What does a distance MLIS really cost?

A couple of months ago when Walt Crawford put out his Great Middle list of library blogs, I picked a few to watch in a separate folder before fully committing.  One of the ones that graduated to my "real" subscription list is OPL Plus, the blog for librarians in one-person libraries, written by Judith Siess.  I've found that she really does cover a lot of stuff I find interesting, even though I work in a big academic library.

Yesterday Judith posted about how much it costs to earn an MLIS through a distance program, based on 05/06 figures at the Become a Librarian website.  Even if a little out of date, there's some interesting info there!  Turns out I covered this site back in June (I thought it looked familiar!), but it's nice that Judith did the math for the total cost.

I just ran across your post (using Google's searchmash). Thanks for the good words.
