Hi Ms. Singay:

Greetings from the National Library of the Philippines - Public Libraries Division! Your inquiry was referred to us.

Relative to your request, kindly see attached files. For the design, you may refer to the Copy of PL Data Gathering and Standards. For the number of collections, please refer to the standard of public libraries and IRR of RA 7743.

Unfortunately, for your third query, we do not have any organization chart of a city library. You may instead coordinate with your city library for their organizational chart. Although, we have a sample organizational chart of a provincial library. Let me know if this is okay.

Should you have any questions or require further assistance, please feel free to reach us

Thank you.
