Hi Sharon,
Please check the School of Library and Information Science at San Jose
State University. Dr. Ken Haycock, late of UBC, is now the Director, and
with Professor Lori Lindberg (a leading archival light) establishing the
program, will be offering the Master in Archives and Records Management
in 2007.
As I finish (fingers crossed) this year with a concentration in
Archives, I am too late to take advantage of this, but others may.
