[CALIBK12] Accredited school library media programs in CA

[Lesley Farmer]

it's because Calif. has an agreement with the CTC and 
NCATE so that NCATE accredits UNITS, which means ALL the 
associated programs AND the unit as a whole, which is 
actually more rigorous. It is NOT required that AASL 
review the librarianship program for it to be 
NCATE-accredited. CSU Long Beach's librarianship program 
is NCATE-accredited and state-accredited as a result.
