Effects of Institutional Factors on the Retention of Graduate Students of Color in Schools of Library and Information Science

The intent of the study was to understand the changes that have occurred over the last 25 years in library programs as far as enrollment and diversity of students, number and ethnicity of the faculty, program income and expenses, cost of attendance, and scholarship and fellowship aid, in an effort to better understand library programs granting the MLIS degree. The study also endeavored to identify institutional factors associated with the retention and productivity rates of White students and students of color in schools of library and information science. During the period studied, the proportional representation of White students decreased. For students of color, proportional representation was stable during the same time period. Results revealed a medium effect size of time with productivity rates for both groups declining over time. Retention rate differed significantly by time, with a small effect size with retention rate that initially increased over time, but is now decreasing. The final analyses were meta-regressions to determine if retention and productivity rates can be predicted by cost of attendance, scholarship and fellow aid, and program size. Results indicated that for students of color, program size in 2000 was significantly predictive of retention, cost of attendance was predictive in 2002, and scholarship and fellowship aid was predictive of retention in 2004. No variables were significantly predictive for retention of White students. The last analysis was to determine if productivity rate can be predicted by cost of attendance, scholarship and fellow aid, and program size. Results indicate that for White students in 2002, the cost of attendance was predictive of productivity rating. In 2003, scholarship and fellowship aid was predictive of productivity rate and in 2004, scholarship and fellowship aid was predictive of productivity rating. For students of color, results indicate that only scholarship and fellowship aid in 2005 was predictive of productivity rate. No other variables in any of the years studied showed any significant prediction of productivity rating for students of color.

World Library and Information Congress: 75th IFLA General Conference and Assembly.

L"edició del 2009 de la trobada de l"IFLA s"ha celebrat a Milà. La maquinària de l"organització va funcionar amb precisió per a aquest esdeveniment. Després d"anys de regularitat en les trobades per tot el món, l"IFLA funciona com un autòmat, una d"aquestes màquines perfectes, tant que podria continuar uncionant en les formes amb exemplar artifici. És un trobada singular, que aplega, a la vegada, la reunió de l"organització, un congrés mundial i una fira comercial; tot això amanit amb una ciutat diferent cada any i un finançament que depèn de la bona marxa de tot l"esdeveniment. En certa mesura, l"IFLA és un aparador de la professió, al qual assisteixen bibliotecaris de tot el món i de centenars d"institucions, amb tot el que suposa d"artificiositat en la representació d"entitats i promoció; un espai de reflexió, amb ponències i debats de molt variat interès que poden trobar-se, generalment, en altres esdeveniments; i una posada a punt dels treballs de tots els comitès, que tenen un complex desenvolupament previ i una àrdua tasca desenvolupada amb generositat per tots els participants.
