LibSpeak is UP FLIPP’s major event which was pioneered last March 12, 2007 held at U.P. School of Library and Information Studies.  Geared towards promoting awareness of the current state of Librarianship and Information Science and the new image of librarianship, this event was consisted of conference, essay writing and poster making contest only for the high school students for the past two years. Past speakers of the forum were Dr. Juan Buenrostro, Chief Librarian of Baliuag University and Ms. Eimee Rhea Lagrama, former president of the UP Library Science Alumni Association (UP LSAA). Now on its third year, with the inclusion of LIS students from various universities and colleges in the contest, this annual event aims to give people a new and better perception about the field of library and information science (LIS).
