• Develop familiarity with the related legal and policy documents related to the theme.
• Identify relevant concepts, models, and/or theories related to the theme.
• Demonstrate awareness and understanding of ethical considerations related to the theme.

Skills:

• Apply skills and knowledge from previous courses in Library and Information Science or other areas of study.
• Effectively search for, synthesize, critically analyze, and correctly reference source materials.
• Critically assess the connection between theory, policy, and practice related to a selected theme

General Skills:

• Initiate, organize, carry out, and communicate a project.

The course centers around a series of visits to libraries, archives, and/or museums in connection to students' selected themes. Students will complete two assignments related to their series of visits and present their investigation of the selected theme to the class.

Students can work individually or in groups of two.

Teaching methods alternate between lectures, study visits, discussions, and presentations. Teaching will be on campus, sometimes online.

The examination is evaluated by both an internal and an external examiner. The external examiner grades a randomly selected sample, comprising approximately 25 percent of the exams. The grades assigned to this sample serve as a basis for the internal examiners who will assess the remaining exams.

Det benyttes en intern og en ekstern sensor til sensurering av besvarelsene. Et uttrekk på minst 25 % av besvarelsene sensureres av to sensorer. Karakterene på disse samsensurerte besvarelsene skal danne grunnlag for å fastsette nivå på resten av besvarelsene.
