The paper raises problems which are experienced by the Department of Information Studies in running the Diploma in School Librarianship (DSL). These problems relate to obstacles which interfere with attracting students into the program and getting them committed to school librarianship as a profession, and also relate to inadequacies which students bring into the program. The problems, which are outlined from observations made by faculty members in the Department, are reinforced by some literature findings. A few solutions, as attempted by the Department, are also discussed.
