LRC Services
aims to provide library assistance to the school community as they:
strive for excellence and aspire for global competency;
develop and practice positive values;
demonstrate a love for life-long learning and a desire to achieve a better quality of life;
recognize and develop their multiple intelligences working on the achievement of their goals;
equip and enable themselves with 21st century skills to be proficient and ready for college, entrepreneurship or work; and
care for the environment.
At the beginning of the school year, the students are given a short orientation on the library resources, programs & services offered, library rules and regulations, book borrowing and returning policies/procedures and different sections of the library.
This is an educational program in the form of library instruction that develops the basic research skills of the students and teaches them the wise use of library resources to become independent and lifelong learners..
Air conditioning and proper lighting are well-maintained to give comfort to all library users.
Students borrow books by means of scanning their school IDs for quick processing and accurate recording and proper monitoring of their borrowed books or other library materials.
The library adopts an open-shelf system where the students have the direct access to the books/other library materials and can choose the book that they want to read or borrow for home use. Newspapers, journals and other periodicals are also provided to keep them updated with the current events.
Follett Destiny Software is a web-based library management system that allows fast and easy searching of library resources.
Selection and acquisition of new books and other library materials are closely coordinated by the Faculty-Library committee members to ensure the proper choice and immediate acquisition of books and other instructional materials. New acquisitions of the library are displayed in one area of the library.
The library provides computers with internet connection that can be used by the students for their online research and fast retrieval of information. Tablets, Kindles, and iPad are also stationed inside the library. Printing, document scanning, and photocopying services are available in the library with a minimal fee.
Adequate use of technology is easily accessible and available to enhance and promote the teaching-learning process through the use of an air-conditioned, well-lit and spacious audio-visual room for film-viewing, small group discussions or interest clubs meetings and a wide-array of instructional and self-help learning modules in DVD.
Due to the prevailing circumstances where face-to-face classes remain suspended, a virtual reference service is made available to administrators, teachers, and students via Facebook. Named as Statefields Library Instant Messaging or Stacey LIM, it also posts announcements and offers engaging activities to the students.
