The University of Washington Information School is committed to making available Library and Information Science (LIS) graduate-level electives through its Continuing Education Option (CE Option).

The CE Option is intended for library and information professionals who hold the MLS, MLIS or a similar degree in a related field. Enrollment in any of the courses enables qualified professionals to pursue advanced topics in library and information science. Students who successfully complete any of these courses will be awarded Continuing Education Units (CEUs) equivalent to the number of academic credits for the course.

CE Course Offerings

Classes in library and information science are listed in the course catalog. 

Registration Information

Non-matriculated students — students not actively pursuing a degree program at the UW—may enroll directly in any of the Information School courses offered on campus during evenings or weekends, or through UW Online Learning. Learn more about how to register for credit classes as a non-matriculated student.
