PAARL’S Kagulat-gulat na Programang Exciting Hong Kong

Nakakagulat at matagumpay ang katatapos pa lamang na aktiviti ng tinaguriang fully-engaged, member-driven na Asosasyong PAARL, Inc. Ang benchmarking sa mga laybrari ng Hong Kong na naganap kamakailan noong Okubre 19 hanggang 22 taong 2011 ay dinaluhan ng limamput-isang (51) partisipante kasama ang tseyr ng International Affairs na si Moran (FEU) at tatlong (3) opiser ng PAARL, Inc.: Manalo (TIPM), Baleva (CEU) at Ramos (DLSUM) at tseyr ng NOMELEC na si Molina. Di kasama sa bilang ang tatlong (3) koordineytor mula sa Travel Warehouse, Inc. na sina Love, Maled, Ryan at tatlong (3) mga Tsinong tour guide na sina Herman, Ricky at Elsa.

“Eto Na Nga,” sambit madalas ng mga WB ng Ateneo at batambatang mga kawani ng laybrari ang maaaring gamiting linggwistikang deskripsyon para sambitin, likhaing pasalita at mapadaling mailarawan ang natamong kamalayang panglaybrari hatid ng Exciting Hong Kong: Benchmarking Tour of Hong Kong Libraries lakip ang isang uri ng relasyong pahahalagahan ng lahat hanggang maisaganap muli ang isa pang nilulunggating Cool China sa taong 2012, isa na namang benchmarking na nawa’y maging tunguhin ng lahat para sa LIBRARIES FOR PROGRESS o AKLATAN PARA SA KAUNLARAN ng bansa, pangkasalukuyang tema ng pambansang pagdiriwang ng Linggo ng Aklatan sa darating na Nobyembre.

Ang mga pandaigdigang paliparan o daungan ng Pilipinas, Hong Kong at Macau ay panimulang mga angkop na lugar ng benchmarking. Nawa’y maging misyon ng mga laybrari sa kalupaan ng Pilipinas ang: to wow the guest! at maging layunin ay: to increase the number of guests. Papaano? Tanggapin unti-unti at gamitin ang babanggiting isang uri ng metapora ng paglilingkod o pilosopiya ng paglilingkod o kung tawagin ay isang service philosophy na: to make people away from home feel that they are among friends and are really appreciated! Ipinamalas naman, di ng mga Instik bagkus ng dalawang Awstralyanong mga direktor ng University of Hong Kong at Institute of Education ang teknikong Disney na siya namang karaniwan sa mga nagtataguyod ng otentikong pakikitungo at kabilang dito ang mga laybrari.

Hindi pa naman huli ang panahon upang tuluyan ng isaganap o isaalang-alang ang paggamit ng isang uri ng hospitalidad tungo sa otentikong pakikitungo ng mga kawani ng lahat ng mga laybrari sa kani-kanilang mga kostumer, pribado o pampubliko, akademiko man o hindi. Ayon kay Carol A. King (1985), ginagamit, karamihan sa mga organisasyon, ang hospitalidad bilang metapora (talinghaga) o takigrapya (preskripsyon) upang ilarawan para sa kanilang mga empleyado ang isang uri ng relasyon sa mga kostumer bilang mga panauhin. Ang mga metapora ay kapaki-pakinabang upang maihayag ang mga nilulunggating mga pagpapahalagang kultural sa isang samahan, gayunpaman, ang mga empleyado ay nararapat na malaman kung ano ang ibig sabihin ng mga metapora (talinghaga) para sa kanila, at kinakailangang kumilos ayon sa mga pagpapahalagang hain ng metapora.

Ang metaporang ito ay inaasahang magiging instrumento upang manumbalik at punuin ng mga tagatangkilik maging ang mga interyor at espasyo ng mga silid-aklatan.


Ang teknikong Disney, namalas ito ng mga partisipante, ay maaring maging modelo tungo sa minimithing HOSPITALITY-ORIENTED LIBRARIES & PERSONNEL. Maglahok nito sa aspetong marketing: WE’RE GLAD YOU’RE HERE! at THE SHIP IS IN. COME JOIN US. FOOD AND DRINK FOR ALL.

Hinahayag nito ang isang sosyal na ritwal na kinakailangan upang maitampok ang tagatangkilik bilang isang panauhin na pakabubusugin at kakalingain ng husto. Umaasa ang panauhin ng magandang bati, paanyaya, pasasalamat at pagkilala bago ang kanyang paglisan. Kung di nagampanan ang sosyal na ritwal na ito, may kakulangan ang pakikitungo, at maaaring di masiyahan ang tagatangkilik.

Ang sikreto ng pagiging mahusay ay SERVICE, SERVICE, SERVICE, ayon kay Wachtveilt.

Ayon kay G. Peter Sidorko, peters@hkucc.hku.hk, walang namumuong kompetisyon ang mga laybrari ng Singapore at Hong Kong at kanilang inilalahok sa kanilang benchmarking ang nagtatanyagang mga himpilan ng mga eroplano. Ang karanasang ito ay magdidiin pa sa mas malalim na dulot ng pagdalaw ng mga partisipante sa isang kasino, mga pasyalan, kainan, shopping malls, habang malas ang pagdagsa ng mga turista sa katanyagan at kakaibahan ng kalupaan ng Macau.

Ang tinurang ito ni Sidorko at bahagyang naipaliwanag din ni G. Michael Robert Owen Robinson, robinson@ied.edu.hk, ay kapani-paniwala. Napapanahon na ang mga kawani ay makitaan ng:

to have the ability to affect the human experience by creating powerful impressions- even brief moments of truth-which may last a lifetime.

Sapat ang mga oras na inilaan para sa tatlong laybraring binisita: Hong Kong Central Library sa Causeway Bay, University of Hong Kong sa Kowloon at Institute of Education sa New Territory.

Labindalawang lalaki (12) at tatlumput-siyam (39) na mga babae, tatlong (3) may kasamang asawa, apat (4) na mag-iina, sampung (10) direktor ng mga laybrari, isang (1) bumbero at manggagawang IT, tatlo (3) na may doctoral degrees, tatlong (3) mula sa malayong bahagi ng Luzon at isa (1) mula sa Bisaya, isang (1) outstanding librarian ng PRC, tatlong (3) kandidato para sa 2012 Board, tatlong (3) datihang presidente ng PAARL ang bumuo sa grupo.

Siyam (9) sa tatlumput-isa (31) ay pampublikong institusyon. Pinakamaraming nakibahagi ay mula sa APS (7) at CEU (7) kasunod ang anim (6) mula sa QCPL. Tatlo (3) ay mula sa SBC at tigdadalawa (2) mula sa ADMU, PWU, RTU, UE, UC, TIPQC. Tig-iisa ay mula naman sa AdU, ALBASA, AU, DLSUM, FEU, MP, OC, OP, SIS, TIPM, TIPQC, TUA, UA, UERMMC, at USLT.

Hospitality of PAARL’s Outstanding Libraries

The kind of hospitality demonstrated by the director of the Rizal Library of the Ateneo de Manila University, Mrs. Lourdes David, is commendable. Assisting her was a lovely reference librarian named Karryl Sagun. They led and served as tour guides in and outside of the libraries of ADMU. David iterated that PAARL’s TOUR OF Outstanding Libraries, a benchmarking-visit to terrific libraries in Metro Manila like those found at De La Salle University, University of Santo Tomas and Asian Development Bank, was a special group to her. She managed to handle the group until six o’clock in the evening last Monday (August 22), expressed her sincere thanks to PAARL, Inc. and told participants to go back, bring others and tour around libraries, museums and special collections of ADMU namely, the American Historical Collection, ALiWW, Pardo de Tavera, Matteo Ricci Study Hall, Microform Reading Center, and the new building of the Rizal Library for free. This is a privilege given to librarians as mentioned by the good director who also teaches Library Science.

Joiners from Cabanatuan and Silang as well were amazed by the appearances of the buildings, interior areas and places of information commons of the four visited libraries. “It’s a good feeling to have discovered ADB’s Espresso Book Machine as the library’s concrete answer to its newfound service philosophy, that is, its demand-driven attitude towards clients,” said by an IS librarian-joiner. Only ADB and Tokyo, Japan have this more than 5-million peso machine. The EBM uses a software and a database that can print a reading material of your choice - accurate color, size, and content – just in five minutes. It works like an ATM or drive-thru service, by just pressing some keys, in a little while comes a fresh-from-the-oven, hot copy of a bound material.

Very unique and excellent are UST’s art and discipline in the aspect of archiving. The guests were wowed witnessing how UST manages to care about materials or documents of institutional, personal, historical significance. UST supports and believes an industry - an archiving industry it seriously maintains, preserves and protects from harm. It is a must for anyone to take time to go upper level of UST’s library, Miguel de Benavidez Library, in order to explore what one never sees daily behind doors and interior rooms of the said library. You may contact Ms. Ana Rita Alomo, one good facilitator-librarian, if you want library surprises and to say “Wow” just like one Chinese librarian who signed up and those who came, three each, from Letran-Manila, San Beda and Adventist University of the Philippines.

For first timers, they would never forget their stay at the library of the De La Salle University. DLSU is known for its extremely well-ventilated sections, air-conditioned floors, very clean spaces and many, many, many reading materials to choose from. Its library environment for readers and others guests is an attraction. The participants would like to sincerely thank the friendly librarians who assisted them last Monday (August 22) namely, Ms. Willian Frias and Ms. Marita Valerio.

Noteworthy and worn is every guest’s white souvenir shirt provided by C & E thru Ms. Cham Carlos.

The libraries of DLSU, UST, ADB and ADMU were featured and are known as Outstanding Libraries of the “fully-engaged, member-driven association,” PAARL, Inc, 2003, 2005, 2002, 2006, respectively. Included in this activity as participants and organizers were some of the officers of the Association: Roderick B. Ramos (President), Carolyn De Jesus (Secretary), Cecil Lobo (Auditor), Maria Theresa Villanueva (Membership Chair), Sonny Boy Manalo (PRO). Those who helped prepare the tour were Sonia Gementiza (Vice-president), Sonia Lourdes David (Tresurer); board directors: Victoria Baleva at Olivia Haler and Mr. Christopher Paras (ex-officio)

Hospitalidad ng PAARL’s Outstanding Libraries

Hospitalidad ng PAARL’s Outstanding Libraries

Katangi-tangi ang hospitalidad na ipinamalas ng direktor ng Rizal Library sa Ateneo de Manila University, Gng. Lourdes David. Katulong ang morenang palangiting si Karryl Sagun, magandang laybraryan ng referens, si Lourdes, at siya na nga mismo ang gumabay o nagsilbing library tour guide sa paggala ng mga laybraryan sa loob at labas ng mga silid-aklatan ng ADMU. Binigkas niyang espesyal ang grupong PAARL’S TOUR OF OUTSTANDING LIBRARIES na bumisita upang mag-benchmarking sa apat na mga teripikong mga aklatan sa kalakhang Maynila na matatagpuan sa DLSU, ang Miguel de Benavidez Library ng UST, at Asian Development Bank. Hanggang alas sais ng gabi noong Lunes (Agosto 22), otentikong inihayag ni Lourdes ang pasasalamat sa PAARL, Inc. at palagiang pag-imbita sa mga kalahok na dumako, bumalik, magsama at mamasyal sa Rizal Library at mga moog para sa museo at ispesyal na mga koleksyon ng libre o walang bayad tulad ng American Historical Collection, ALiWW, Pardo de Tavera, Matteo Ricci Study Hall, Microform Reading Center, at bagong gusali ng Rizal Library. Ito ay isang pribilihiyong laan sa ating mga kapwa laybraryan ayon pa sa napakabuting guro na rin ng Library Science.

Napamangha ang mga taga-Cabanatuan, maging ang mga taga-Silang sa mga itsura ng mga bilding, loob-looban ng mga information commons ng mga nabanggit na mga pinuntahan. “Kapanga-pangarap ang taguriang Espresso Book Machine ng ADB,” wika ng isang laybraryan ng isang internasyunal na eskwelahan. Milyong piso ang nailagak sa makinang ito ayon sa isang namamahalang Indiyan upang tumugon sa demand-driven (banggit ni Gng. Nelia Balagapo) na gawi ng mga kawani ng ADB. Ang ADB at Tokyo, Japan pa lamang ang mayroon nito. Ang EBM ay gumagamit ng isang software at sa pamamagitan ng isang deytabeys, maiiprint nito ang katumbas na librong pinili, tumpak ang kulay, sukat at laman ng libro sa loob lamang ng limang minuto. Parang isa itong ATM o drive-thru service, kadudutdut sa teklado, maya-maya, nariyan na ang nilulunggating mainit-init mula sa oven na babasahin. Literal talagang mainit-init na libro ang ididispensa o ihuhulog sa saluhan ng Espresso Book Machine.

Kakaiba at ekselente ang disiplina at sining ng mga taga-UST sa aspeto ng pag-aarkayv. Napa-WOW! O napabilib ang tatlungpung (30) turista sa nasaksihang pag-aaruga sa mga materyales o dokumentong institusyunal, personal, historikal at iba pa. Marururok mula sa kanila ang isang industriya sa isang akademikong establisamento: ang industriyang gagastusan, pananatilihin habangbuhay, ipipriserba, iingatan at ilalayo mula sa mga panganib. Huwag kalimutang dumako sa mataas na palapag ng Miguel de Benavidez Library upang matunghayan kung ano ang di nakikita sa araw-araw na matutuklasan lamang sa mga interyor na mga lugar nito. Maaring kontakin si Bb. Ana Rita Alomo, mahusay na pasiliteytor-laybraryan, kung ninanais mabighani at mapa-WOW tulad ng isang babaing laybraryang kasama mula sa Tsina, tigatatlong partisipante mula sa Letran, San Beda, Adventist University of the Philippines, TIP-QC, College of the Immaculate Conception!

Di naman makakalimutan ng karamihan ang kanilang unang-unang pagyapak sa gusali ng DLSU. Maaliwalas, malinis, may kaliwanagan ang bawat sulok, malamig, umpok ng mga libro at kasangkapan ang paligid at kahali-halina ang envayronment sa loob ng laybrari ng DLSU. Ito’y mga pananalitang karaniwang mauulinigan mula sa sinumang dadako. Lubos nilang pinasasalamatan, lalung-lalo na ang uri ng pakikipagniig at pag-aalay ng oras ng dalawang laybraryang unang kanilang nakadaupang-palad noong umaga ng Lunes (Agosto 22): Gng. Willian Frias at Gng. Marita Valerio sa bawat isa.

Nakasuot ng puting damit na may disenyo ang mga partisipante bilang souvenir o alaala na mula sa kabutihang-loob ng C & E sa pamagitan ni Gng Cham Carlos.

Ang mga laybrari ng DLSU, UST, ADB at ADMU ay tampok o tinaguriang mga Outstanding Libraries ng fully-engaged-member-driven association, PAARL, Inc. ayon sa pagkakasunod-sunod, 2003, 2005, 2002, at 2006. Kasama sa aktiviti na ito bilang partisipante at tagaorganisa ang ilan sa mga opiser ng PAARL, Inc.: Pangulong Roderick B. Ramos (manunulat nitong artikulo); Carolyn De Jesus (Secretarya), Cecil Lobo (Tagasuri), Maria Theresa Villanueva (Tseyr ng Pagsapi), Sonny Boy Manalo (PRO). Katuwang sina Sonia Gementiza (Bise-presidente); Sonia Lourdes David (Tesorero); mga direcktor ng lupon na sina Victoria Baleva at Olivia Haler at dating pangulong Christopher Paras.

PAARL -NBS Bring Happy Mornings to Bibliotherapy Attendees

The collaboration of fully-engaged member driven PAARL and National Bookstore did not only give happy mornings to their bibliotherapy attendees @ Superbranch-Cubao beside Gateway, the 2-day modular training program held on May 19 to 20 but also allowed them to welcome an appropriate amount of meta-cognition about bibliocounseling, bibliopsychology, bookmatching, literatherapy, library therapeutics, guided reading, biblioguidance.

Foundations on reading (Arias) and therapy through books (Gatmaitan) revealed the needed richness of a sound knowledge on reading and wide-ranging book prescription work. The process, (Macahilig) from identification, selection, presentation, to follow-up is attractive. The well-being of both the librarians and collections (Gagatiga) and engaging reading guidance (Cobaria) in and out of the library workplace are a prerequisite to feel and hear the synchronicity of the heart’s to a poem’s rhythm and beats.

More than 60 very focused individuals from 35 mostly private participating institutions (6, public). From King Fahd Specialist Hospital-Dammam of Saudi Arabia, Ms. Chona Panganiban spent two days of her vacation and interacted during sessions. 44 attendees came from NCR while CAR had 3. CALABARZON sent 13 while 3 from Region V. Mindanao had one grantee, Region III had 5 and Pangasinan had 1 attendee.

Congratulations to 12 PAARL’s grantee-members who enjoyed 0-registration fee, recipients of Gagatiga’s book gifts: UST attendees, Prof. Cobaria (PNU), Most Active Participants, Ms. Jocelyn Ladlad (DLSU-Manila) and Mr. Reynaldo Penalba (DSLU-Dasma), Best Dressed Participants from Manila Tytana Colleges, Mrs. Erlinda Gonzales and Mr. Nelson Macalandag.

Bibliyoterapiya, Isang Library Innovation ni G. Roderick Baturi Ramos

Ayon sa ppt. nila Dr. Dale Pehrsson at Dr. Paula McMillen, ang bibliyoterapiya ay may mga ngalang tulad ng mga sumusunod:

bibliocounseling, bibliopsychology, bookmatching, literatherapy, library therapeutics, guided reading, biblioguidance.

Nakakatuwang banggitin isa-isa ang mga ito at ang lahat ng mga ito ay pumapatungkol sa isinaad na ang bibliyoterapiya ay “Treatment through books” (Pardeck & Pardeck , 1998) o kaya naman ay “Therapeutic use of literature” (Cohen, 1993).

Isang kalusog-lusog na lugar para sa kaluluwa ang laybrari at nagdudulot ito ng katarsiya sa sinumang dumadako at magbabasa dito. Ang pagbabasa ay isa sa mga nangungunang terapyutikong gawain pangalawa sa pisikal na pag-eehersisyo bago pa man nauso ang mga aklatang inilaan para sa mga pasyente ng mga ospital. Natayo ang mga laybraring pampasyente upang aliwin at iengeyj ang mga ito sa pag-iisip sa mga positibong bagay habang may dinaramdam o habang nanatili ng may katagalan sa mga pagamutan. Aktibo ang American Library Association o ALA at naniniwala rin ito na malaki ang maitutulong ng bibliyoterapiya sa agad-agad na paggaling ng may sakit. Tuluyang nagamit ang instrumentong ito noong panahon ng digmaan na kung saaan ang mga laybraryan ay makikitang nagbabasa ng mga libro sa mga sundalong naging biktima dulot ng karahasan ng World Wars.

Sa Britanya, isa ang mga laybraryan (20%) sa mga grupo ng propesyunal ang lumalahok ng bibliyoterapiya sa kanilang trabaho at mas malaki ang porsyento kumpara sa mga nasa social working (10%) at mga nars (11%). Ito ay ayon sa sarbey na ginawa ni Forrest noong 1998. Nagkamit ang mga sikolohista ng 57 na porsyento.

Ang biblioterapiya ay ikinukunsidera kong isang library innovation. Pansinin natin ang mga ibinabanderang mga serbisyo sa buong mundo ngayon. Dalawin natin ang ilang websayt ng mga laybrari.
Ang University of Nevada ay may BEP o Bibliotherapy Education Project. Naniniwala ang unibersidad sa labis na kapangyarihan ng literatura at mga salaysay o kuwento bilang terapyutikong kasangkapan. Nakalaan ang kanilang panahon upang iasist ang sinuman tungo sa epektibo at at mahusay na paggamit ng literatura sa kliyente bilang terapiya.

May Book Break na tinatawag ang Chelsea Library. May handog rin silang mga libreng biskwit at kape sa mga makikipagtalakayan lingo-lingo sa nabanggit na silid-aklatan ng UK. Ang Book Break ay isang libreng paanyaya sa lahat na makinig sa mga mabubuting literatura mula sa grupong magbabasa at ninanais makapagbigay ng kakaibang paraan para sa kakaibang karanasan sa mga dumadako at di pa nakakadako sa Chelsea Library.

Mahihinuha mula sa pananaliksik ni Brewster (2007) na ang aklat o babasahin ay medisina para sa kaluluwa at kaya naman ang taguri sa laybrari ay isang parmasiya na maaring pagkunan base sa mga preskripsyong payo ng mga laybraryan, sikolohista at iba pa.

May mga bibliotherapist ang mga laybrari sa UK. Kinikilala nila ng kaunti ang kliyente bilang indibiduwal. Nakikipag-usap sila at tinatanong kung ano ang gustong-gustong basahin ng kliyente, ipinapaalam sa mga ito ang kainamang makilala at mapahalagahan pa ng husto ang mga lokal na layrari, at kasamang hinahalughog ang mga ito para sa mga babasahing ikatutuwa ng mga kliyente. Kaakibat dito ang pagbubuo ng mga grupo upang mag-usap-usapan patungkol sa nabasa at magpahi-pahinga habang mayroong isang tasa ng tsaa o kape sa harapan o sa mesa.

Nasimulan noon pa man ng mga laybrari at laybraryan ang mga gawaing may kaugnayan sa bibliyoterapiya at maaasahang higit pa sa nangyari noong 1930 ang matutunghayan sa kasalukuyang panahon: to compile lists of written material that helped people modify their thoughts, feelings, or behaviors for therapeutic purposes, with the assistance of counselors “prescribed selected literature for aptrons experiencing problems (Pardeck, 1994).
