A definition of a college librarian is an individual employed as a librarian at a college or university. In order to become a librarian a person must have obtained a master's degree in library science. According to American Library Association (ALA), The master's degree in library and studies is frequently referred to as MLS, however ALA accredited programs offer degrees with varying titles such as Master of Arts, Master of Librarianship, Master of Library and Information Studies, or Master of Science (2002, para. 2). ALA currently accredits 58 programs at 56 institutions in United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico. Literature Review Academic teach a variety of classes on a regular basis. Classes taught can range from a freshman English literature class to a doctoral research seminar. classes can be a one or two session lesson, a semester long class or be a class in itself.

A current buzzword in library science right now is information literacy. Information literacy can be defined as ability to know when there is a need for information, to be able to identify, locate, and effectively use that for issue of problem at hand (National Forum on Information Literacy, 2001). Teaching literacy is not solely responsibility of though; teaching faculty must become involved too.
