The Association of Special Libraries of the Philippines (ASLP) in partnership with the National Commission for Culture and the Arts-National Committee on Library and Information Services (NCCA-NCLIS) will conduct a PRC-accredited CPD program with a theme “Catalyzing Multicultural Librarianship : Opportunities, Challenges and Strategies in the 21st Century” at Hotel Roma, Tuguegarao City, Cagayan from February 28 to March 2, 2018.
The library has become a hub for people from various cultural backgrounds to converge. Thus, this seminar-workshop aims to present ideas for information professionals from academic, school, special and public libraries in ensuring a multicultural library that fosters appreciation, respect and understanding of cultural differences. It specifically aims to present the best practices and challenges of some institutions in dealing with various cultural groups, exemplify the opportunities for librarians to emulate these best practices and act as agents in these challenges, and offer strategies to embark multiculturalism in their respective libraries.
Librarians, library administrators, support staff, teachers and students of Library & Information Science, consultants and other information professionals are invited to attend the seminar-workshop. Conference registration fee includes kit, accommodation, meals, and certificate of participation with CPD points.
