The library has separate seating areas for male and female students with all time CCTV surveillance and broadband facility. We take pride in mentioning that our library is connected to a spacious reading room which is fully air conditioned and has wi-fi and computer facilities. We have made it open for the society as anyone with a nominal fee can avail it and since it is open 24*7 it has proven to be a bliss for young students perusing professional courses like CA, CS, etc. We have ambitious plans to enrich the library even more in near future.
