Library techs are in demand—because libraries have become the go-to place for everything from traditional books to e-books, multi-media and online resources.
Saskatchewan Polytechnic's two-year Library and Information Technology diploma program has been developed in accordance with the Canadian Library Association Guidelines to address ongoing advances in technology and changing library user needs.

Through lectures, labs and hands-on projects, you’ll develop knowledge and skills in:
- Acquisitions, circulation and interlibrary loans
- Archives and records management
- Computer-based and traditional library management
- Database searching and reference research
