Dear Colleagues and Friends,

Warm greetings from PAARL!

The Philippine Association of Academic/Research Librarians Inc. (PAARL) is pleased to invite you to a two-day National Seminar-Workshop on the theme “Towards Innovating Technical Services: Viewpoints for Advanced Resources Management”. This continuing professional activity will be held on August 26 – 27, 2009 at the 6th Floor, The National Library of the Philippines Auditorium, T.M. Kalaw St., Manila.

The theme will specifically evolve on the following objectives:

1. To assess the current status of Technical Services in Philippine academic libraries as to how it radically improved or changed the library system, the
library profession and the delivery of library resources and services through advance library technologies.

2. To learn new ideas and methodologies on how to perfectly manage library resources in times of tough economic crisis and high costs of materials brought about by online technologies.

3. To review the existing and latest procedures, guidelines and standards in the organization and care of library resources and identify its significance to the present day Philippine academic libraries.

The seminar is intended for all librarians, information professionals and library support staff. A seminar fee of P2,500 will be charged to participants inclusive of meals and snacks, seminar kits, handouts, and certificates.

For inquiries and reservations, please contact the undersigned or any of the association’s officers/directors.
