| Abstract | Collaboration among libraries, archives and museums in the Philippines has been existing for years. Through the experiences of different institutions and seminars held by different professional organizations from the LIS community, this collaborative relationship was further developed and cultivated in the country. Despite the thriving growth of attention given to the libraries, archives, and museums, there is still lack of attention given to local studies that investigate the collaborative efforts of these institutions in the country. In this light, the researcher took an interest to investigate how libraries, archives, and museums in the academe in the Philippines collaborate and to determine how collaboration supports the goals of the parent institution. The respondents for the study were the librarians, curators, and administrators who were mainly involved with the management of the library, archives and museum of the Ateneo de Manila University, University of the Philippines-Diliman and the University of Sto. Tomas. This study presented the similarities in the areas of collaboration, roles of each unit and the best practices in the collaboration in each of the academic institutions. Such areas are exhibitions, curatorial services, book launchings, conservation, preservation, sharing of technology such as digitization and microfilming, sharing of physical area, sharing of collections, sharing of funding, sharing of staffing, sharing of expertise and skills among others. This study is qualitative in nature designed to examine the roles of the library, archives and museum as effective partners for collaboration, and the practices and programs they created and used to meet their own, and overall goals of the academic institutions housing them. Overall findings of the study show that the collaboration of libraries, archives and museum plays an important role in supporting the goals of the academe. It supports a lifelong learning experience for the community |
