- They Give Credit for That? Accreditation, Assessment, and Distance Learning Library Services Jerabek, J. Ann Distance Education Guidelines Library Services Information Science Education Accreditation (Institutions) Institutional Evaluation Standards Benchmarking Library Associations Information Technology For institutions of higher education, accreditation and re-accreditation are facts of academic life. Since accreditation standards now include distance education and related support services, librarians and library administrators involved with distance learners and distance education programs need to know the published guidelines and methods for demonstrating that standards are being met. This article discusses ways to become familiar with relevant accreditation standards; it highlights a study of assessment by Bonnie Gratch-Lindauer, and it reviews pertinent items from the "ACRL Guidelines for Distance Learning Library Services." It also notes practices suggested in the "Guidelines," especially those related to assessment and evaluation, which provide methods and data that can be used to document how specific standards are met. (Contains 16 notes.)
