QCPL Branch Libraries

Abstract

After a few months QCPL-Novaliches branch had launched “Luntiang Bahay Aklatan” last October 2016, the fruits of the staff’s labor had paid off. Ms. Emerlina Tan initiated the program to promote the “Green Library Theme”. With the help of the Novaliches Library Staff and the Streetsweepers of Brgy. Nova Proper, the idle ground of QCPL Novaliches was planted with mustasa, ampalaya, cucumber, melon, tomatoes, cabbage and bell pepper. This aimed to utilize unused resources and to produce vegetables for everyday consumption. This is also aimed to promote a more eco-friendly environment. Plans of expanding the program is currently being considered to expand to all QCPL Branches. Request for medicinal plants has been done to expand the variety of plants and vegetables in the future. Now, QCPL is promoting eating healthy food not only by the use of books but also in providing green and healthy fruits as well.
