The organization aims to connect the gap between its constituents – LIS associations and student organizations, through a collaboration of mutual interests towards the advancement and growth of the profession. The prior successes of the event have instilled more confidence to the organization to expand its possibilities through reaching out to more students across the country.
Moreover, the field of Library and Information Science has undergone extensive and significant transformations as the age of technology evolved and other fields progressed. The LIS professionals have continuously been active sponsors of the growth of the field through their fundamental principles and core competencies. And so this year, the organization’s integral role in the advancement of the LIS profession shall take place and rise above institutional margins as it commences from the walls of the academe to what lies on the succeeding generations of students and LIS professionals.
The organization shall connect the gaps from the present trends of the profession in the local academic setting to its promising future in the international setting.
And so continuing its mission of spearheading the promotion and development of Library and Information Science (LIS), and reaching out to more students, the University of the Philippines Future Library and Information Professionals of the Philippines (UP FLIPP) in partnership with City College of Angeles invites you to attend its 11th LibSpeak event entitled “LibSpeak 2017: Connecting the Gap” on February 27, 2017, Monday at the City College of Angeles, Arayat Blvd., Angeles City, Pampanga.
