Authority: Certification of librarians has been a part of New Mexico law since 1947. The New Mexico Laws of 1977, the Executive Reorganization Act, authorizes the State Librarian to prescribe and hold examinations for the certification of librarians or to require submission of credentials to establish the qualifications of those seeking certification as librarians, and to issue certificates of librarianship to qualified persons.
