My Life as a Teacher Librarian, Post COVID Era (3 of 3)

This  is part 3 of my reflections on the essay part of the nomination form for Binan's Outstanding Librarian Award. 

1.       Achievement of Projects

·       TRAILS and The Pioneer are on-going projects and programs that assess and support the research skills of students in the Beacon Academy.

·       Early Readers’ Project is an on-going project of the Beacon Academy that the library and its staff are key players in the documentation, archiving and distribution of early reader books to the public and the identified partner schools of the Academy. 

·       Storytelling for Growth and Healing: Module and Guide to Bibliotherapy is an on-going program that I have started in 2020 as an answer to alleviating the plight of children in the evacuation centers in Batangas during the Taal Volcano disaster. The guide and module is available on line and it is free for download.

2.      Involvement and Participation in the Community

·       Buhay Binanense – a program that the Beacon Academy library staff leads and will be in implementation in 2024. It started with the library’s application as affiliate to the Binan Studies Center to gather and build a Buhay Binanense Collection in the library. The purpose of the program is to gain an understanding of local knowledge, history, culture, arts and industries of Binan, Laguna. Specifically, the activity has the following objectives:

o   To introduce students to historical and heritage sites in Binan so that they can appreciate the local culture and knowledge of the city where their school is located;

o   To bring them to local industries and businesses in Binan as part of a continuing learning experience of Binan’s history, art, culture and industries. 

·       Binan Studies Center Affiliate – Regular book donations to the Binan Studies Center
