I worked for 8 years for the Science and Technology Information Institute of the Department of Science and Technology, Philippines. I was part of the team that developed STARBOOKS or the Science and Technology Academic and Research-Based Openly Operated Kiosks in 2011. My paper acceptance on STARBOOKS to the 2014 IFLA World Libraries and Information Congress (IFLA WLIC) paved the way for it to be awarded the ALA Presidential Citation for International Library Projects in 2015 (the first for the Philippines) and the PAARL's Outstanding Library Project of the Year in 2016.
