Abstract: The Kollezzjoni Programmi tal-Festa within the University of Malta Junior College Library is made up of publications and pamphlets published annually by local parishes and festa organisations. These publications have proven to be an excellent source of information about local heritage, historical events, history, art, culture, folklore and biographies of local personalities. The aim of this commentary is to highlight the project being undertaken by the Junior College Library. The goals of this project are twofold: to enhance the Melitensia collection within the Library, both in print and online; and to better equip librarians, by enhancing the local authority lists to better suit the needs of the local scene. This collection has also contributed to the standardisation of local subject headings used by librarians.
