Objective. The study aimed to identify and assess a level of digital knowledge, a level of digital skills, and a level of digital application of the librarians and library staff who are members of MUNPARLAS Library Association, Inc. Methods. Descriptive-correlational research design was used in this study to provide static pictures of situations as well as to establish the relationship between different variables. The respondents of this study are 60 Librarians and Library Personnel who are members of MUNPARLAS Library Association, Inc. Results. Findings revealed that the respondents' level of digital knowledge was very high, with an average weighted mean of 3.39. The respondents' level of digital skills was also very high, with an average weighted mean of 3.25. Additionally, the respondents' level of digital application was very high, with an average weighted mean of 3.52. There was a significant relationship between the respondents' digital knowledge and digital skills, as indicated by a p-value of 0.000, which was lower than the Pearson r-value of 0.812. Similarly, there was a significant relationship between the respondents' digital skills and digital application, with a p-value of 0.000, lower than the Pearson r-value of 0.712. Lastly, there was also a significant relationship between the respondents' digital knowledge and digital application, with a p-value of 0.000, lower than the Pearson r-value of 0.649. Therefore, it is necessary to propose an action plan to sustain the digital knowledge, skills, and application among librarians and library staff at MLAI. Conclusions. The findings of this study underscore the importance of digital literacy in the field of librarianship. MLAI should continue to prioritize the cultivation of digital knowledge, skills, and application among its staff to adapt to the evolving needs of its users and to stay ahead in the digital age.
