The USC Filipiniana Library has been hailed as the repository of one of the richest Filipiniana collections in the country. This is a special library designed to be the first stop for research on all aspects pertaining to the Philippines. The collection, in the different Philippine dialects, Spanish and English, is best described as Catholic with strengths in the fields of anthropology, linguistics, natural sciences, and Philippine literature. RIZALIANA is another special library material in addition to its fairly extensive collection. Although the whole collection is accessible to all customers of the University, no one is allowed to take out materials for use outside the library. In addition, the library carefully monitors the use of rare Filipiniana materials.

Here are some rare Filipiniana materials:
