ABOUT

La Salle Bacolod Started in 1952 and the Founding Brothers made sure that a library was available to meet the needs of the academic community. The present Lower Grade Library of the Integrated School is in the same location as the first library. When the High School and College Departments opened in 1953, a room in the High School Department was assigned as the High School and College Library. In 1958, The Boarding Department was converted into Science Laboratory and the College Library was relocated to the ground floor. The Library remained on the ground floor for the next twenty-five years.

 In 1982, through the efforts of Brother President Rafael S. Donato FSC, a new library complex was built to accommodate the increasing library clientele and collection. It was completed and occupied in April 1983 with 13,000 volumes of books.

 Another decade thereafter saw a great mileage in the development of the library. Technology was introduced and it brought a great impact on libraries-staff, management, users, resources, and services.

 In February 1995, the JRR Dizon Foundation Library Technology introduced the global networking of information or the INTERNET and in June 1996, the center provided the College of Engineering, Computer Center, and some offices of the College with INTERNET services.

 On October 19, 1997, the library occupied the ground floor and was renamed the 3-story building Alfredo M. Montelibano, Sr, AFSC Library in honor of the man who was a benefactor of La Salle and who generously donated the land where the University of St. La Salle campus now stands.

 In February 1998, the library spearheaded extension programs giving access to offices of the college unit. Networking has been implemented in cooperation with the Institutional Committee for Electronic Networking (ICEN) to enable direct access to college student's records from the Registrar's Office.

 In 1999, the construction of the Graduate School, College of Law, and Medical Library Building started and on October 31, 1999, the libraries were blessed. The College of Law Library was awarded as the Model Centennial Law Library on June 8, 2001, by the Supreme Court of the Philippines.

 In 2002, the Health Science Library now the Medical Library occupied the 3rd floor of the Professional School Library building and the Multi-Media Room for the use of the College of Medicine.

 In 2012, the Archives was blessed and named Lasalliana University Archives. This serves as the repository of the historical records of the University of St. La Salle.

 In 2016, the Audio-Visual Resource Center now the Instructional Media Center was merged with the College Library and was renamed to Learning Resource Center. In the same year, the Lasalliana University Archives were transferred to Museo De La Salle Bacolod. 

Don Alfredo M. Motelibano Sr. AFSC, Learning Resource Center (LRC), continues to uphold its mission and vision with excellence in serving the academic community and our society.
