NBDB Donates Books and Other Reading Materials to CSU

The National Book Development Board (NBDB) and the SM Foundation donated books to CSU through the initiative of the Public Information, Alumni and External Affairs Office.

Most of these imported books can be used by the College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources (CASNR), College of Engineering and Information Technology (CEIT) as well as that of the College of Arts and Sciences.

NBDB also gave us Reading Literacy Promotion Posters of celebrity endorsers like Prima Ballerina Liza Macuja, Miriam Quiambao, Chris Tiu, Christine Bersola, Sam Conception, Maricel Laxa among others. These posters are on display at the Ochoa library, the College of Science Education and at the CSU Cabadbaran library.

During the Booklatan sa Caraga last July 21-22, 2011, NBDB also handed some more books to Dr. Joanna B. Cuenca.

Moreover, CSU also received books from the US Embassy’s office of Cultural Affairs through the PIAEA Director who handed over to CSU President Dr. Joanna B. Cuenca reference books for English and Literature subjects.  The books can be used as references for English subjects as well as in History, Psychology and Social Sciences.

Recently, NBDB donates more books to CSU. Dr. Joanna B. Cuenca and PIAEA Director hand over more books from NBDB to CSU Librarians Ms. Cora Tercera and Mr. Allyn Dela Cruz. The books were given by NBDB’s office of Special Events Mr. Glenn L. Malimban in their most recent visit to NBDB office last October 13, 2011 after the congress budget hearing.
