Library Orientation
Library Orientation for BE Students. This program aims to orient Grades 1, 7, 11, and transferee students to library facilities, rules and regulations, resources, and services. Participation in this orientation is compulsory for students to borrow library materials. Following the library orientation, students participated in an interactive short quiz via Kahoot to ensure a comprehensive understanding and retention of the presented material.ย
Library Orientation for BE Faculty and Staff Members. It is designed to introduce them to the libraryโs resources, services, and support systems that enhance teaching, learning, and research. This initiative aims to foster a collaborative and well-informed academic community.
Librarians at XUGS offer a variety of library instruction sessions tailored to students at all academic levels based on curriculum plan. These sessions are designed to introduce students to a broad range of electronic and print resources, as well as effective research strategies, to support the successful completion of class assignments, projects, and overall academic work in their respective fields of study.
The instruction sessions are scheduled during the students' designated library periods and typically last for 45 to 50 minutes. In addition to supporting course-specific needs, the program also aims to:
*Enhance studentsโ general research skills
*Improve their ability to locate, assess, and use information resources effectively.
The Grade 7 Library Orientation held last July 14โ16, 2025, and the Transferee Library Orientation on July 25, 2025, were both a resounding success!

From November 11โ15, 2024 the Xavier Senior High Library successfully conducted a hybrid online database user training, bringing together both in-person and online students to enhance their research skills and knowledge of academic resources.
Throughout the event, students had the opportunity to engage with representatives from the libraryโs subscribed online databases. These expert speakers guided participants in accessing peer-reviewed journals and eBooks, developing effective research strategies, and applying tips on proper citation, downloading, and printing.
