You don't need a specific bachelors to enter an MLS program. Make sure you do your research on the programs because a love of books isn't enough to get you through all the computer science and database stuff. After you get your MLS you can work at any library, public school librarians have additional certification requirements that vary by state.
Make sure you go to an ALA accredited program. The ALA website is really helpful.Can a music major go on directly to get a masters in library science?
You would be able to go for the masters. The only thing is that you might not have all the basics covered, so you might have to take a few extra classes. And once you graduate and become a librarian, you can work anywhere except school libraries, because for that you also need a teaching degree.Can a music major go on directly to get a masters in library science?
Yes, you can get a degree in library science from any major. No, you won't be restricted to music libraries. Friends and family of mine have entered MLS programs with degrees in art, English, history, even science.
Yes. It is one of those degrees that and bachelors will get you into.
Thanks
