THE PURPLE SHELVES HAVE ARRIVED!
In solidarity with the Philippine Group of Library Leaders (PGLL), De La Salle Lipa Learning Resource Center is proud to launch THE PURPLE SHELVES, a nationwide initiative brought to our campus to champion gender equality and inclusive spaces.
Aligned with the national theme “WE for Gender Equality and Inclusive Society” and the sub-theme “Lead like the Babaylans, Filipinas!”, we are transforming our library into a Gender-Responsive Knowledge Hub
Leadership is more than a title; it is the Babaylan spirit of wisdom, compassion, and courage. By embracing these PGLL initiatives, we reclaim our cultural legacy and turn it into a living force for social progress across the Philippines.
What’s waiting for you at the Purple Shelves?
📖Curated Collections: Explore hand-picked resources by women, for women, covering rights, leadership, struggles, and lived experiences.
💜 A Safe Space: A dedicated area to browse, borrow, or simply pause and reflect
👠Empowerment Tools: Resources to help every Juana lead with confidence, data, and vision.
The Purple Shelves isn’t just about books; it’s about building a community where every Lasallian can grow and belong.
By embracing this PGLL initiative, the LRC stands in unity with libraries across the Philippines and the ASEAN region. Together, we are building a community of empowerment where every Lasallian can explore, reflect, and grow.
Visit us at the LRC today, take a photo at The Purple Shelves, and share your favorite find.
