS, faculty members are moving into Web-assisted and Web-based courses in the Master of Library and Information Science degree program. This article provides background information, the current program, and compares research conducted elsewhere with research undertaken at SJSU. The problems to be overcome and their solutions both proposed and actual are given.
