THE DAVAO del Sur State College will soon have a state-of-the-art virtual library.

DSSC president Augie Fuentes said the P10 million project was funded by the office of Senator Juan Edgardo ‘Sonny’ Angara.

“The proposal for the establishment of the DSSC virtual library has been accepted and funded by Senator Sonny Angara. The project is indeed vital not just in the students’ journey but to the teaching and non-teaching personnel of the institution,” Fuentes said.

He said that having a virtual library is in keeping with the academic trend. It is also a requirement for getting Certificate of Program Compliance, Centers of Excellence and Centers of Development standards.

A virtual library would also enhance the quality of teaching as faculty can use up-to-date e-books, e-journals, and other resources, Fuentes said .

For students, the library can be “an ideal venue to blend face-to-face with virtual meetings, allowing the broad population of students who commute or telecommute to join their teams in project discussions,” he added.
