The Library Education and Human Resource Development Program provides grants to institutions of higher education and library organizations or agencies to train persons in librarianship through fellowships, institutes, and traineeships. This study presents data on fellowships which were awarded to institutions of higher education for the seven-year period of Fiscal Year 1985 through Fiscal Year 1991.
This paper is a synthesis of information contained in the final performance reports submitted as part of the terms and conditions of the grants. Where report information was lacking, direct contact was made with the grantee institutions to get a more complete picture of the impact of the training program.
The study has been prepared for use by librarians, counselors, and prospective students of library and information science.
