The Bienvenido N. Santos Literary Museum @ DLSUM

Picked up this bit of news while I was at my part time job today~

Works of the celebrated Filipino fictionist Bienvenido N. Santos have found a home in the recently inaugurated Bienvenido N. Santos Literary Museum at the DLSUM library. This literary museum has gathered together a rare collection of Santos’ mementos, ranging from photographs, video clips, awards, original manuscripts and published works. It also has some new material featuring interesting anecdotes about the late fictionist, and contains some significant things that helped him come up with his works. An example of this is the typewriter that he borrowed from Dr. Cirilo Bautista, another icon of Philippine literature.

Beyond the things on display, the BNS Literary Museum will also have exhibitions exploring different aspects of his ingenuity. Lectures, workshops and other activities are also scheduled regularly in the museum for students and visitors.
