Historical Preservation

The Bank once again sponsored the lecture  of  Author/Researcher - Marie Vallejo on preserving WW II documents through digitization. This time, it was held for teachers, researchers, and students in Bacolod City, Negros Occidental.

The lecture was part of the city government’s annual commemoration of Araw ng Kagitingan. In her lecture, Ms. Vallejo presented parts of the Philippine Archives Collection, including “Finding Our Heroes: The Brigadier-General Francisco Licuanan Jr. Memorial Collection, Philippine Guerrilla Files from the US National Archives” and “Memories of our Heroes from World War II.”

Ms. Vallejo said the project is being undertaken to preserve aging documents and spread the records of the Filipino guerrilla’s heroic exploits as research and teaching materials. She added that 280,000 records have already been scanned, uploaded, and made accessible to researchers, libraries, and teachers to date.
