Requirements for 2022 Librarian Licensure Examination Application

According to RA 9246 or the Philippine Librarianship Act of 2003, only graduates of the courses Bachelor of Library and Information Science and Master of Library and Information Science can take the LLE. The applicant must be a citizen of the Philippines or a foreign citizen whose country has reciprocity with the Philippines as regards the practice of librarianship can take the exam.

Here are the other requirements:

    NSO / PSA Birth Certificate
    NSO / PSA Marriage Contract (for married female applicants)
    Transcript of Records with scanned picture and Remarks "For Board Examination Purposes"
    Valid NBI Clearance (First Timers & Repeaters)
    One (1) Certificate of Good Moral Character from any of the following:
        Barangay
        School
        Church
        Employer

There is an application fee of 900 pesos.

I recommend that applicants process these documents as early as possible, especially the Transcript of Records with scanned picture and Remarks "For Board Examination Purposes". Your school documents might take a while to claim from your School Registrar, and the pandemic or other circumstances might cause further delays.

    1. Hi, have you graduated your MLIS? As far as I know, the requirement based on the law (RA 9246) is that you need to have finished the degree and required din sa PRC ang diploma and/or TOR. You may ask PRC to confirm this.
