Section 590IAC5-1-6. "Approved library science education" defined

   "Approved library science education" means core competency instruction in library science taken in an institution approved to give such library science instruction. This approval may be either accreditation of the institution by the American Library Association to give graduate library education, or approval by the Indiana state commission on higher education to give graduate or undergraduate courses in library science, or approval by another accrediting agency for postsecondary education. Such approved Indiana courses in library science taken in fulfillment of the Indiana teachers' licensing requirements for school library service shall be accepted for purposes of public library certification, except as established in section 8(2)(A) of this rule with respect to the requirement of a course in public library administration for a Librarian Certificate 4 of a public library. Similar approved courses in library science taken outside of Indiana may be accepted at the discretion of the Indiana library and historical board.
