Description : UPH's Student Executive Board (BEM UPH) with The Johannes Oentoro Library hold a library training for the purpose of establishing a "Taman Bacaan" near a dump area in Sewan (TPA Sewan). This was a community service event and the purpose is to share our knowledge to society. There are 500 books donated to this "Taman Bacaan". Library helped to train the local on how to run a simple library system for the "Taman Bacaan". First, they need to make administrative book for members and the list of books. Then, we taught them how to input and arrange the book in a systematical order. Second, we briefly trained a simple way to classified books/collections and also how to make a catalog based on the 2 handbooks about classification (DDC) and cataloging the books that we gave to them. Finally, we helped them on how to processed a book starting from the wrapping, stamping, and coding. Thanks to UPH's Student Executive Board (BEM UPH) who also gave their time to help established the "Taman Bacaan" into a better place for the local children.
