*Prague Summer Seminar in Libraries and Librarianship*

*May 20th - June 2nd, 2012*

*Academic Credit Available*

Prague, the magical city of cathedrals, gold-tipped towers, and church 
domes, is one of the most popular destinations in East Central Europe. 
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill's School of Information 
and Library Science summer seminar allows library professionals to 
explore the past, present, and future of libraries and librarianship in 
the heart of one of the world's most remarkable, yet largely 
undiscovered, countries. During this this two-week, residential summer 
program, participants will enjoy lectures and tours related to 
librarianship in this culturally and academically rich country. In 
addition to visiting libraries and museums in Prague, the group will 
also make trips to visit  two UNESCO World Heritage sites, Krome(r(íz( 
(http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/860) and C(eský Krumlov 
(http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/617) with their historic libraries, 
castles, and gardens.

  Accommodation in the center of Prague allows participants to explore 
this historic and absorbing capital city during the week, and the 
surrounding countryside during their free time on the weekends. More 
information about Prague can be found in the Lonely Planet Guide at 
http://www.lonelyplanet.com/worldguide/czech-republic/prague and on the 
Prague information site at http://www.prague.cz/.  This seminar has been 
offered each summer  by UNC and Charles University in Prague since 2002.

  Information about the seminar, including an overview of the schedule, 
costs, and past participant reviews, can be found at:

option of earning 3 hours of academic credit. *
