Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR)

BARIE Library

One of the policy strategies of our present administration is a policy of transparency with access to information and public documents. The Bureau of Agrarian Reform Information and Education Library (BARIE Library) strives to do this by providing you with a wealth of information on agrarian reform, human resource development, enterprise development, and books and materials for general reference and research. Through the years, our library has been opened to all sectors of the public.

Thus, in order to cope with the changing needs of the DAR public and continuously provide quality services, we will venture in MS Access of books and materials on agrarian reform. This means that a plethora of agrarian related materials can now be easily accessed through an access format. We are also working on the completion of archives of all past Human Resource Development (HRD) materials to serve you better.

We hope that as you make use of our library you will also do your part in sharing the good news of the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program.

Welcome researchers, DAR personnel, and the CARP public!
