I believe Florida State has been doing so for a few years and I heard rumor
that the Univ. of Southern Mississippi was too.

Hi Judy-

I am currently a student at Simmons College GSLIS- I don't know if they
have distance learning- you could check.  Syracuse University has an
entire Library program through Distance Learning I believe.  Good luck.

The University of North Carolina - Greensboro has library science courses
offered to some distance learning sites.  I graduated in '94, so I don't
know where the sites are.

I know Syracuse University offers distance courses with a brief residency.
I believe the University of Arizona does as well.  Best of luck.  Freya
