From the University Librarian's Desk
Greetings!
The mandate of the University Library is to deliver information services and proactively support the University’s quadruple functions: teaching, research, extension and resource generation. UPLB is the leading academic institution in agriculture, forestry, and other related fields. Consequently, the University Library houses the most comprehensive collection of scientific literatures in agriculture and allied sciences in the Philippines. This wealth of information was not only acquired from various sources worldwide but also from knowledge, which the University itself generates.
It is a great honor with humility to pronounce that our Library has gone beyond four walls. Though we are not leading in terms of a modern library in the region, yet, we are not left behind. We pursue our aspirations with guiding principle that is best services for our valued clients that give emphasis to availability, ease of access, economy, efficiency, and accountability to the community. Thus, we took advantage of the information and communication technology (ICT) offers for efficient services that our clients deserve.
We foster students to be dynamic and develop inquisitive attitude towards a more reliable and scholarly literatures for their academic information needs. Thus, regular schedule of seminars/orientations on information literacy are included as part of our tasks.
We would appreciate very much if you could browse our modest home page and search with the information that we would like to impart.
“Maraming salamat po. Mabuhay!”
