DSSC Library

The DSSC Learning Resource Center is the institution’s center for improving and supplementing student learning. It facilitates the requisite instructional activities in the academy, so it is called the learning laboratory. This is where a large amount of instructional materials and references are organized and made accessible to our clientele. Thus, LRC clientele must be familiar with the tools, the facilities, the policies, the rules and regulations of the LRC to optimize the use of these materials.

Brief History

Davao Del Sur State College, located in Digos city, Davao del Sur, is formerly a satellite campus of the Southern Philippines Agribusiness and Marine and Aquatic School of Technology (SPAMAST) whose main campus is located in Malita, Davao Occidental.

On October 3, 2016, Rep. Lorna P. Bautista-Bandigan filed House Bill 3927 entitled: “An Act Removing the Digos City Campus as Part of the Southern Philippines Agribusiness and Marine and Aquatic School of Technology (SPAMAST), Appropriating Funds Therefore and for other Purposes”.

Rep. Mercedes “Didi” C. Cagas filed House Bill 5243 with Rep. Jose Antonio Sy- Alvarado as co-author. The bill was titled: “An Act Converting the Southern Philippines Agribusiness and Marine and Aquatic School of Technology (SPAMAST) Davao del Sur Campuses Into a State College to be known as Davao del Sur State College and Appropriating Funds Therefore”. The bill was filed on March 14, 2017.

Rep. Cagas and Rep. Bandigan agreed to consolidate their respective bills which gave rise to House Bill 6715- “An Act Separating the Southern Philippines Agribusiness and Marine and Aquatic School of Technology (SPAMAST)- Digos Campus in the City of Digos, Davao del Sur from the SPAMAST in the Municipality of Malita, Davao Occidental, and Converting it into A State College to be known as the Davao Del Sur State College, and Appropriating Funds Therefore”. The bill was approved by the House of Representatives on December 11, 2017.

On August 28, 2018, the Senate accepted the request by the Lower House for a conference on House Bill 6715. The Senate approved the conference committee report on November 27, 2018. It was also approved by Congress on the following day.

The Bill was signed into law by President Rodrigo R. Duterte on February 21, 2019. It is now known as Republic Act 11220. Through this law, Davao Del Sur State College became the 112th Public Higher Education Institution in the country.
