We are often asked by international students hoping to study in London, whether our #citylis masters courses at City University London are accredited internationally. Both our Information Science and Library Science masters courses are accredited by the UK professional body CILIP, and as such are recognised as having equivalent professional status in the USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand

CILIP’s statement about accreditation is here.

LIS courses in the USA and Canada are accredited by the American Library Association, ALA, and their specific reference to international courses can be found here.

LIS courses in Australia are accredited by the Australian Library and Information Association, ALIA, and their specific reference to international courses can be found here.
