The purpose of this study was to determine the local literature collection of private higher education institutions’ libraries in Iloilo City. Specifically, this study aimed to determine the collection of local literatures in terms of publication status, type of works and type of materials. Furthermore, the classification systems used in the organization of the collection were also determined. Finally, using the qualitative research and employing the documentary analysis; an annotated bibliography and index of local literatures in these libraries were produced. The findings of the study revealed that there are 128 published and 15 unpublished materials; a total of 143 local literature items in the libraries of the 3 HEIS of Iloilo City; Central Philippine University, John B.
