Introduction

Libraries are the wellspring of knowledge. They are as important as the classroom in terms of learning. Hence, they are always a part of the school.

Statement of the Problem

This project was designed to set up an Aklatang Barangay in Barangay 338, District II, Sta. Cruz, Manila. It made use of the community specifically on recreation were identified. Major steps undertaken were project planning, development, implementation and evaluation.

Methodology

Based from the pre-survey conducted in the planning stage involving 283 of the 377 households, there was a felt need of setting up an Aklatang Barangay in the community. The people's low economic status which primarily caused their inability to acquire or provide their families with recreational materials. The second survey proved further that an Aklatang Barangay could be set up through self-help as indicated by the responses of 448 children and youths who were respondents.

Findings

The Aklatang Barangay was housed in Barangay Center. Its initial collection included 35 books, 55 magazines and 5 sports materials. Some concerned barangay members regularly supplied the library with newspapers and magazines. After five months of operation the Aklatang Barangay was able to acquire a total number of 152 books, 191 magazines and 19 sports materials.

An evaluation was made not only to determine the attitude of people toward the library but also assess the impact of the project in the community. There were 120 users who have already availed of its services. Result of the evaluation proved that the Aklatang Barangay was worthy of the people and its continued service was highly endorsed.

Recommendations

Recommendations include the transfer of total responsibility to the barangay, planning a long range program for the expansion of the Aklatang Barangay, providing remuneration to volunteer staff, and coming up with a manual for the Aklatang Barangay. These recommendations were in line with the projected increase of library users.

Researcher: SALVACION S. NAVARRO

Course: Master of Arts in Library Science

School: Philippine Women’s University, Manila

Subject Area: School Libraries-Malabon

Year of Graduation: 1981

Statement of the Problem
This study was undertaken to find out the adequacy of the 30 elementary and secondary school libraries both private and public in Malabon, Metro Manila, during the school year 1978-1979 with reference to the staff, budget, physical facilities with emphasis on collections, services and students’ use of the library.

Methodology
The researcher utilized the normative evaluative survey using the questionnaire, interview and documentary analysis.

Findings
1. The library collections of the public elementary and secondary schools as to books, periodicals, vertical file and audiovisual for students and teachers were deficient. The private elementary and secondary school libraries were inadequate in some fields of its book collection like Filipiniana, supplementary readers and audiovisual materials. Books and magazines for teachers were lacking;
2. Library services needed by students and teachers were not properly rendered by the public school librarians both elementary and school and in some private schools;
3. Elementary school librarians are Education graduates, given teaching loads and work on part-time basis in the library. The secondary school librarians are B.S.E. graduates with major in Library Science and worked on full time basis although some are assigned to do part time teaching;
4. Budgets of the elementary and secondary school libraries were inadequate for library needs;
5. Libraries of elementary and secondary schools both private and public lacked the necessary rooms, furniture, equipment and supplies;
6. Private elementary pupils used the library for their research and recreational needs while the public elementary pupils did not. Majority of the students of both the private and public school sometimes went to the library and made use of their resources.

Conclusions
1. Library collections of the public elementary and secondary schools for the students and teachers were inadequate. Private elementary and secondary schools were insufficient in some areas of their library collection;
2. Library services rendered by the school librarians were inadequate in most libraries;
3. Elementary school librarians worked as teachers and assigned as part-time librarians. The secondary school librarians worked full time in the library and some with occasional part-time teaching;
4. The main problem of school libraries is lack of funds for library development.
5. School libraries were not provided with the standard facilities;
6. Private elementary pupils sometimes used the library and its resources while the public elementary pupils did not. Most of the secondary students sometimes made use of the libraries’ collections.

Recommendations
1. Library collections for students and teachers should be increased and up-dated yearly;
2. School librarians should render adequate library service to students and teachers.
3. Librarians assigned work in school libraries should have the necessary educational qualification, training and experience;
4. School libraries should be allotted with sufficient funds for its development;
5. School libraries should be provided with the necessary facilities;
6. Teachers and librarians should encourage students to make use of the library resources.

The Relationship of the Academic Performance of Students in the Philippine Christian University and Their Use of and Attitudes Towards the Library Ser

Subject Area: Library Services

Year of Graduation: 1981

Statement of the Problem
The study sought to determine the correlation between the academic performance of the students of Philippine Christian University (PCU) and their use of and attitudes towards the library services for school year 1980-1981.

Methodology
The researcher used the descriptive survey method to determine the relationship of the academic performance of students in the PCU and their use of and attitudes towards the library services. The subjects of the study were the university students representing the different departments of PCU in the main campus on Taft Avenue, Manila, for the school year 1980-1981.

Findings
The academic performance of students in the PCU were classified into levels of superior, above average, below average, and poor. Majority of the students belong to the average and below average levels. In general, the students are average.

In general, most of the respondents of all levels of performance never use the library, only 10-20 percent use it once, twice, or three time a week. They also used the following resources ranked in the order of frequency of use: Reference Services, Circulation and Reserved Book Services, and Personnel Services.

Irrespective of levels of academic performance and curricular year levels, majority of the respondents had “uncertain” attitudes toward their instructors and librarians, while majority of the respondents had positive attitudes towards some physical aspects of the library.

A large percentage of the respondents have “uncertain” attitudes toward their own skills and knowledge of the use of the library resources.

All respondents agreed that the library is the center of teaching and learning and that the students’ use of the library resources has a direct relationship to their academic performance.

A high relationship exists between academic performance and the use of the library resources among superior, above average, average, and poor or failing students.

There is no relationship between academic performance and the use of the library resources for below average students who were mostly working students. There is no relationship between the encouragement and assistance given by the professor and librarian and the use of the library services.

Recommendations
The college curriculum should be expanded and enriched so that it includes subjects which lead to the development of library consciousness among students. A 1-unit introductory course on the use of the library resources should be required for all new and first year students, regardless of courses taken.

The library should have qualified personnel.

A follow–up study of the faculty’s use of the library resources should also be made.

The administrators and department heads of the University should disseminate to the teachers and librarians as well, the results of this study to make them aware of the present situation regarding the skills of students towards the use of the library services. Subsequently, students should be motivated to cooperate for improvement of these library skills.

Practices and Problems of Saint Louis University Students in the Use of the Library

Mendoza, Marivic L. (1980). Practices and Problems of Saint Louis University Students in the Use of the Library. Unpublished Master’s Thesis. Saint Louis University, Baguio City.

Introduction

The library under girds the instructional program in the college. It is an important tool in improving college instruction. It cannot be separated from the professors or the curriculum. While the faculty stimulates intellectual curiosity and critical thinking, the library through its resources, can provide the intellectual sustenance which can be found only in books and other forms of literature

The Problem

The study aimed to determine the status of the library practices of undergraduate students in Saint Louis University during the first semester of the school year 1978-1979. More specifically, it seeks to answer the following questions:

1) What are the purposes of students in using the libraries? Are there differences in these purposes according to their sex, colleges to which they belong, academic year and level of academic achievement?

2) According to these same variables, how do the students differ in the following library practices: a) locating the materials which may provide the information they need; b) determining what facts and which generalizations are important and should be remembered from the materials they collected; and c) utilizing the materials which they read in areas where these are deemed needed for school or community use.

3) Do the variables sex, college academic year and level of academic achievement affect the acceptability or unacceptability of the students’ library practices?

4) What are the difficulties of students in the use of the library?

Methodology

In determining the sample, the researcher used the formula of Mildred B. Parten for each college population. The researcher made an open-ended survey on library practices and problems to help her structure her questionnaire items, after which, a pre-test had been administered to validate her questionnaire. After an item analysis on the questionnaire items, the final questions were framed to fit the purposes for which the research was intended.

Discussion

The variable sex is not an operant variable on the purposes of students on the use of the library but the variables, college, academic year and level of academic achievement appear to influence students’ library purposes.

A great number of students use the library only when required. This is a sad fact because it means that very few use the library for their personal growth which is in consonance with the finding that the smallest number and percentage of students go to the library for personal development. This may be due to lack of information on the value and use of the library facilities.

The variables such as sex, college, academic year and level of achievement are not significant determinants of the students’ library practices: a) in determining what facts and which generalizations are important and should be remembered from the materials they collected; c) in utilizing the materials which they read in areas which are deemed needed for school and community use.

Findings on hypothesis three showed that sex does not affect the quality of students’ library practices. However, the variables college, academic year and level of academic achievement account for the difference in the quality of students’ library practices.

Difficulties of students in the use of the library range from locating to utilizing information which are: a) the use of the indexes to periodical literature; b) use of the card catalo; c) use of the textbooks’ learning aids; d) use of the encyclopedia; e) use of the dictionary; f) determining the important points from what is read; and g) relying the important information read.

An Evaluation of the Current Bibliographic Awareness of the Population Center Foundation

Researcher: FE PERALTA SEGUNDO

Course: Master of Arts in Library Science

School: Philippine Women’s University

Subject Area: Current Awareness Services

Year of Graduation: 1980

Statement of the Problem

This study seek to evaluate the adequacy of the current awareness program of the Population Center Foundation Library (PCFL) through SDI approach as based on the objectives, functions and projects of the Population Center Foundation.

Methodology

The method of research used was descriptive evaluative with questionnaires as the data processing and statistical instrument for evaluation.

Findings

The highly trained PCFL ranked their standard library services “very adequate.” They did the same on the first three current specific awareness services, namely: distribution of list of new publications, routing of new periodicals received and distribution of content pages. They also believed that the rest of their specific current awareness services as well as the SDI services offered are all rated “adequate.”

Conclusions

Although the PCFL staff understandably considers the extent of the current awareness services of the PCFL adequate, the user’s “barely adequate” rating indicates some inadequacies which may be attributed to unequal emphasis on individual processes.

Reader notification/routing and content pages received a “fairly adequate” rating to prove that the institution has not put up a complete dossier of user personal profiles.

Special newsletter columns also received a “fairly adequate” profile presumably due to little attention accorded in this area.

The Working collection of the PCFL reflects considerable inadequacy in supporting the current awareness program and the SDI services.

The adequacy of the information dissemination program of the PCFL varies in the degree between the staff perception and the user perception.

The PCFL continues to cater a distinct clientele composed mainly of a policy making level group, an implementing level group, researchers of population related disciplines, students and others in order of their importance.

Recommendations

The Population Information center and Library needs an immediate re-assessment of its program of information gathering, processing transformation and dissemination in the light of the growing urgency of meeting the population problem.

To render the current awareness services of the PCFL adequate in all aspects, consideration must be made of the different neglected processes.

a) Staff expertise on the current awareness processes has to be up-dated.

b) Experimentation on the extent of use, needs of the different processes it recommended.

c) User-profiles on interests and needs require periodical chech-up

Library holdings have to be expanded two ways:

a) subject area coverage

b) volume count

The improvement of the overall dissemination program of the PCFL starts with perfecting the facilities for SDI.

The expansion of the SDI services should include users of other instruments. This would require the extension of the interview-questionnaire method to occasional users to provide the center with the necessary “user” profile to be kept for alerting services.

Introduction

The increased demand for higher education during the past few decades has resulted in the expansion of almost all colleges in the nation, into multipurpose institutions. Before one can fairly judge the effectivity of the school's program, it is necessary to examine the existing library resources since the quality of the library is as important as the quality of the faculty, and perhaps the single most important factor influencing the quality of a student's education.

Statement of the Problem

The purpose of this study was threefold: first to present a better picture of the state of academic libraries in Pangasinan; second, to evaluate the existing library resources against the Tentative Library Standards for Private Higher Education(PHE); and third, to formulate program /project recommendations by which these libraries could, within their financial means, arrive at these standards within a reasonable time. The three major areas of the programs studied were: a) objectives; b) administration; c) finance; d) collection and organization of materials; e) staff; f) services; and g) facilities.

Methodology

Data were collected from a survey questionnaire entitled "Higher Education Assessment and Development Survey on Library Resources." The schools selected for study totaled 13, and data were analyzed for comparison with Private Higher education Library Standards.

Findings

The Private Higher Education Tentative Library is at the moment an elitist standard among the thirteen academic libraries in Pangasinan. There are some institutions that are singularly outstanding based on the PHE Standards but there are a considerable number that fall below the desired standard of attainment prescribed by PHE.

Conclusion

The data concerning library objectives, physical facilities and equipment, library personnel, organization and administration, library collections and library budgeting revealed a condition that is almost tragic. Unless support from funding agencies are solicited these libraries can not attain the desired status. It is therefor strongly recommended that a College Library Assistance Program for the thirteen libraries be evolved to upgrade and improve their present status.

Recommendations

Recommendations formulated include a program of staff development, collection development and the improvement of the libraries' physical facilities for these libraries and the adoption of the PHE Standards by the Bureau of Higher Education, Ministry of Education and Culture as the requirement for recognition of institutions of higher learning.
