August 19 Thursday 10:30-11:30 PLENARY Multifunction Hall

and needs of a growing and expanding library customer database. These entail 
delivering of international information, cultural and multilingual services.

Parallel Session on InfoLit Promises & Tools: Vehicles for Achieved Authentic 
Learning for All Ages
August 19 Thursday 1:00-3:00 BREAKOUT SESSION AVR 1
DESCRIPTION InfoLit skills, when translated to learning, become a basis for 
individual’s lifelong learning. Here, specifically, the librarian’s expertise 
is desired and acknowledge not only because she has permanent access to 
resources, online or not, but her art and discipline can assist persons to 
become more self-directed. This subtheme will allow the expert to present her 
portfolios and modules to assist participants to bring their own all-ages 
clients to where they should be- achieved authentic learning. The session 
expert will facilitate this activity and engage librarians to create a

Parallel Session on Upgrading Technical Competencies of Professional and 
Paraprofessional Library Personnel
August 19 Thursday 1:00-3:00 BREAKOUT SESSION AVR 2
DESCRIPTION Evidently, the need to chart/design new roles for technical 
services entails upgrading competencies among professional and paraprofessional 
library personnel. Technology problems, for example, encourage library people 
to be ready and accept cancellation of large library projects. One specific 
inquiry for the example is asked: Why do systems fail? Why specific problems 
persist? When systems fail to respond? What happens? This sub-theme will try to 
collect technical service challenges that they represent and examples of how 
these can be met. Lessons shall be earned from each. Workshop attendees shall 
re-check development policies and conduct a regular review progress over 
management of integrated library systems, discovery tools, and institutional 
repositories including managing metadata and normalization rules in order to 
prevent similar failures to come.

Speaker: Carina Samaniego MANILA OBSERVATORY
Parallel Session on Creative Archiving
August 19 Thursday 1:00-3:00 BREAKOUT SESSION AVR 3

or with charge, can offer to libraries and librarians, primarily, to market 
archives offices as exciting sources for information and records. Cyberspace is 
a major source of advantage for initiatives that maximizes public benefit. This 
session sub-theme introduces and makes use of some online space where archives 
can creatively functions, serves a potential market and endorse record groups 
and items. The facilitator shall set a workshop for participants to appreciate 
and utilize Internet/and or e-tools and modules, optimizing digital promise, to 
overtly shape the way clients view archives.

Parallel Session on Competitive & Saleable E-Content for Philippine Libraries
August 19 Thursday 3:00-5:00 BREAKOUT SESSION AVR 1
DESCRIPTION For many, E-Content topics have included institutional 
repositories, “place as library,” digital preservation, course management 
systems, online edu­cation, e-scholarship, digital library col­lections, and 
much more (Rentfrow, 2007). Attendees will witness the latest technology in 
e-learning and be able to understand the process of developing high quality 
e-content, as well as expertise for generating such content over the long term. 
The session will provide technical assistance and support to librarians and 
other experts based in colleges and universities for the development of 
e-content in Philippine setting. The inclusion of e-content in learning is now 
inevitable, and this topic is designed to meet the new challenges, and to help 
librarians take the lead in this newly emerging field.

Speaker: Elizabeth Peralejo, ATENEO DE MANILA UNIVERSITY
Parallel Session on Audio-visual Services Management
August 19 Thursday 3:00-5:00 BREAKOUT SESSION AVR 2
DESCRIPTION The value of audiovisual services to the library comes from what 
the library staff set for the forthcoming years, specifically, purposes and 
priorities to put forward for its clients. Desirable services are itemized in 
the strategic plan this session group will create: measurable objectives 
(service goals) and representative activities. The session expert, while in the 
process, shall assist participants to fully welcome generation of clients who 
are born with the chip whose expectations- format agnostic, nomadic, 
multitasking; way of learning- experiential, collaborative, integrated; and, 
beliefs- principled, adaptive, direct are distinctively different from previous 
generations in their use of information (Abram & Luther, 2004). It is expected 
of the speaker and his participants of this session-workshop to transform 
healthy readers and library servicing staff while both are connected, engaged 
and interact with the online world.

Speaker: Lourdes David ATENEO DE MANILA UNIVERSITY
Parallel Session on Excellent & Practical Tips for Acquiring Information 
Objects and Maximizing Public & Private Partnerships
August 19 Thursday 3:00-5:00 BREAKOUT SESSION AVR 3
DESCRIPTION Success stories about public-private partnerships are inspiring and 
extremely moving. These will be shared and serve as springboard for a workshop. 
In terms of acquisition and digitization, the invited session theme expert will 
bind participants to heavily realize, feel and embark on acquisition’s work 
that brings in and uses PPPs- public and private players. Session’s output will 
draw conclusions as to how each participant representing his/her institution 
would benefit from public-private partnerships. It will also reflect probable 
partnership guidelines, technology issues, project specifics and the expert’s 
practical guidance in building up a partnership.

Speaker: Ana Maria Fresnido DE LA SALLE UNIVERSITY-MANILA
Parallel Session on MARC Utilization and Content
August 20 Thursday 8:00-10:00 BREAKOUT SESSION AVR 1
DESCRIPTION The emergence of the MARC record in the late 1960s enabled a new 
era for sharing bibliographic data. MARC provides a standard record structure 
for encoding and exchanging bibliographic data. The MARC record itself has 
evolved in the past 30 years into a complex encoding scheme with very rich 
content designation to accommodate bibliographic data for many different 
formats of materials (Moen, Miksa, Marsh, 2005). This session will attempt to 
discuss the empirical evidence to document MARC 21 and explore its evolution as 
content designation for patterns of availability and effects on its use. It 
will also investigate a methodological approach to understand the factors 
contributing to current levels of MARC content designation use and 
relationships with the cataloging enterprise.

Speaker: Sharon M. Esposo UNIVERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES-DILIMAN
Parallel Session on My 2011 Library & Web Services
August 20 Friday 8:00-10:00 BREAKOUT SESSION AVR 2

provide exceptional facilities and services. This session-workshop shall 
feature the facilitator’s best highlights of her My 2011 Library & Web Services 
that showcase how (People) and what (IT) have- plans, management and delivery- 
for goals’ full extent of what is introduced to the clients. Specifically, the 
session expert shall assist participants to reflect on expert’s practical 
guidance and utilize practices & human behavior pattern after the expert’s 
model of My 2011 Library & Web Services. The technology plan, that is produced 
and a workshop output, is hopefully, aimed to be proto-type model taking into 
consideration the need for users’ analysis, progressive attitude toward 
collection development & services, and utilization of library space & interiors.

Speaker: Anarita Alomo UNIVERSITY OF SANTO TOMAS
Parallel Session on Libraries as Problem-based Learning Environments Across 
Reader Services for Authentic Learning
20 Friday 8:00-10:00 BREAKOUT SESSION AVR 3
DESCRIPTION Authentic learning typically focuses on real-world, complex 
problems and their solutions, using role-playing exercises, problem-based 
activities, case studies, and participation in virtual communities of 
practice(Lombardi, 2007). This positions libraries and their personnel to 
engage in the process of working towards the understanding of a resolution of a 
problem. This session’s theme will stimulate problem-based learning which 
entail a different library experience both for the clients and the staff of the 
library. The expert will introduce PBL as a reader service tool for delivering 
information literacy and course-related library instruction. Also, the 
facilitator shall encourage librarians to collaborate with teachers on 
providing quality library experiences while clients acquire 
information-gathering skills.

Speaker: Fe Angela Verzosa DE LA SALLE UNIVERSITY-MANILA
Parallel Session on Operating an Archives Shop
August 20 Friday 10:00-12:00 BREAKOUT SESSION AVR 1
DESCRIPTION This workshop is an ideal opportunity to explore the planning, 
development, and implementation of exhibitions and displays in an archival 
setting. Participants will get practical training and theoretical knowledge of 
developing an archives shop in a special collections setting from the initial 
idea through planning, exhibiting, and beyond. Be part of a discussion on 
collaboration beyond the archives - advertising and marketing the exhibit, 
outreach and education, adding impact through the development of related 
events, working with the media to publicize events, reaching a broader 
audience, and developing a digital component to the exhibit. Also included are 
practical tips on the use of readily available materials to create a 
professional, informative, and attractive exhibit without compromising the 
materials.

Speaker: Nimfa Maniago HOLY ANGEL UNIVERSITY
Parallel Session on Library Personnel’s Health & Productivity: 2011 Model
August 20 Friday 10:00-12:00 BREAKOUT SESSION AVR 2
DESCRIPTION Nowadays, institutions are inclined to encourage employees to 
improve their lifestyle. Today there are companies that have their own in-house 
gyms and work out facilities to promote their employees’ wellness. The content 
of this session is slightly different from other mind bugling topics. Apart 
from the normal advice on how to live a healthy lifestyle, a connection between 
health and productivity in the library workplace will be discussed. 
Participants will gain knowledge and tools on how to improve their own health 
and how this will improve their productivity. For libraries, it means greater 
outputs and more satisfaction and possibly faster promotions and rewarding 
incentives for librarians. This could result in better equipped personnel and a 
higher level of motivation towards their careers. In the end, when each 
individual improves his own lifestyle and institutions benefits from employing 
more balanced people.
