But wait, there's more!
During our Book Nook site visit in Northern Luzon, we stopped by the Book Nook SDO Quirino Library Hub in Gundaway, Cabarroguis, Quirino.
While we were there, the Book Nook SDO Quirino Library Hub prepared a short but meaningful program — including an open mic storytelling session! Our visit began with the Book Nook program overview by Quirino's Learning Resource Management Section, Mr. Felimendo M. Felipe, who is also the site's Area Coordinator.
Afterwards, we were treated with a storytelling session from award-winning guest storytellers Sunshine Bidhong and Rafael Gutierez. Schools Division Superintendent Dr. Madelyn Macalling also shared a message of support. Then, Mr. Ronald T. Bergado, Project Development Officer, introduced NBDB's Lionell Tobes who is also the liaison between NBDB and Book Nook SDO Quirino Library Hub.
The program ended with another book reading session from award-winning storyteller Teacher Jennifer Acosta. Overall, it was a productive visit that further strengthened our collaboration with the Book Nook SDO Quirino Library Hub!
