IN-HOUSE WORKSHOP ON CITATIONS AND REFERENCING
The seminar is attended by the third year college students of College of Business Education spearheaded by Mrs. Darlene Sabandal, a research faculty.
Students were updated on APA 7th format citations, instruction on how to access information on online databases like Proquest and EBSCO, which are the college’s subscribed e-journals, and other free open-online resources and the installation of Zotero, a free and open-source reference management program for keeping track of bibliographic information. During a tutorial on managing references with Zotero, Dr. Garcia explained to the students how simple it is to store, cite and manage references using this software.
If you need any help using Zotero or managing your bibliographic references, you can come to the Main Library or send us an email at jblcf.library@gmail.com. You can also contact our virtual library assistant, ASK LISA https://jblib.jblfmu.edu.ph/ask-lisa/ , and visit our Website at https://jblib.jblfmu.edu.ph for additional learning opportunities and information.
LIBRARY OUTREACH PROGRAM
Over the years, the Faculty-Library Committee has organized an Outreach Program by donating books, hosting literacy programs, and organizing other activities for children at our community’s adopted school. The Department hand over the donated books, charts, and school supplies to Balabag Elementary School on August 12, 2021, in the presence of the School Principal, Mr. Ronald C. Valdevieso, and Ms. Roselyn D. Pabalate, Library Coordinator, as well as Mrs. Joecelyn B. Panaguiton, Librarian of the Library Hub of Division of La Carlota City.
We are so grateful to our faculty, staff, and students for their unwavering support in this endeavor.
Virtual Library Orientation S.Y. 2021-2022
One of the library services provided to new students at the start of the academic year is library orientation. Due to new normal setting, the traditional way of conducting the library orientation was transformed into online library orientation. This is a new service that the library has developed in order to introduce library services and resources to students and faculty members, with a focus on the library’s accessibility to its clients despite changes in learning styles. The library provided this year’s orientation to students of all year levels via Zoom and MS Teams in collaboration with faculty members. From October 26 to November 4, 2021, students from the Colleges of Business and Education and Maritime Education participated in an online orientation, while Junior and Senior High School students attended an orientation on November 22, 2021.
The Library Department of JBLCF-Bacolod welcomes the PACUCOA Accreditors for Level 2 Accreditation of Bachelor of Science in Customs Administration and Bachelor of Science in Hotel Management in its Virtual Accreditation on October 28-29, 2020.
