The Binangonan Municipal e-Library and Museum received a donation of grade school and junior high school textbooks from a private school in the municipality, expanding access to learning materials for local students and residents.
The donation drive, spearheaded by both the Calumpang and Batingan campuses of the Child Jesus of Prague School (CJPS), aims to expand learning materials available to the public and foster an enriched academic environment for the youth across the municipality.
Representatives from the Binangonan Municipal e-Library and Museum expressed their profound gratitude to the school administration, faculty, and students for their generosity.

Vice Mayor Russel Ynares, whose initiative led to the establishment of the municipal library and museum, said that the turnover of books represents more than a charity drive; it serves as a cornerstone for building long-term institutional partnerships between the local government and the private educational institution.
"This CJPS and municipal government initiative is just the beginning of a stronger collaboration between our local educational institutions and the municipal government. By working together, we can continuously elevate the quality of education and provide better learning opportunities for all Binangonan students," Ynares said.
The newly donated textbooks will be integrated into the library’s growing collection, ensuring that public school students, researchers, and young learners have ready access to high-quality reference materials for the current school year.
Officials from both CJPS and the local government led by the full support of Mayor Rhea Ynares, are optimistic that this collaborative framework will inspire other private and public organizations to invest in community-based learning initiatives, driving sustainable educational development across the province.
The municipal library, in turn, is donating books and other learning materials to public schools in the municipality as part of its community literacy and e-learning programs for the people of the municipality.
