University of Wisconsin System School Library Education Consortium

The University of Wisconsin System - School Library Education Consortium is a collaborative program that combines the strengths of faculty in library media programs at:

• Whitewater
• Madison
• Eau Claire
• Superior and
• Oshkosh

In 1997, faculty at Whitewater and Eau Claire banded together to make access to preparation programs for licensure in library media and technology available to teachers who are beyond the normal commuting range of campuses. They were joined in the effort a year later by Madison, Superior and Oshkosh and supported by the University of Wisconsin System and Project Vital to form a System wide Consortium (UWSSLEC). The goal of the UWSSLEC program is to enable teachers who want to expand their ability to use information and technology, and to attain licensure as a library media specialist.

The goal of the UWSSLEC program is to provide access to licensure in libary media and technology and, at the same time, link with campus degree programs to enhance options and flexibility.
