Philippine Librarians Census

The University of the Philippines School of Library and Information Studies (UPSLIS) conducted a study of Philippine Librarians from November 2018 to October 2019. This endeavor was the first-ever wide-scale study undertaken to collect the occupational profile of Librarians in the Philippines. The survey was designed to be an online questionnaire via Mentimeter and was presented for dissemination during the 2018 Philippine Librarians Association Inc. (PLAI) Congress at Novotel in Quezon City. To further disseminate, the link was posted on the UPSLIS Facebook account and was shared to library association group pages. A total of 685 responses were recorded which is only 7.5% of the almost 900 registered librarians in the Philippines but can be used in making statistical inference with a 4% margin of error.
