This year three new librarians were added to the Curran Library staff, and approximately 1.3 million dollars was allocated for a new library building on the campus. Besides planning the construction of the new library, members of the Library Science Department have also taken part in symposiums and career days designed to stimulate the high school student’s interests in librarianship, and to help recruit new students as well. At present, SSU offers a minor in Library Science that requires at least 22 credits, with a curriculum that is fully approved and accredited by the North Central Association and the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction.
