Great classes coming up...

Most of the classes listed below are four weeks in length, with a price of $175.

We accept registrations through the first week of class (unless enrollment is full, and unless the class was canceled before it started due to low enrollment).

Classes are taught asynchronously, so participants can do the work at any time of the day. Assignments are typically on a weekly basis.

While academic programs focus on conceptual understanding of foundations, we focus primarily on the kinds of skills that library schools expect librarians to learn on-the-job, but which usually turn out to require additional study. These workshops earn Continuing Education Units, and are intended as professional development activities. Workshops are taught asynchronously, so you can participate as your own schedule allows.

Some LJA trivia: We get customers from around the world. So far, in addition to the US, people have taken our classes from Abu Dhabi, Antigua, Argentina, Australia, Austria, Bahamas, Barbados, Belgium, Benin, Bermuda, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Cyprus, Denmark, Egypt, England, Fiji, France, Germany, Greece, Guyana, Hungary, India, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Jamaica, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Luxembourg, Macau, Malaysia, Mexico, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Northern Ireland, Norway, Panama, Pakistan, Philippines, Portugal, Romania, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saudi Arabia, Scotland, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Tajikistan, Trinidad and Tobago, United Arab Emirates, and Wales.
