I. Project Title: “Fun with Books Free Little Library” A School Reading Enhancement-
Initiative

II. Background and Rationale:

Republic Act 10533 otherwise known as Enhanced Basic Education Act of 2013
provides for the foundation to meet the basic learning need of every Filipino learner. Such
can be achieved by providing learning resources, facilities and opportunities for each learning
program being supported by the said education act.
Pursuant to Deped Order No. 76 s. 2011 re: National Adoption and Implementation of
Learning Resources Management and Development System (LRMDS), establishment of a
School Learning Resource Center (SLRC) is a facility within the school which provides
access to varied learning resources which supplements classroom learning processes and
expands learners’ education experience.
In response to this, Bambang Central School SPED Center managed to put-up a
Learning Resource Center however it could not accommodate all the learners due to the
limited space since the center shares the building with the office of the school principal.
To address the need of not being accommodated at the SLRC and in support to
providing other learning resources, the proponent thought of coming up with a project Fun
with Books-Roving Library. This project also aims to develop love for reading by providing
easier access to reading materials where learners are encouraged to pursue their individual
interest through reading.

III. Objectives and expected outcomes

The project aims to create a roving library in school. It specifically aims to:
1. Create a possibility of bringing books nearer to Bambang Central School children
for them to develop love for reading
2. develop the culture of reading among the children in school
3. effectively contribute in the “Every Child a Reader Program”.
4. build strong linkages with other stakeholders for book acquisition
5. develop the sense of ownership and responsibility among stakeholders.

IV. target Beneficiaries

 The target beneficiaries of the proposed roving library are the 956 pupils and 32
faculties of BCSSC. This could also be extended to the parents and visitors who are inside the
school premises.

IV. Project Description

VIII. Strategies for Project Sustainability

Best results will be published in the FB chat group then at the same time to invite and
source out funds from stakeholders in the municipality and abroad asking them to support the
initiatives. These will also be open to students of Bambang National High School who are in
school for their lunch with their brothers and sisters.
English and Filipino Club officers and members will be responsible in stationing the
Roving Library. They will be grouped into five and whoever are the officers of the day will
utilize the monitoring of attendance in the logbook of the readers. Top readers for the month
will be recognized every last Monday of the month during flag ceremony. This will motivate
and encourage more pupils to go and read books from the Roving Library thus creating an
impact in the development of reading skills among learners.
