From early collections during the Spanish colonial period to the foundations of modern librarianship during the United States occupation to the current government mandated licensing process, the library profession in the Philippines has responded to and been shaped by the country’s political climate.

Born in Barasoain, Malolos Bulacan, 14 March 1891. A conscientious and devoted scholar, Dr. Bernardo was no less revered as an understanding and helpful friend of every student in quest of knowledge from the books and manuscripts in his care. He was a true man of learning, whom neither adversity nor academic renown could distract from his scholarly devotions. Bulacan State University-College of Information and Communications Technology LIS 101_Introduction to Library and Information Science The merging of modern trends and the rise of Filipino librarians consolidated through the initiative of Trinidad Pardo de Tavera, culminating in the establishment of the Philippine Library Association (PLA) in 1923. PLA was intended to be a forum and a regulatory body, but needed some time to gain recognition and experience.

To solve the problem, the conference of 1952 proposed a plan for the improvement of library services outlined in a five-stage draft: (1) regular meetings; (2) cooperative organization and cataloguing; (3) the compilation of a union catalog and a union list; (4) the publication of a monthly listing of combined acquisitions; and (5) cooperation with other government agencies.

From 1950 to 1970, the Philippines developed library training programs and courses, completed with master's degree studies abroad, and constituted associations, cooperatives, and regulatory bodies. As the number of universities offering library sciences courses grew, little by little professional librarians replaced non professional staff in postwar Philippine libraries.

Library automation is not really new (it has been available since the 1970s), but only a few libraries could afford expensive computer systems and hardware. Bulacan State University-College of Information and Communications Technology LIS 101_Introduction to Library and Information Science The country is still far from offering highly technical services as a whole, but the phenomenon of library automation is spreading fast and the demand for library automation systems increasing.
