BRAINITIATIVES-PHILIPPINES (brainPH) PROJECT is my personal contribution to improve the learning of the people through reading particularly in our province, Romblon. Sharing my personal book collection, it is a simple way to encourage young and adults to read novels, short stories and other literary works done by either local and foreign writers. brainPH stands for ‘B’awat ‘R’omblomanon ‘A’asenso ‘I’aangat ‘N’ayong’ Pilipino (Filipino). 

My obsession with books started when I was pursuing my research program at the University of Queensland (UQ), Brisbane, Australia. By 2003, I already started buying books, including magazines on photography and travel. I also created a website intended to this book collection, allowing my readers access to my online mini library. The other easiest way to share is to post book covers or I called it, BOOK FACE – posting of cover of the book with brief description of that book in all my personal blogsites, including facebook.
​

I suppose to launch the brainPH Project in December 2019 through a mobile book library, where selected number of my books will be displayed and people can borrow them in a certain period of time. Unfortunately, due to work load, it did not pushes through but with the current health crisis, I thought it could be a good start to bring these books to Romblomanon, particularly in Odiongan (Tablas Island) area.

 ​The mechanics of borrowing are simple: One requirement is only an ID with photo on it, active cellphone number, and email address as an alternative mode of communication.  One to three books per household is/are allowed for 3-5 days but it can be extended. For special books, only (1) one book per household for 3-5 days. The partial list of these books are in the images above (click it to have closer look). For additional updates and information, visit the Facebook fanpage named, BOOK AKLAT LIBRO.

As of now, there are 123 books that are available - from novels to stories, photography to travel, and other inspirational stories! And more are coming...


If you are interested to borrow, and maybe exceptional for those who are outside Odiongan especially students who are currently enrolled at RSU, you can drop a line below the comment box.

Keep reading!

(P.S.: I also collected copies of ENRICH MAGAZINE published by Mercury Drugstore for almost 5 years now which are also available.)
