The place has improved for over a year. Also it is Air conditioned and Free Wifi still, You can't just borrow a book which is what I wish they should have. That time, OPAC Computers are shut down, which really shocked me since last time, I visited, they are always open. The OPAC computers are convinient, since you don't need to go to a website link on your device to reserve a book. The thing I also want to point out, I got there at 1PM, and I saw the reading room full, I tried to go to the third floor, but the guards didn't allow me. So the question here is, The whole building is huge, you call it a national level, but only one floor of Reading Room? Come on, please create a second reading room, to increase the capacity of Students to be accommodated. Also Happy Philippine Book Festival and Buwan ng Panitikan to everyone.

For first-timers, all you need to do is register to get a library ID. The ID has a barcode used to automatically log entry/exit in the library. The staff are really nice and efficient. They will explain the available resources that you can use. The library is clean and quiet, making it a great place to study. They provide WiFi vouchers so you can easily connect to their network. They have excellent signal reception for Smart network, which is convenient if you have your own WiFi broadband. Also, the restroom on the ground floor is clean and well-maintained.

The place is good and i found that there were many improvements in the area. This is a good place for research, but, with so many information, there are cases that you may not find the information that you need. The librarian help me to use the computer but still I cannot find the poem that I want. There is a portion for thesis, I have used their facility for copyright. On some cases this library is closed, ao much better to check the website or social media because traveling takes time and finding that your time was...
