GRABRARIAN (grabrarian.epizy.com)

It refers to the e-resources delivery from the LRC databases to the students’ or faculty’s email, upon request. It aims to make the research of students and teachers faster and easier.

The BRafeNHS students, who have limited access time to the LRC, are among the main beneficiaries of this program.

Through GRABRARIAN, they would only have to send email or message the librarian the books they need so the librarian will be able to prepare them before 6pm for pick up.
