Its More Fun in the Library


                Library is very useful facility in every student. The library helps a good deal in spreading knowledge and education. It is the appropriate place where we can study our notes, doing our research works and where we can borrow books anytime. The library is located below the University Chapel. I spend my time in the library during my vacant hours. In the library, there is no disturbance and everybody can read with rapt attention. Aside from studying and reading books, the usual thing that we do with my friends and classmates is talking, beautifying ourselves and enjoying the good ventilation that pampers our skin. The freezy aircon that comforts me and turn me to sleep right away.  Library offers a wide variety of choices. The library was divided into sections or areas such as Reference section, Circulation Section, Discussion area and Periodical section .






The Reference section contains books such as:  Encyclopedias, Dictionaries, Atlases, Gazetteers, Biographical Directories, Almanacs, Yearbooks, Pamphlets and also includes Filipiniana,Augustiniana, Panayana, Rizaliana and Undergraduate Theses. Some people study in the library and some would like to borrow books to read at home. 






Circulation area contains of books to be borrowed, one can easily borrow the book of one’s choice. Fine is charged when books are not returned on time as stated in the library rules. If we have books that we would like to search we can easily locate it through OPAC or Online Public Access Catalog, an online database of materials held by a library or group of libraries. Users search a library catalog principally to locate books and other material available at a library.




Discussion area in which a group of  students can have a group study. Lastly is the Periodical section that contains newspapers, magazines and etc. We also have a Graduate School and Law Library located at the 2nd floor of CAS Building. For my four years of struggling in this University,there is always be a library I know like a person- politely quiet but endlessly informative,amazingly knowledgeable but charmingly discreet,open to everyone yet subject to your every whim,and sadly,flammable if one isn't careful because library is the place where i can get all what I want in my studies additional materials to support  my studies and easy methods in solving problems. And there is a saying that Without Libraries,we have no past and no future.
