day. The resource person was Ms. Violeta Valladolid of Institutional Testing and Evaluation Office (DLSU). She gave the basics of statistics and a hands-on training on the use of Statistica, a comprehensive suite for data mining and data analysis. Everyone eagerly participated in this training because of the potential use of Statistica. Finally, former DLSU personnel, Ms. Marian Ramos of the University of the Philippines-Diliman School of Library and Information Studies, gave a lecture that involved submission of library and information studies (LIS) research proposals to local and international journals. Ms. Ramos shared her knowledge and experience in submitting papers to local and international journals. Publishing

shared his great talent and expertise in exploring possible themes and topics that a librarian may write about or conduct research on. The objectives of the session were to grasp the essence of writing an academic research paper, and to learn, understand and apply the principles of research writing.Everybody racked their brains during Dr. Cruz’s session because the participants were made to share the things they do in the library; and at the same time translated such tasks that it became a research material. On his part, Dr. Cruz enthusiastically shared his bright ideas on the topic being discussed that somehow led to a possible development of a research subject. Participants kept their focus on all the details that Dr. Cruz enunciated, aware of its value for their research agenda

The second session gave the participants a glimpse of the numerous topics that each librarian submitted to DLSU. The best person to discuss this, is of course the Director of the University Library Ms. Ana Maria Fresnido. She gave a 5-year review of the papers produced by the librarians at DLSU, as well as the current status of research papers being written. Subject areas were presented so that everybody would be aware of topics or subject areas delved into. Ms. Fresnido also provided the types of research output that a researcher may submit, other than the manuals of procedures types. The rationale behind research endeavors of the University was also presented. The third session happened on the second

and open access publications. She ended her presentation with some tips on how to survive the peer-review process – a

way towards being a full blown scholar.

Filipinos are fond of navigating and exploring on what’s new around the social media platform. According to a report published by Nick Burcher (2010), the Philippines ranked 8th globally, with the highest number of Facebook users as of March 31, 2010. The Philippines have generated 11,561,740 Facebook accounts (and counting) with 1027% increase for the past 12 months. No doubt Facebook is the most popular social networking site around the world with USA, UK, Indonesia, Turkey and France at the top 5. But, if we rank the users according to per head of population, the Philippines ranked 72nd. It is based on the total number of population versus the actual number of Facebook users (Burcher, 2008).

These reports showed that Filipinos are eager to learn new activities, specifically playing around online tools that will basically refresh our daily routine from our busy schedules. Health science librarians, as part of the Filipino workforce, generally are advocates of new knowledge being propagated within the social structure.

This study provides an insight on how health sciences librarians behave towards the influence set by the modern computer age in new ways of communicating and informing patrons; and organizing and repackaging their precious physical collection and virtual objects into a more diverse method of adapting to change and leaving behind computer anxiety most specially with the entry of “Library 2.0.”

Library 2.0 adapted the concept of Web 2.0. Terry Flew (2008) described what he believed to characterize the difference between Web 1.0 and Web 2.0 as a “move from personal websites to blogs and blog site aggregation, from publishing to participation, from web content as the outcome of large up-front investment to an ongoing and interactive process, and from content management systems to links based on tagging (folksonomy).”

In libraries, it is eminent that the shift also reflects the way they promote their services and programs. Library 2.0 borrowed the concept from Web 2.0 and follows the same philosophies (Wikipedia, 2009). Library 2.0 is the application of interactive, collaborative, and multi-media web-based technologies to library services and collections (Kwanya, 2009). The focus is on user’s change and participation in the creation of content and community. Similarly, the medical and health sciences adopted the term Medicine 2.0 to keep abreast with the latest use of technology in their field.

The abrupt condition of knowing which way to go in the process of improving the services of the library puts pressure on mature Filipino health librarians because of the changing library lifestyle. It should always be considered that all kinds of profession require a standardized approach in leveling the competencies and filling-in the gaps among colleagues to continuously collect, share and promote the knowledge to the clients and stakeholders even in the

midst of sudden shift.

The health and medical librarians are always there to support the patron’s information needs. They have transformed their repositories and programs by providing neo-conventional services such as the emergence of Web 2.0 technologies. Web 2.0 technologies as translated to medical and health librarianship will have a big effect on how special libraries promote their physical services into an online environment. In turn, Library 2.0 can fully support Medicine 2.0 practice. A collaborative effort among medical librarians and medical professionals should be present to continuously provide the

latest trends in online medical and health information.

The objectives of this study are to:

determine the acquired knowledge, 1. perceptions and attitudes of medical and health librarians in the Philippines on the impact of Library 2.0.know the level of awareness and 2. reveal any gaps among medical and health librarians in the use, creation and adaptation of Library 2.0 tools especially in informing, educating and empowering their users.recognize which technology is more 3. common to Health Science Librarians, Library 1.0 or Library 2.0, in the time of abrupt technological changes. evaluate if the librarians have learned 4. from the previous seminars conducted by MAHLAP (or from other library organizations) on the topic of emerging technologies and Web 2.0 through demonstration of applied skills as referred by the indicators set by technical competencies for health librarians. create a draft national competency 5. requirement for medical and health librarians in the Philippines needed for a coordinated staff development program.

This study have surveyed 43 health and medical librarians in the National Capital Region, Region 3 (Central Luzon) and Region 4-A (CALABARZON). Two kinds of questionnaires were sent out. The first is for the officers of the Medical and Health Librarians Association of the Philippines and second is for the medical and health librarians. This survey determined if they allow the researcher to use MAHLAP as its collaborator for the study.

Below is a list of Social Media Literacy competencies:

Understanding and Articulating Social 1. Media Sites and Their Roles

Indicator: Librarians should be familiar with a diversity of social media sites including those most relevant to their patrons. Librarians also need to be able to articulate

the importance of online social media sites and their applications for libraries to peers, administrators, and patrons.

Creating Content2.

Indicator: The social media literate librarian is capable of creating, contributing, and revising content in various formats including images, text, audio, video, links, and more within and beyond the presence of their library in a variety of social media sites with various tools. This extends to creating the library presence including pages, groups, profiles, and applications using new, simple, and revised programming methods like PHP, MySQL, AJAX, CSS, J2EE, widgets, gadgets, mashups, and APIs.

Evaluating Information3.

Librarians also need to be able to assist patrons in gaining and applying these skills to evaluate information they encounter in various online social networks.

Applying Information Ethically and 4. Legally

Indicator: The social media literate librarian applies information in social media sites ethically and legally. They respect copyright and intellectual property of information encountered and applied in social media sites, and conscious of the unique cultural norms. This includes applying information found in social networking sites to other media and applying information to projects within social networking sites.

Searching and Navigating5.

Indicator: The social media literate librarian knows how to effectively search and browse various online social media for known and unknown contacts, and for information and resources in a variety of formats. This includes understanding the search tools available within the sites, knowledge of using outside search engines to search the sites, and an understanding of what information and fields are searchable. Skills for navigating and browsing within the sites and between a variety of individual networks and outside websites is also important.

Interacting6.

Indicator: The social media literate librarian is familiar with the diverse methods of communicating with social networking sites and is aware of and able to apply the unique cultural norms and expectations of each communication method. Also important are the skills for interacting over the various mobile communication channels popular with some social media sites. Librarians should possess the skills for interacting with patrons in these sites via smart phone applications, mobile webpages, email, software and third party clients, and text message.

Teaching7.

Indicator: The social media literate librarian is capable of teaching these skills to library patrons and peers. This includes guiding and training patrons through targeted aspects of social media sites that arise in their use as resources and tools, teaching about the use of social media sites for scholarly purposes, and teaching faculty and instructors about the role of social media sites and considerations for issues affecting their students’ work.

Providing Services8.

Indicator: The social media literate librarian utilizes a variety of online social media sites to provide quality library services. They evaluate social media sites and choose which are most appropriate to establish a library presence in. They are capable of building and managing the library’s presence in the form of profiles or applications, developing work flows for services, marketing services, weeding spam, understanding and working with privacy levels, assessing the library’s presence and services, leveraging tagging and choosing as favorite, understanding and engaging vendor and other third party applications, and being aware of relevant security topics. It is important that librarians are familiar with the steps and etiquette for initiating and responding to friend requests in building networks.

Flexibility9.

Indicator: Flexibility is the defining skill for librarians engaging people and information

through social networking sites. Librarians must be able to apply the above skills to unique and novel social networking sites as they emerge and evolve. Familiarity with each of the above skills in multiple social networking sites will help librarians be flexible in applying these skills to future sites and services.The matrix was divided into four levels: the novice, the experienced, the highly experienced and the expert. This was adapted from Gina San Buenaventura’s thesis on Developing a Competency Assessment Program for Special Librarians. The workshop provided learning activities for the three groups and they were given ample time to discuss the competencies listed in the matrix. Each group was assigned specific Library 2.0 tools that they have to focus on.

Evaluation questions were also required to be answered by each group:

Do the prescribed outcomes in each 1. level reasonable enough to encapsulate each competency objectively? If not, what are your recommendations to those you think should be present/ added/ deleted in each competency and its corresponding levels?Do you think these are the only 2. competencies that health/ medical librarians should possess/embody in a so-called Library 2.0 environment?Do you think the competencies listed 3. are worthy to be published as a national guideline/ model for professional health/medical librarians in the country?What do you think will be the effect 4. to the profession if we implement this kind of competency? Cite both negative and positive effects.

The second survey is for MAHLAP members listed in the 2009 online directory. Their questionnaire is divided into seven parts: (1) personal profile, (2) status of employment, (3) related Library 2.0 seminars attended, (4) communication with users, (5) use of Library 2.0 tools, (6) application of Web 2.0 and (7) testing their competencies. A face-to-face interaction with the librarians is necessary to see whether they can

comprehend well with the researcher. This is required to establish a clear

understanding of the purpose and objectives of the study being conducted. An on-site online validation is also necessary to check whether they are really adept with the Library 2.0 tool they are talking about if they will be required to provide an example for every answer.

Understanding and Articulating Library 2.0 tools and Their Roles

46.9% of the respondents understand what Library 2.0 tools are. They can describe and explain the purpose of each tool and they can relay its value. As a requirement for the research, they should be able to define at least three Library 2.0 tools. Keywords are needed to test their competency. If they are able to identify and describe at least three of these tools, then they pass level 1. At least 40.6% are able to reach the experienced level wherein they are capable of enumerating existing social tools in the web based on the items they have defined on level 1 (the novice level). The matrix does not have a “below novice” level but it was identified that there are still librarians who are not aware of such Library 2.0 tool. On the contrary, one librarian reached the expert level. S/he is able to provide a remarkable definition and understanding of more than six tools and is proficient in an advanced level of handling and maintaining these tools.

Creating Content

Most of these librarians attended workshops and seminars related to Library 2.0. 65.6% are experienced on creating various Library 2.0 tools. 12.5% are highly experienced. That means that they have the skills and knowledge about the technical aspects of the back-end systems by becoming the administrator or manager of any of those tools for their library service. If we use the data regarding their knowledge on the use of tools, we can say that the 65.6% experienced people only focus on social networking sites, instant messengers, blogs and social media sharing. To illustrate, most of them are just viewers of YouTube, not creators of content. Therefore, they cannot justify the need not to block the website because they do not produce academic outputs that

they can upload on the website that may deem useful for academic learning of the institution. If they can justify that they view or download academic videos uploaded to the popular website, YouTube, then maybe the administrator will reconsider and allow them to use YouTube. Other factors for blocked website include: low bandwidth, internet traffic, and inappropriate use of website (for entertainment purposes of viewing/watching such as MTVs on YouTube and the like). Alternative medical video sites are also available for librarians like the Doctor’s Channel, MEDTing, VideoMD and Anatomy TV.

Evaluating Information

More than half (56.3%) of the librarians are still on the novice level. These librarians are only aware of the basic guidelines in evaluating online content. Only 12.5% follow an evaluation guideline particular for web content that is germane for blogs, wikis and other Library 2.0 tools. It is alarming that a quarter of the respondents do not follow any evaluation guideline for online content. Their health information literacy skills need updating.

Applying Information Ethically and Legally

This competency shows that more librarians respect the practice of academic honesty & intellectual property rights in the Philippines. They conform to the Intellectual Property Code of the Philippines (RA 8293) and is aware of the Code of Ethics for Filipino librarians designed by the Professional Regulations Commission (PRC) signed last September 13, 2006. 28.1% experienced librarians use and apply citation of any information gathered online in any social networking site to avoid plagiarism or other forms of intellectual misconduct. They are likewise familiar with APA, AMA, MLA and other existing standard citation formats for recording information used online. 9.3% are considered experts because they consistently remind and monitor colleagues and clients about the importance of applying ethical and legal practices of getting health information in social networking sites by creating and

using various media to promote and adhere to the highest principles of intellectual property and copyright.

Searching and Navigating

Less than half of the librarians (40.6%) demonstrate knowledge and skills in searching and navigating Web 2.0 sites: wiki, videoshare, social network, search engine or blog. Only a few can understand the search tools available within the sites, knowledge of using outside search engines to search the sites, and an understanding of what information and fields are searchable.

Interacting

18 (56.3%) are highly experienced in interacting with the users. This shows that, they do not only create blog or IM accounts but they are also aware of the social norms in communicating online and how to behave and respond to users, e.g. use of language that is familiar and understandable to all the subscribed members of the community. Experts in the field also use available reading materials talking about good netizens. This includes “The Ultimate Social Media Etiquette Handbook” by Tamar Weinberg.

Teaching

This competency shows that even if they have acquired knowledge and have seen the benefits of using and having Library 2.0 tools, they still do not promote the importance of social media to clients by using these tools professionally and applying them in the workplace to attract patrons about the library services. More than half (56.3%) are below novice.

Providing Services

A lot of librarians failed this competency level. A majority (78.1%) does not provide any Library 2.0 service to their patrons. As suggested by the indicators of this competency, the social web literate librarian should be able to utilize a variety of online social networking sites to provide quality library services. They should be able to evaluate social network sites and choose which are most appropriate to establish

a library presence in. They should be capable of building and managing the library’s presence in the form of profiles or applications, developing work flows for services, marketing services, weeding spam, understanding and working with privacy levels, assessing the library’s presence and services, leveraging tagging and choosing as favorite, understanding and engaging vendor and other third party applications, and being aware of relevant security topics. It is important that librarians are familiar with the steps and etiquette for initiating and responding to friend requests in building networks.

Flexibility

The researcher asked the librarians if they have understood the purpose of this research. They were asked if they could remember some competencies that a health librarian should have in a Library 2.0 environment. Prior to the survey and interview, the researcher explained the process of the library visit and it was clear in the questionnaire about the purpose of the survey and interview. It revealed that 81.3% novice librarians can remember and are able to can explain what competencies they need in this Web 2.0 age. It was suggested that a flexible social web literate librarian must be able to apply the above skills to unique and novel social media sites as they emerge and evolve. Familiarity with each of the above skills in multiple social media sites will help librarians be flexible in applying these skills to future sites and services.

The results made the researcher to conclude that the utilization of social media in the Philippines is relatively high particularly with social networking sites and Instant Messengers. Generally, the surveyed librarians use their own social media space to send updates about themselves and not about the work they are doing. At some point, they unconsciously post status messages about the activities they have accomplished related to their work but not about the “event” itself wherein the library or librarian was involved. There is a need for the librarians to rethink about what these tools are all about and how it can fully help them in their daily task. They can be abusive with the personal use of these social media sites yet they can

also exhaust the use of these social media by all means and justify their importance to satisfy not only their “gaming” and “liking” fashion in the online environment but as well perform their professional responsibilities and be proactive while they are online. It is understood that they value the importance of these tools so that they can communicate with their co-workers and with their respective clients but they have a hard time doing it in real existence. Their systems administrators block the popular websites they are visiting yet they find a way to access them by using other online tools such as online proxy servers. They just need to find a way to market their collection, services and facilities.

As suggested by Murray and Moulaison, librarians who are not yet developed in the competencies listed above should be trained very extensively.

“Training for librarians for these critical skills can be based on learning outcomes derived from the above competencies. Teaching methods should emphasize active learning because proficiency with social media sites is most easily gained through active and personal engagement.”

These competencies are designed to enhance the capacity of the librarians in providing quality services within and with the assistance of online social media sites. It will serve as a basis for future training and coordinated staff development program.

Finally, it is the librarians’ role to disseminate and inform users about what Web 2.0 tools are easily available for them. Some libraries do not have their own library websites, and they can now use blogging sites to interact and communicate with patrons. By doing so, they become information, digital and social media literate all at the same time. Lack of these competencies does not say that they are not good librarians. They just have to learn how to negotiate with the management and practice what they have learned from the studies and workshops they have attended. They should also have the initiative to find ways to deal with restrictions and to welcome change and innovation.

course, the story. Questions like: who was your favorite character in the story?, how did you start writing about it, and, why it was only now that you wrote a book?, were among the questions asked from the author. Ms. Militante gamely answered all the questions, and even elaborated with telling the audience about some of her personal experiences as a student of the University. She ended the talk with autograph-

This Book Talk Series episode was conceptualized by Dr. Genevieve Asenjo, Chair of the Literature Department, Ms. Karen Lucero, representative of NBDB, Mr. Peter Paul Pichler, president of the DLSU Literature Circle, and Ms. Willian Frias, DLSU Library representative.

DLSU Library continues its extension services of lending its librarians to lead various library and information organizations. For the fiscal year 2012, six (6) DLSU librarians were elected into office into different organizations.

His oath-taking, together with the other officers of ASLP, was attended by MS. Christine Abrigo, Ms. Janice Peňaflor, Ms. Jocelyn Ladlad, and Ms. Willian Frias, who delivered the welcome remarks for

the ceremony. Being the organization’s vice president, Joseph also chairs the Conference Committee of the organization. He plans to hold two seminars for this year. One of these will be held on April 18-20, 2012 at Puerto Prinsesa, Palawan.

Philippine Normal University Library and Information Science Alumni Association (PNULISAA) gave its full confidence to DLSU librarians as it elected into office, four of our very own Librarians, namely: Ms. Ana Fresnido (Library Director), President; Ms. Janice Peňaflor (Collection development and Associate

ASRC Librarian), Vice President; Ms. Cynthia Cordova (AGH Librarian), Secretary; and, Ms. Elizabeth Padilla (Periodicals librarian and Readers Services Coordinator), Treasurer.

Thank You and Good Luck, Linda!

DLSU Library’s Rosalinda Del Rosario bid goodbye to the Library workforce on her nth birthday and retirement from service thanksgiving party on January 25, 2012. A member of the Co-Academic Personnel, Linda, as she is fondly called, served as a clerk at the Special Collections on her departure. She has been with DLSU for 39 years. She first signed her employment contract, 39 years before, at the Office of the then President Brother Hyacinth Gabriel Connon FSC. She then continued to work on at the Materials Development and Reproduction Office (MRDO) as Office Supervisor. Prior to her assignment at the Special Collections, she was a staff of the Public Relations Office under the then Vice President for Development and Alumni Affairs Brother J. Benedict FSC.

Linda, is one of a kind – industrious, kind, patient, humble and quiet.

Unlike many, Linda would consistently come to work very early – (by the way, she’s a consistent early bird awardee), – and reversely leaves late or a little later. A bonus

t o m o s t coworkers d u r i n g these early arrivals was f o o d f o r breakfas t , enough for

the lucky ones who were around. It seemed that these lucky ones were also always around. The Archives staff would remember Linda with this special ability of cutting the Section’s charge and photocopying slips perfect to the tee! – perhaps even put the machine cutter to shame. That would certainly be missed!

To quote a message from one among closest friends:

“Si Ate Linda ay nakasama at nakilala ko sa loob ng 18 taon. Wala akong alam na masasabi sa kanya na hindi maganda dahil napakabuti niyang kasama bilang katrabaho at kaibigan. Pag nangailangan ka, basta’t meron siya, madali siyang lapitan at mapagbigay. Isa pang hinahangaan ko sa kanya ang pagiging matapang niya sa mga pagsubok. Alam nating lahat na may nagkasakit siya. Pero hindi siya nawalan ng pag-asa, matatag niyang hinarap ang mga pagsubok. Noong magkasakit siya, inilihim niya sa pamilya niya ang kanyang karamdaman, dahil ayaw niyang maapektuhan sila. Napakadisiplinado din niya. Kaya niyang kontrolin ang sarili niya sa di pagkain ng mga bawal kahit gusting-gusto na niyang kainin”.

“Simple lang siya- tahimik, relihiyosa , masipag at matiyaga sa mga maliliit na bagay. Malawak rin ang kanyang pang-unawa, at nakahanda siyang makinig kung may idaraing kang problema sa kanya.

Napakaswerte niya palagi, lalo na sa mga raffle, talagang hindi siya pumapalya, palagi siyang winner.Marami rin siyang naitulong sa akin. Katulad ng pagbibigay ng payo at marami pang iba … na secret na lang yung iba.”

Magkaroon kasana ng mahaba pang buhay, Ate Linda, at palagi kang pagpalain ng Panginoong Maykapal. - Evelyn Esparcia at DLSU Archives

And so, it is time to thank Linda – we thank you for having a coworker who does her tasks thoroughly and well, in the most unassuming way. You had also made our working days here at DLSU, cheerful and filled with food! Good luck to you, too.

Make way and come to visit us often too – for yours is farewell, -- not goodbye! Take care friend. Stay healthy, happy and rich. Preferably all at the same time.
