Applied History and Library Science, M.A./M.S.L.S.

Shippensburg University History program and Clarion University’s Library Science program participate in a cooperative degree program. Students in this cooperative program earn two degrees: a Master of Arts in Applied History degree, and a Master of Science in Library and Information Science degree.  As part of the cooperative agreement, students are allowed to double-count six credits of coursework towards the two degrees. You must apply and be accepted to each program separately to pursue the cooperative degree option. The library science program is offered entirely online. This combination of degrees prepares students for library and research careers in archives, libraries, and with historical organizations.
