A RESEARCH of the Aklatang Emilio Aguinaldo-Information Resource Center of De La Salle University-Dasmariñas was named the third best research by the Philippine Association of Academic Research Librarian.

The study titled “The Engaged Mobile Information Librarian Experience: Challenges and Opportunities for DLSU-D Library” was authored by Mae Lyn Baron, Ethel Torres, Dr. Sonia Gementiza and Mary Ann Salvador.

“EMIL is a live chat online platform and one of the University Library’s communication channels embedded in its website, to provide assistance to its clients composed of students and faculty,” DLSU-D said.

“It was introduced in the middle of the School Year 2019-2020 and was featured in one of the Strategic Communications Office’s ‘DLSU-D Cares’ campaigns,” it added.
