The availment of STARBOOKS by the school paves way for an easier access to educational
and scientific references that are essential for the cultivation of students’ knowledge and interests on
certain topics and principles. The training was performed in order to orient the school staff and teachers
on the creation and purpose of STARBOOKS, its features, contents, access (admin-based and user-
based) and local networking through a Wi-Fi router.
The latest version of STARBOOKS include changes and updates on report generation and
submission, uploading of patches, updates on its site, sharing STARBOOKS server to the network.
DOST-STII is quickly moving forward by transforming its library into the first Philippine
Science Digital Library. STARBOOKS is STII’s answer to the clamor of researchers to easier access
to information, especially science and technology information. As part of the implementation of the
STARBOOKS, DOST-STII tapped non-government organizations to support its implementation.
Although the concept of digital libraries is not new, not all countries have completely
transformed their libraries from traditional libraries, filled with endless rows of shelves of books and
other materials, to digital libraries with endless rows of tables of computer units.
The resource speakers for the training were Ms. Mary Beth D. Grecia, SRS II of Iloilo PSTC - DOST
VI (Introduction on STARBOOKS) and Mr. Garry T. Balinon, SRS II of MIS-DOST VI who
introduced STARBOOKS and discussed networking and troubleshooting. (DOST6/JRAGabiota)
