  24. Bookmobile Library Services’ Evaluation STUDENTS’ SUGGESTIONS

  25. Suggestions for improvement (verbatim): • 1. What did you like in the Mobile library? • The Bookmobile is very ideal and we were motivated to read because the books are new and interesting • Good idea because we don’t have that collection in the library • We don’t have a library • Our library have textbooks not that kind of collection • the story books • The picture books collection

  26. Suggestions for improvement (verbatim): • 2. What did you dislike in the Mobile library? • The duration of one month is very short for the students to develop that reading habits • Mastery in the skill of reading was short since we didn’t have enough time to keep/borrow the books with us • Sometimes the teachers don’t bring us to that room where the bookmobile is kept • We were not given enough time to read • We can’t bring it home

  27. Suggestions for improvement (verbatim): • 3. What are your suggestions to improve the Mobile library? • more time given by the teacher to read those books • more time to spend • more books for kids • hope we can borrow the books at home • more time to read

  28. Bookmobile Library Services’ Evaluation DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION

  29. Discussion and Conclusion: • Most of the students were really interested in the project especially the books • Drawback = limited time for the loaning period & the teachers’ prerogative to let students read and borrow • The existing three (3) units of Mobile library are not enough • The project’s possibilities of expansions are already in process.

  30. Discussion and Conclusion: Given that DLSZ library is a vital partner in academic services, it is recommended that such evaluation must be accomplished regularly to assess the needs of the students

  31. Discussion and Conclusion: The school beneficiaries must maintain a logbook for the students who borrowed and returned from and to the Bookmobile

  32. Discussion and Conclusion: The Bookmobile has awakened the desire of students to read and has somehow enhanced their reading and comprehension skills

  33. Discussion and Conclusion: The genuine love for reading developed among the pupils in the public schools is already a great achievement on the part of the principal in the school and the DLSZ librarians.
