Below is the information Ann Ohms and Georgeann Burch sent in the spring.
Here is the process to add/update to the PreK-12 Library Information
Specialist endorsement via ISBE:
*Apply for a PreK-12 LIS Endorsement Now!*
ISBE has recently (and immediately) changed the grade level designations
for endorsements. The Library Information Specialist will now be issued
only as PK-12 grade level endorsement. They have removed previous
requirements for adding a middle grade endorsement, and any licensed
librarian at any grade level can now ADD the PK-12 endorsement. Former
rules no longer apply. At least until ISBE changes their mind again, so
apply now!
To do so, licensed librarians must go into their ELIS account and ADD an
endorsement. As you click through the screens, here are several choices you
should make:
1. “Teacher” for type of endorsement
2. Answer NO to the question: “Is an Illinois university/college
recommending you for this endorsement?”
3. “New Grade Range” for type of new endorsement
4. YES, you completed an approved program
5. Don’t worry about the list of requirements for a PEL
6. “Special Teaching” for type of teaching
7. “Kindergarten through grade 12” for Grade level range.
8. Then finally, choose the Library Information Specialist – LIS,
PK-12 LIS endorsement.
9. Pay $50.00. If ISBE needs any additional information, they will
contact the person requesting the endorsement.
Also included are screenshots of the process

for
your use. Your ROE is an excellent resource and will be willing to walk
you through the process if you have difficulty!
