=Target Users =

The target users of My MLS is __________  are students enrolled in Pratt Institute's Library and Information Science graduate program. The age range of this user group starts with students in their early twenties and continues on. They are living generally in (but not limited to) the tri-state area. Pratt MLS students work and study in a fast paced environment, incorporating technology into their every day lives. They are computer literate and capable of easily navigating the internet.They have many needs concerning information about the MLS program including but not limited to: descriptions of courses offered; course sections available each semester; directions on how to register for courses; information about each professor; where to locate the information needed.

 As MLS students ourselves at Pratt, we feel that the current organization of information about the MLS program is inadequate in timely addressing the questions and needs of the students. This website is meant to consolidate the multitude of resources necessary to answer this user group's information needs into one interactive electronic venue. We hope that by creating an environment for Pratt MLS students, a sense of community will evolve amongst the students through there interactions on this website.
