College Library Intensive Orientation

The College Library successfully conducted the Freshmen College Intensive Orientation for first-year students this September 2025. The activity aimed to familiarize students with the library’s resources, services, and facilities, as well as to promote information literacy and responsible library use.

The orientation sessions were scheduled as follows: September 12, 2025 for the School of Architecture, Computing, and Engineering (SACE), September 19, 2025 for the School of Accountancy, Business, and Hospitality (SABH), and September 26, 2025 at 10:30 AM for the School of Health and Allied Sciences (SHAS) and the School of Education, Criminology, Arts, and Psychology (SECAP).

Each session was led by the Virtual Librarians, who guided the students through an overview of library policies, online resources, and research tools such as Grammarly and Turnitin. The program was conducted under the supervision of the College Library Head and the Director of Libraries, ensuring that the orientations aligned with the university’s goal of promoting academic excellence through effective library utilization.

The orientations concluded successfully, with students expressing appreciation for the informative and interactive sessions that prepared them to maximize the use of library resources throughout their academic journey.

Readers in Action: The Relay Edition

One of last month’s highlights was the Reading Relay activity for Junior High School students of the University of Saint Louis Tuguegarao JHS library held on September 29 2025. The activity aimed to hone students’ reading and active listening skills, with prizes prepared as rewards for their excellence.

The said activity was facilitated by the BLIS Interns from Cagayan State University–Carig Campus, under the guidance of Mr. Onofre C. Unciano Jr. and Mrs. Gladys Molina.

Participants from different year levels were scouted to join the activity. The mechanics were presented before the relay began. Winners were Von Tarampi and Nathaniel James Aguirre of Grade 7–Colossians, and Lars Ballesta of Grade 8–St. Claire, who excelled despite the time constraints. They received prizes, with certificates of recognition to follow.

In conclusion, the library ensures that activities like these are not only for leisure but also for student engagement—helping them learn, explore, and sharpen their reading skills.
