The end of each year brings forth a fresh beginning. Equally, a hopeful leader arises anew to ensure the progression of this association.
The PNULISAA, Inc. organized in 2000, carried in its mission the honing of leadership in support of the member-librarians and libraries, and the promotion of learning including continuing education. Our organization has endowed us with the nurturing influence which we all need to foster each other as we have all developed from one common alma mater, the Philippine Normal University.
In God’s grace, we have achieved ten fruitful years of commitment to share and serve fortified with love and care. The excellent leadership has begotten the team spirit among the members. Though still deficient in number, a decade of existence may very well equate to a decade of accomplishment.
Our mentors and predecessors have imparted expertise, have given confidence and have extended support that leads us to the attainment of our aspirations. MARAMI SALAMAT PO!
May we continue to be in touch with each other, to support each other, to make a real difference to make our vision known to the world.
MABUHAY ANG MGA LAYBRARYAN!
Congratulations, PNULISAA!

2010 President’s Report:
2010 President’s Report:
Thank God for everything!
Magandang- magandang hapon po sa lahat ng nagbigay ng kanilang oras para sa araw na ito.; to all our guests and our very own past presidents of the PNULISAA,Inc. Ms. Elnora Conti, Peachy Limpin, Connie Estigoy, Evelyn Nabus, Medie De Castro, Estela Montejo, Jo Ladlad , mentors , Dr. Maria Orendain, Dr. Linda Tayona, Prof. Miguel Cobaria, Prof. Ruben Marasigan, friends and colleagues.
Thank you for coming, for keeping in touch because today is one of the days of success and fruits of working together.
When I had my acceptance speech, it was a dimmed moment due to an electrical problem facility of the university. And I remembered Ms. Jo, beside me holding her cell phone with built-in flashlight, because I have to read my ‘codigo.’
Today is our day of achievement PNULISAA@10: a Decade of Commitment, Leadership and Solidarity, for all of us here, will be looking back from the past and facing our future. Year 2010 for me is a sacrificial year, batch officers need to sacrifice their time for their family to be able to attend the meetings and activities /programs of the association. In giving, sharing and supporting each member. Hence, may I request my batch officers to stand? Ever-generous vice-president Art Morales III; Secretary Lyn Soriano; persevering treasurer ,Noemi Cabantog; Auditor Chona San Pedro; PRO Gabby Balenbin; Board members Jo Dalicano, Marybel Caasi, Philip Daiz, Bea Sandaga and Marifi Navarro; our advisers Ms. Eve Nabus and Prof. Marasigan . These people deserve a round of applause for the untiring effort and support of making our activities possible… And these are the following:
A. Membership: Our members have increased because of the professors’ assistance and support especially Prof. Cobaria and renewal of membership was being enforced and strengthened. We should maximize the Batch Leaders next year so that we could easily get in touch with alumni members.
B. PNULISAA ID: We have issued the 2nd batch of IDs, please update by paying your renewal fees annually.
C. Scholarship Grant: From one scholar Johanna Tacus, we were able to have two more named Candy Husmilo and Maricel Paya; and today I am asking favor of love to the past presidents to pledge for donor on scholarship program and that includes me now. While some of us here are donors already. Let’s be positive, it’s the youth who’ll benefit.
D. Publication: The supposedly twice a year newsletter was not made materialized because of time constraint and resources, that is why we have only one issue which highlights our very own Ms. Peachy’s message. We encourage you to send your articles/essays for contribution. Please get in touch with our P.R.O.
In addition with our publicity, thanks to Gabriel L. Balenbin, for his effort in creating Facebook account of Philippine Normal University Library and Information Science Alumni Association (PNULISAA, Inc).
E. Financial Matter: Our association fund is now on track of checking account in the bank, at least by maintaining the required balance we now have the consistent savings of Php 50,000.00 as fund. We were also able to open a separate savings account for scholarship fund. Our 4th timer treasurer, Ms. Noemi Cabantog will report on the details of our finances.
F. Library Tour and Forum: Our 4th Lakbay Laybrari was held at St. Scholastica’s Archives /Museum and De La Salle University Archives with forum on Organizational Setting of an Academic Archives with lecture on “Establishing Archives: Challenges& Opportunities “by alumna Marybel P. Caasi.
G. Annual Career Talk: Both officers and alumnus Gabriel L. Balenbin and Arturo O. Morales III were our speakers during the annual career talk activity for Batch BLIS 2010. Only last Saturday, I’ve met one of the alumni member Madam Leonila Galvez and she suggested that Career talk in Librarianship be given to all public and private 4th year high school aimed to promote our career and PNU as well. Maybe the next board will decide on this.
H. PNU-LIS Department coordination: The association was able to link with the PNU-LIS department in the National seminar-workshop entitled “Towards a Dynamic Partnership Program between Teaching and Information Professionals: Technology Integration across Curriculum” last May 20-22, 2010.
I. Seminar-workshop: A 3-day seminar-workshop was held on September 8-10, 2010 at Local Government Academy(LGA) Training Center, UP Los Banos with the topic “Building the Culture of Research between the Librarians and the Administrators,” which was granted with 15 CPE credit units . Speakers were Directors Lourdes David, Ana Maria Fresnido, Prof. Lucila R. Fetalvero, and Dr. Atty. Noel Ramiscal.
Finally, today’s highlight of 2010 activity, the 1st Annual Convention and 10th General Assembly with the theme PNULISAA@10: A Decade of Commitment, Leadership and Solidarity. Let us always work hand in hand for the best of our association, PNULISAA, Inc.

PEACHY'S MESSAGE 2009
Abangan ang susunod na kabanata
Parang kailan lang, ang pangarap na alumni’y kay hirap abutin
Dahil sa inyo, napunta ito sa ating nais marating…
Tatanda at lilipas din kami
Ngunit mayrong samahang iiwanan
Sa inyong alaala..
Inggit at kulit. Ito siguro ang dahilan kung bakit nabuo rin sa wakas ang PNU-LISAA. Matagal ding panahon ang dumaan para mabuo ang alumni association na ito. Naalala ko minsan yung kwentuhan namin ni Sir Marasigan tungkol nga sa pag-buo ng isang alumni association dahil nakaka-inngit ang UP, UST, PUP dahil very active ang alumni nila nung mga panahon na nagkaron ng CPE accreditation. Sa kakukulit marahil ng mga ibang alumni na nakakikita nila saan man sila magpunta, finally, nagpatawag na ang department ng isang malaking organizational meeting.
Tanda ko pa yung araw na nabuo itong alumni association. Me sakit pa nga yung anak kong bunso noon, na hindi na bunso ngayon, pero kelangan ko syang iwan kasi isa ako sa emcee nung hapon na yon.
Kung tao itong association natin, malaki na sya, independent na at marunong nang mag-isip para sa sarili niya pero kelangan pa rin ng alalay.
As part of the organizing committee then and as a past president of the Association, I am very proud to have been part of this group. This organization stands apart from the others because of what binds us and the camaraderie that is just contagious. There never was a boring meeting and I hope it still holds true to this day. Saying that I miss the group is an understatement. Being away from you has left a void.
So what’s next for PNU-LISSA as we work towards a decade of serving our members? Here’s what I wish for: that by the end of this message, someone in the audience will put his/her hands up and volunteer to update our website because we owe it to our members/subscribers to our site to be informed of updates and happenings from the group. Truth to tell, alumni are still subscribing to our site even if the last post was a year old.
Hindi naman mahirap ang hinihingi ko diba? Kung nahihiya kayong magtaas ng kamay, lumapit na lang kayo sa isa sa mga officers at bulungan nyo na lang.
Isa pang pangarap ko e manalo sa lotto para maka-uwi ako sa 2010 para makasama kayong mag-celebrate ng 10 years ng grupo.
At this point in time, I think it’s fair to congratulate all of us who are part of the Association for a job well done. It’s heartwarming to see that our efforts have paid off and we should all be looking forward to the next decade.
I hope that the next email I get from the Association would have the subject line: I Volunteer! But of course I wouldn’t mind any other emails as long as it doesn’t have the subject line: Solicitation letter. Joke lang.
Miss you all and advance Merry Christmas.

Acceptance Speech
Mrs. Marites K. Chavez (2010 President)
PNULISAA, Inc
December 5, 2009 General Assembly
“Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; and working together is success.”
To all our distinguished guests, mentors, colleagues, friends and loved ones. Good afternoon!
I have never thought nor dreamed that I would be the next president of a caring group Philippine Normal University –Library and Information Science Alumni Assn. (PNULISAA, Inc)--- It seems that I don’t have a choice than to accept this responsibility.. Neither do I have to leave because being a member in this group is really something!—the sincerity, the friendship and camaraderie of the group, and the professionalism in mind and in heart makes you feel a family member. I have come to realized that the branded “a caring group” is a reality. Thank you to our ex-officio and excellent speaker, Mr. Roderick B. Ramos for branding our association.
For our decade’s theme “love and commitment to share and to serve” will always be in our heart because we all know that an alumni of PNU will always be a loving and a caring individual just like our ex-officios namely Elnora Conti, Placida Socorro Limpin, Medina de Castro, Consuelo Estigoy, Medel Vincent Bautista, Estela Montejo, Roderick Ramos and of course Jocelyn Ladlad who have worked hard for the success of our association. All of them have in common, a big heart to share and to serve. (Hope to have a bigger one.) Without these people, our association won’t be in realization and of service. ”Kudos” to all of you!
To our dear mentors and founders namely Mr. Ruben Marasigan, Mr.Miguel Cobaria, Dr.Linda Tayona, Dr. Maria Orendain, thank you for your profound support.
To my batchmates’87… You are my treasures, I may not have the best career in my life, but I am happy having you gems grow in my heart.
To my family, my one and only love, who is very supportive and patient in all my activities in life,
And to my batch officers, let’s work hand in hand and if others were able to made it,” kaya rin natin ito!” Last but not the least to Almighty God, for the strength and guidance .
We will be celebrating our decade’s commitment and service next year, part of the plans would be the decade book consisting of directory of membership, its activities, accomplishments and achievements; (please update your membership, keep in touch by emails, through our site -PNULISAA yahoogroups); for membership activation-provision of ID is going on starting 2010 and to continuously update the members, we will select a Batch Leaders to follow up ; prescribed forum and seminar-workshops for professional development with CPE points will continue ; teamwork with the PNU-LIS Department aimed to have a better PNU enrolment and career in librarianship; continue the solicitations, raffles for scholarship grants; we will go on with the outreach program and may I request and encourage each and everyone of you to support our association though we are small, we believe that we always care.
We salute to all of you who are here, see you all next year for our decade celebration and wishing for the best cooperation and camaraderie among our members. God bless us all and Merry Christmas…

2007-2008 Accomplishment Report
by Roderick B. Ramos
St. Michael's College-Laguna
PNU-LISAA, Inc. is a very young association. It is only an eight-year old group of PNU LIS alumni members.
It also tries to be one caring alumni group to help provide both alumni and non-alumni an exceptional line up of professional activities which can deliver authentic learning to all – library & office personnel, faculty and LIS students, and alumni members as well.
Good Afternoon.
This year has to end and please agree with me that PNU-LISAA, Inc. is ending 2008 with winning streaks as an alumni organization.
In behalf of the PNULISAA Executive Board, I proudly present to you the following accomplishments for the year 2007-2008.
SCHOLARSHIP GRANT
Our first scholar (also last year’s scholar), Ms. Johanna Jayne S. Tacus, won first place with her classmate-team mate Donna Lyn G. Labangon in the recently concluded 17th LIS Wizard competition held last November 24, 2008 at the National Library with opponents from UST as 2nd placer, UP as 3rd placer and other contestants from AUP, BSU, BU, PUP, and UE. This year, the Association submitted an amount of four thousand (P4,000.00) pesos to the Cashier’s Office of the Philippine Normal University intendedly for Tacus through the generosities of the this year’s pillars of the Association’s scholarship namely Cayaban, Celedonia R. (DLSU, CSB), Ladlad, Jocelyn (DLSU); and Nera, Corazon (PRC). Tacus served and did secretarial work and assisted in some occasions of the Association.
Your annual care means a lot to our LIS scholar Ann!
Ann is 3rd year 17 year-old LIS student this year. She said that she’s thankful that she can study and truly grateful for this scholarship. “With your help, I will finish college and in turn, help my family too. I promised myself that I will do my best. ”
PRC BFL Corazon Nera said in her letter:
“I believe in the Association’s noble objectives in realizing my dream to elevate the status and image of the profession by recruiting the best potential librarians imbued with good work values and high ethical standards.”
MEMBERSHIP/ ALUMNI DIRECTORY
There are more than 1,402 documented alumni names in the roster of PNU LS alumni in one blog (http://librarysciencealumniofpnu.blogspot.com) I keep. It is a partial/unofficial list of Library Science graduates of the Philippine Normal University taken from the souvenir "Library Science Golden Jubilee (1957-2008)" of the Department of Library and Information Science of PNU with the theme: THE PNU LS PROGRAM THROUGH THE YEARS under the leadership of Dr. Linda M. Tayona with Dr. Maria A. Orendain, University Librarian.
Last year, Montejo, 2007 president reported a total of 178 alumni in the general membership, active or not, while this year, 2007 Executive Board made only a handful of less than a hundred (17) plus it’s during this year that the Association started to collect 150 pesos for membership fee.
NEWSLETTER
We have two issues of the PNU-LISAA Newsletter. The first one featured "Library Science Golden Jubilee (1957-2008)" of the Department of Library and Information Science of PNU with the theme: THE PNU LS PROGRAM THROUGH THE YEARS.
Elnora Conti was outstanding librarian as the Department’s choice while Mrs. Zarah Grace C. Gagatiga, a pride of her batch in 1994 (Xavier School library chair) served as the celebration’s speaker. The Association financially assisted the Department. (food & speaker’s stipend)
This has reminded us about the career talk at DLSU with 2008 BLIS graduating class of the Philippine Normal University, consisting of 3 male and 9 female students. They attended a roundtable career talk at the DLSU EDRC Multi-Purpose Hall with Library Director Ana Fresnido as lecturer on February 29, 2008.
Fresnido explained and showed her expertise as an alumnus and a practicing librarian through an informative Powerpoint presentation and for this she received a certificate of recognition for her support to PNU-LISAA, Inc. in its mission of assisting Library Science graduating students in shaping their career paths in librarianship by serving as lecturer to the Association’s Career Talk program-activity.
In another occasion, Ladlad and I, your president, attended PLAI meetings at the National Library (March 4 & September 17). The alignment of seminars, workshops, etc. of each association was the main objective of the meeting and Library and Information Services Month. PNU-LISAA, Inc, also, enjoined to give an amount of P2,000.00 as donation to the Philippine Librarians Association or PLAI approved by its Board of Trustees during its second meeting on March 8 as its official response to PLAI’s Resolution No.9, Series of 2007. Other library organizations like ASLP, MAHLAP, PAARL, PATLS, etc, were also represented.
PNU LIS Prof. Ruben P. Marasigan and Librarian IV Evelyn P. Nabus of Pamantasan ng Marikina officially accepted their roles as advisers to 2008 officers of PNU-LISSA, Inc. Nabus is the Association’s 5th president and former officer to public librarians’ association while Marasigan is former chief librarian of the Philippine Normal University. Both of them are first years’ incorporators of PNU-LISAA, Inc way back in 2001.
Both Eileen D. Magadia of DLSU-Lipa and Flordeliz Siochi of NCCA resigned from their positions as board member and secretary, respectively, due to health reasons. Elsa Guarino of Lyceum-Batangas was considered for the former’s position but declined for the same reason and was replaced by Jocelyn Haling of St. Michael’s College-Laguna while Elvira Reyes of St. Paul College-Paranaque replaced Siochi beginning June 1.
Library Tour and Forum
PLAI and TJIC Director Ryza Alenzuela opened their doors to PNU-LISAA, Inc. PNU-LISAA, Inc. acknowledges generosity of both The PLAI Office and TJIC Director Ryza Alenzuela in accommodating its participants to the forum: Handling Donations and Exploring Web Sites last May 13, 2008. Forum participants were given more than 15-page handout of free online resources consolidated by Mrs. Consuelo J. Estigoy (Chief Librarian of Eduardo L. Jose Memorial College) and were encouraged by TJIC staff and Ms. Jocelyn Ladlad of ASRC-DLSU to set up their own American Corner or begin with an American Shelf for countless online information sources through their lectures. TJIC Director Alenzuela iterated her support to both libraries and librarians and also advised the participants to write the Thomas Jefferson Information Center or TJIC to serve them well.
Seminar-workshop
Fifty-eight (58) seminar-workshop attendees crowded the conference room of the Edilberto P. Dagot Hall – library building of the Philippine Normal University for “Library & Information Literacy Power Packages� of the PNU-LISAA, Inc. – a caring alumni group and were wowed by authentic speakers last September 10-11, 2008.
Two (2) LIS students registered – Nelah Miado from the University of the Philippines and Johanna Jayne Tacus from the Philippine Normal University. Tacus is the Association’s scholar and president to one PNU LIS undergraduate society.
40% or 23 LIS alumni of PNU with three LIS faculty namely University Librarian Dr. Maria A. Orendain, Prof. Ruben P. Marasigan and Prof. Miguel M. Cobaria were in attendance.
The planning we made in Dona Jovita Resort in Laguna in May and the teamwork we have had resulted to a more fruitful year for the Association. Kindly congratulate each one of us and extend a hand to everyone as your way of appreciating what we would like to fulfill as a caring alumni group and that is, long life to the Association and good health to every member, paid or not paid!
Thank you very much and enjoy the 8th year of PNU-LISAA, Inc.

Both information centers celebrate their anniversaries and are best examples of information commons in the country.

On the other hand, American ways were demonstrated by TJIC’s Counselor for Public Affairs, Richard W. Nelson, and the eloquent Mr. John Mcguirre. With arms wide open, staff of TJIC elaborated on the power of information sources the Embassy center for reading and research sends and has. Their electronic visions have paid off and many have taken advantage of their Windows of America as essayed by known information specialists namely Brinerdine G. Alejandrino and Jocelyn Ladlad. Their Windows have both quality and advanced online and print databases and are bridges for outreach services in the form of TJIC Alert Service, subject bibliographies, lectures and training, digital video conferencing, etc. Furthermore, Nelson and Mcguirre do not only have beautiful minds for Filipinos but also authentic promises to assist and back us up all. Call up your friends now @ TJIC and help them serve you well beyond 10 years of true colors and calling.
Specifically, forty six (46) library personnel were toured around the ECLC of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas and TJIC of the US Embassy. University of Batangas sent the most number of participants with 7 including one from St. Patrick’s Hospital Medical Center.

On the other hand, American ways were demonstrated by TJIC’s Counselor for Public Affairs, Richard W. Nelson, and the eloquent Mr. John Mcguirre. With arms wide open, staff of TJIC elaborated on the power of information sources the Embassy center for reading and research sends and has. Their electronic visions have paid off and many have taken advantage of their Windows of America as essayed by known information specialists namely Brinerdine G. Alejandrino and Jocelyn Ladlad. Their Windows have both quality and advanced online and print databases and are bridges for outreach services in the form of TJIC Alert Service, subject bibliographies, lectures and training, digital video conferencing, etc. Furthermore, Nelson and Mcguirre do not only have beautiful minds for Filipinos but also authentic promises to assist and back us up all. Call up your friends now @ TJIC and help them serve you well beyond 10 years of true colors and calling.

Prexy Ladlad Leads Project/Outreach Santol in La Union
Employees from local government units and the DepEd of the Santol Municipality attended Project/Outreach Santol of PNU-LISAA, Inc, a caring alumni group, last January 31, 2009 (Saturday) at Santol Pavillion, Santol, La Union (Region I).
It was reported by Principal-II, Diosdado F. Camat, that the seminar on library management was very informative and useful especially in institutions like DepEd with small libraries, also in government units which have plans to put up libraries for the benefit of their constituents.
Also, he said that as beginners, the topics presented were very much helpful in organizing and in making their libraries functional and accessible to pupils. They learned the basic know-how on library management. Though, topics were somewhat complicated because they were new, Mr. Camat said that the group had an excellent set of speakers led by Ms. Jocelyn L. Ladlad (Association’s current president) and recommended and looks forward to a follow-up training in the days to come.
Other resource persons were former presidents namely Mrs. Estela P. Montejo (ADMU) and Mrs. Evelyn P. Nabus (PLM) while ex-officio Mr. Roderick B. Ramos (PNU), auditor Mr. Arturo Morales III (LGA DILG), board members Ms. Ofel Irabon (NSC) and Marifi E. Navarro (ESS) completed the group. EDRC-DLSU, LGA DILG and TJIC provided book donations.
The very visible and accommodating Municipal Mayor Daisy Sayangda Olivar expressed her appreciation and recognized the Association’s efforts in partnering with the Municipality in the conduct of Library Management Training held on January 31, 2009 at Santol Pavillion, Santol, La Union.
If there’s anyone interested to donate books or have cash donations for the Santol Municipality or other projects of PNU-LISAA, Inc., please discuss this with the 2009 Executive Board or e-mail: ladladj@dlsu. edu.ph
