History
According to the founder, lawyer, journalist and businessman Cásper Líbero, the first school of Journalism in Brazil, Faculdade Cásper Líbero was founded in 1943, but only started operating in 1947, due to legislative and bureaucratic issues.[3] It was the second institution in Latin America to have a journalism course.[4][5][1] In 1972, it introduced courses on advertising and public relations. In 2002, it introduced a broadcasting course.
Admissions
All students are admitted through a competitive entrance exam, usually consisting of 90 multiple-choice questions and a written essay. Students may also earn extra points depending on their performance on the ENEM exam.
Library
The José Geraldo Vieira Library opened in 1948, one year after the inauguration of the Journalism school. The collection management system underwent a modernization process in June 2008, making it possible to access online services. With an area of 625 m2, the Library contains a collection of 49,000 books, 580 periodicals, 4,270 films and several online and CD-ROM databases, in addition to having a Documentation and Research Center where you can find the newspaper library, the audiovisual collection, the Gazeta collection of historical newspapers, the collection of books from Cásper Líbero's personal library and other rare materials.[6][7]
Students have a large historical collection to consult. Several editions of the old Gazeta Esportiva are preserved on site, television materials stored in past formats (Quadruplex videotape, U-matic, Betacam, among others.) and a vast disco with rarities, primarily of Brazilian music.[8]
