First online course Offered in ‘93/’94. John Ellison: “My first Distance Education course was Academic and Research Libraries in the School of Information and Library Studies the spring of either 1993 or 1994, as I can best recall. I went to the first class session…. and announced the option of taking the course either over the Internet or in the classroom. For the next three weeks I came back to the classroom to meet those students who selected the "classroom option" and never had one student return to the classroom.” 11
