This program is designed to prepare students to work in academic and research libraries as well as large public libraries as humanities librarians and bibliographers who are often called upon to manage divisions or special collections in such libraries.

The UWM Library Special Collections, 20th Century Collection, Shakespeare Collection, and the Roosevelt Collection, provide unique fieldwork opportunities for students in this program. Other local special collections in the Milwaukee Public Library and the Marquette University Memorial Library are also available.
