The Co-op Program
Western's library and information science co-operative work/study program, begun in
1979, formally integrates a student's academic study with paid work experience.
Students gain exposure to the professional environment, an opportunity to use
and develop newly-acquired skills, and practical experience which will
contribute to their training as professionals.
Employers gain enthusiastic, adaptable, temporary employees with up-to-date
skills on a “just-in-time” basis.
