Fourteen state universities and colleges (SUCs) in the country received digital library services from the Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center/Aquaculture Department (SEAFDEC/AQD), which is celebrating its 46th founding anniversary. The International Association of Aquatic and Marine Science Libraries and Information Center Digital Fisheries Libraries contain over 26,000 publications that may be freely accessed by users through their laptops or smartphones. The latest donation brings to 35 the number of SUCs in the country already using the digital library boxes, said Stephen Alayon, head of the Library and Data Banking Services Section of the SEAFDEC/AQD.
