Advancing digital innovation at the University of Mindanao!
From February 19–20, 2026, our librarians, staff, and IT personnel actively participated in the DSpace 9.0 Training held at the AVR 4, Library Building, UM Matina Campus.
This two-day capacity-building activity strengthened our technical expertise in repository management, digital preservation, and archiving, further enhancing the University’s institutional repository system.
We were honored to have Mr. Stephen B. Alayon, Associate Professor from West Visayas State University in La Paz, Iloilo City, and Mr. Elvi S. Nemiz, Senior Information Assistant from the Library and Databank of the SEAFDEC Aquaculture Department in Iloilo City, as our resource speakers. Through their valuable insights, hands-on demonstrations, and best practices in digital archiving and repository management, our team gained deeper knowledge in ensuring long-term preservation, accessibility, and integrity of scholarly works.
Together, we continue to strengthen our commitment to innovation, effective archiving, and excellence in scholarly communication at the University of Mindanao.
Onward, UM!
