Abstract
The stories of the University Library of the University of the Philippines Diliman, Task Force Detainees of the Philippines, and Bantayog ng mga Bayani (Monument to the Heroes), the libraries that survived during and after the martial law years in the Philippines under the late strongman President Ferdinand Marcos, are told as part of the country’s direction towards transitional justice. The authors argue that the Philippines is experiencing an ‘extended’ transition and that libraries play an important role as memory activists. The narratives and experiences of the librarians and staff show various memory work, reconciliation activities, redress practices, and collaborations.
