Special Problem (Master of Library Science)--University of the Philippines Diliman October 1998. This study is an evaluation of the twenty-five engineering libraries of colleges and universities in Metro Manila. The ultimate goal of the study is to find out if the participating libraries complied with the standards set by the Technical Panel for Engineering Architecture, and Maritime Education (TPEAME). Conducted during the second semester of school year 1996-1997, a two-part questionnaire was used to gather data on the present status of the engineering libraries supplemented by direct observation and interviews. Findings were anlyzed and compared against the TPEAME standards. Results showed that majority of the libraies are operating within most of the standards set by TPEAME. Among the findings are: the objectives of the library are in accordance with institutional goals and aims: heads of the libraries are qualified professional librarians and members of library associations; libraries have existing policies regarding administration and organization of their resources and services. Findings also revealed that thirteen libraries have weak periodical collections. Libraries did not meet the standard for storage space of seldom used books. Specific recommendations were suggested for possible improvement in the administration and organization of the resources and services of the libraries.
