On May 22, 2026, the Rizal Library was honored to host an academic exchange and library tour for a delegation of international business leaders. As part of their training in Le Cordon Bleu, members of the Association Progrès du Management (APM)—a network of French business leaders and executives—visited the library. The event brought together French-speaking senior executives from different business industries, including construction, technology, energy, and hospitality.
The visit featured an insightful discussion on the library's role in fostering Ateneo’s intellectual heritage and shaping future leaders, led by our University Librarian, Joenabie Arevalo, and Mark James Cayabyab, Head Librarian of the Reference and Information Services Section. Following the discussion, the executives toured different areas of the library, including the First Pacific Hall, the Special Collections' Microform and Digital Resources Center, and the Ateneo Library of Women’s Writings. This was in coordination with Le Cordon Bleu.
