Abstract

This study employs collection mapping to evaluate the university library's resources, aligning to curriculum or academic board programs supporting student professional development. Using mixed methods of qualitative and quantitative by complementarity, it focuses on 13 programs, referencing the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) Memorandum Order. Findings indicate adequate varied book collections, ranging from "not recent" to "slightly not recent." Annual periodical subscriptions for board programs almost meet CHED criteria. Last three years, an average of 14 volumes per program was acquired. The university library effectively supports these board courses, yet recommendations include enhancing book collections, subscribing to journals and databases, and adherence to CHED standards for resource quality and balance.
