An Exploration of the Benefits of an Indigenous Community Learning Center's Mini-school library

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to discuss the benefits of the "lumad" (self-ascription and collective identity of the indigenous peoples of Mindanao, Philippines) school mini library. Additionally, the results of this study will aid the further research of indigenous people's (IP) perspective at the primary school (first six grades) in achieving higher self-esteem levels and increased literacy through the community learning centers' mini-school library.
